Sachtler DV 8 SB Aluminum Tripod with DV-8SB Fluid Head Specifications

About Sachtler DV 8 SB Aluminum Tripod with DV-8SB Fluid Head

SpeedBalance... With its payload of 26.4 lbs, the DV8 SB Fluid Head offers high-precision and extremely fast counterbalance to all digital camcorder operators. The head is called SpeedBalance, because it features 10 step counterbalance, greatly reducing set-up time.

In addition to finer counterbalance graduation, SpeedBalance heads also have an increased payload range, including a reduction in minimum payload. This makes them ideal for lightweight camcorders such as those from the DVCAM, HDV and DV classes.

The Fluid head DV 8 SB features 75 mm tripod fittings and is thus perfect for news gathering. Another feature of the new fluid heads is their self-illuminated Touch Bubbles that make balancing in poor light conditions even easier.

The DA 75 Long 1-Stage Tripod for DV Users. With its compact dimensions, this tripod is an indispensable companion. The proven Touch & Go system enables fast changeover, so camera operators can go from using the tripod to shooting from the shoulder within a matter of seconds. In combination with the DV 8 SB Fluid head this tripod system is ideal for MiniDV camcorders starting from around 1 kg / 2.2 lb.
