Davis & Sanford FX13 3-Way Pan and Tilt Fluid Video Head with Selectable Counterbalance for DSLR Camera, 13 Lbs Capacity

• Ingenious FX13 head provides impressive versatility
• Unique and extremely useful built-in counterbalance that can be turned on and off to accommodate video outfits in a wide variety of sizes, shapes and weight distributions
• In the "off" position, the tilting action feels smooth and well damped, as a well designed precision fluid head should
• Turn the knob to "on" to activate built-in counterweight and it provides a smooth, well-damped tilting action but with increasing resistance the farther you tilt it backward or forward past the mid-point. This evens out the tilting action and prevents it from being under-damped at the extremes, an important consideration when shooting with large, heavy cameras, especially pro-caliber video cameras and DSLRs with long lenses
• It also prevents the camera from swinging forward or backward in an uncontrolled manner so you can shoot with confidence. To underscore the versatility factor, it comes with two quick-release plates, a standard 1-1/2 x 1-5/8-inch and an elongated 1-1/2 x 3-inch to accommodate practically any camera
