About Vinten V8AS-AP2M

The Vinten V4045-0001 8AS has been developed for professionals using the latest portable digital camera configurations throughout the Video production industry. Improved access to controls, rapid camera attachment using the new Vinten Sideload system and simple, durable brakes are all designed to cope with the demands of professional operation. Combined with Vinten's Perfect Balance and LF drag technology, this makes the Vision 8AS the ideal tool for a wide range of challenging, professional applications.

The Vinten 3821-3 Pozi-Loc tripod is a precision-engineered two-stage, aluminum tripod. It offers a 100mm-bowl and Pozi-Loc leg clamping system. This lightweight, sturdy tripod is quick and easy to set up and provides excellent operational flexibility.

The revolutionary Spread-Loc is a fully adjustable, geared mid-level spreader, controlled by a single lock knob.
