The Sachtler DV-8SB tripod system includes the 0806 DV-8SB fluid head, 5182 DA-100L 1-stage aluminum tripod, 7001 ground-level spreader, and the 9309 hard case.
The 'SB' in the DV-8SB stands for SpeedBalance, as it has a 12-step indexed counterbalance system for fast, repeatable setups. Similar to larger filmic fluid heads, it features 5-step fluid drag, a self-illuminated Touch Bubble for leveling with the 100mm half-ball base, and tap holes for mounting cine-style finder supports.
The DA-100L Dural™ aluminum ENG tripod features a die-cast 100mm receiver, 16mm dual leg tubes, and cine-style rotary stage clamps. The single-stage design delivers maximum torsional rigidity, and expediates setup. Used in conjunction with the included 7001 ground-level spreader, payload integrity is ensured, and delicate floors are protected.
At the end of the shoot the entire support package fits comfortably into the 9309 hard case, and you'll walk away with confidence knowing that the 0860 DV-8SB system carries the robust Sachtler 3-year warranty, as well as worldwide multilingual technical support.
