As a discerning professional videographer or cinematographer working with camera packages weighing up to 38 lbs (17.2 kg), you are very particular about your support system. Tired of renting tripods of questionable working order? Not to worry--an entire professional system with all of the features you expect is within your reach: the Libec LS-85(2C) Professional 2-Stage Carbon Fiber Tripod System.
The foundation of the LS-85(2C) is the robust T98C two-stage carbon fiber tripod with dual-tube construction. Carbon fiber composites are lighter and stronger than aluminum, and offer the added advantage of absorbing vibration. In contrast, time-tested rotary clamps firmly lock each section, regardless of temperature fluctuation. Hard rubber feet terminate each leg to stand firmly alone, or in conjunction with the included SP-1 ground-level spreader. For uncomplicated, secure transport, a convenient retractable cable quickly hooks all three legs together when collapsed.
Seated firmly in the 100mm leveling bowl, the H85 fluid head includes one PH-7 pan handle, but has a second rosette for dual or left-handed configurations. For varying lens and camera combinations, the continuously variable counterbalance and sliding camera plate provide fingertip handling up to the load limit of 38 lbs (17.2kg). Whip pans? Slow motion sequences? No problem--continuously variable true fluid drag provides precisely the right amount of dampening you need with a twist of a knob.
As a hard-working professional, you demand strength, versatility, and reliability from your field kit. With the Libec LS-85M(2C), you'll find that and much more, backed with the ironclad Libec 3-year warranty.
