The Acebil CH8(F) Fluid Head is a professional fluid video head designed to support cameras and accessories weighing up to 55 pounds, with a 100mm half ball for quick leveling. It features an 8-step counterbalance to adjust the head for use with loads ranging from 0 to 44 lb; the counterbalance also has a zero setting. Pan and tilt are independently adjustable, and each has eight steps of drag, plus the zero setting for completely free movement, such as whip pans/tilts.

The head features a sliding baseplate for balancing your camera, and it has both a 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 tie-down screw. An illuminated bubble level helps you set the level of the head. The head also features two pan handle attachment rosettes, enabling you to mount the included pan handle onto either side of the head.
