The Atlas 7 Mini Fluid Head from Ronford-Baker is a fluid-cushioned free head that supports up to 121 lb. Depending on the length of your camera and lens, you can control pan and tilt actions to 360° and use the head with a wide variety of platform widths, employing different quick-change spacing blocks and riser plates. The height of the platform is adjustable to suit the camera's center of gravity. A pan handle is included with the head, along with quick-change risers and pan-and-tilt adapters inside a rigid aluminum case.
