Optimized for mobility, this Vinten flowtech 100 Tripod System includes a flowtech 100 carbon fiber tripod with ground spreader, a Versine 240 fluid head, and a wheeled soft case for easy transportation. When assembled, the camera-mounting system supports up to 53 lb, has a working height range of 23.6 to 69.3", weighs 19 lb, and folds down to a length of 33.7".
The Vinten flowtech 100 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Ground Spreader eschews the common single or double carbon fiber tube design; instead it has redesigned the shape of the legs for improved torsional strength. The legs weigh just over 7.1 pounds, yet they can support a payload of up to 66 pounds, and extend from a minimum height of 16.9" to a maximum height of 62.6" when using the included removable ground spreader. Each leg features a single clamping lever that locks and unlocks the sections.
Each leg extends or retracts independently from the other two, and when it is detached from the spreader each leg can pivot without affecting the other legs. This is especially useful when working on rough or uneven terrain. You can remove the spreader completely and lock each leg in one of three positions, so you can work without a spreader if you wish. This enables you to spread the legs extremely wide for low shots while the tripod legs maintain their torsional stability. The dual spikes at the end of each leg provide extra grip when working on softer ground, and you can snap on the included rubber feet onto the dual spikes for better grip when working on hard or delicate surfaces. Included with the legs are an attachment mount and a carry handle that mount on the side of the bowl using the 3/8"-16 threaded mounting holes.
Combining strength and mobility with a professional feature set, the Versine 240 Fluid Head from Vinten supports rigs up to 53 lb while weighing only 10.3 lb when fully equipped. Engineered for roaming production setups, the Versine 240 is compact yet capable, offering ±90° tilt, independent TF30 pan and tilt drag adjustment, and a continuous counterbalance for smooth, precise control at any angle. Its lightweight magnesium chassis, all-metal construction, and illuminated operator-side controls make it equally suited for news gathering, sports coverage, or live event broadcasting.
With a 100mm half ball base and sliding quick release plate, the Versine 240 ensures secure, versatile mounting for a wide range of cameras and lenses, including heavy 40x zoom systems. Three rosette mounts offer flexible attachment of the included pan handle and other accessories, while the integrated illuminated bubble level simplifies alignment in fluctuating environments.
