Miller Arrow 55 Tripod System Overview

The Miller 1726 Arrow 55 tripod system consists of the 1028 Arrow 55 fluid head, 694 telescoping pan arm, 860 Arrow camera plate, 1576 Sprinter II 2-stage carbon fiber tripod, 990 Sprinter II/HD mid-level spreader, 475 Sprinter II/HD rubber feet, and the 872 Arrow soft case.

The Arrow 55 is a 100mm true fluid head intended for use with heavily configured ENG/EFP camcorders weighing up to 55.0 lbs (25.0 kg). It features 7-step fluid drag, 4-step spring counterbalance, and an oversized 100mm sliding quick-release camera plate. The LED illuminated bubble level and drag controls are rear mounted for easy operator access and monitoring, and a second rosette is provided for left- or two-handed configurations. For peace of mind, the pan and tilt locks utilize caliper disc brakes for reliable, short-throw fixing.

The Sprinter II 1576 2-stage carbon fiber tripod is intended for run-and-gun ENG work where rapid setup and leveling are as important as rigidity and strength. It features Sprint-Loks™ for dependable, one-touch stage locking without bending over, and carbon fiber composite leg tubes for superior strength and vibration absorption. For easy transport at the end of the shoot, built-in leg clips hold the legs together, and the integrated handle is positioned for perfect balance with the head still mounted. Used in conjunction with the included 990 mid-level spreader, complete stability is assured regardless of the working surface.

Designed and built for actual daily use, the roomy Arrow 872 soft case answers operator frustrations with real solutions. The head-end cradle is padded and reinforced for protection and puncture resistance. The carrying strap is asymmetrically positioned for optimal balance, and a convenient ID pocket simplifies travel.

As a system, the 1726 system represents a thoughtfully engineered support designed to meet and exceed the needs of uncompromising ENG professionals. For your peace of mind, it carries a 3-year parts and labor warranty, and worldwide support.

question

Air commpressor?
Asked by: Anonymous
According to Miller, you can use a small air compressor or even a bicycle foot pump to set the air pressure after you have set up the camera on the pedestal. Add a little more air than you need so when you disconnect and lose some air, you still can fine tune with the air that is left.
