SLIK 505QF Overview

A heavy-duty tripod constructed to handle the weight and size of full size video cameras. Positive action fluid head for smooth panning, separate pan and tilt control locks, single action, quick release camera platform with safety lock make this the true professional model. Center column is gear driven. Legs are tubular design with braces for maximum stability.

The Video Series tripods bring together modern design with ultra-smooth controls. All share the distinctive looking, two-tone titanium leg locks for quick, responsive leveling adjustments. The fluid effect panheads assure professional looking videos without annoying jumps and jitters, and rock solid support for your still photos.

Slik's unique and patented engineering, plus a remarkably wide selection of tripods, it is easy to choose just the right one to hold your camera steady at any angle, on virtually any terrain, for applications indoors or out. Decades of experience and a wealth of accumulated photographic knowledge, combined with state-of-the-art engineering, have been instrumental in helping Slik create tripods that are amazingly light, yet offer remarkable strength and stability.

I haven't really had a chance to try it but in my testing I love how smooth the head move the fluid head works really well.
