The Manfrotto 503HDV Fluid Head w/535 2-Stage Tripod & 75mm Half Ball Kit from B&H is a lightweight, professional tripod system consisting of the 503HDV fluid head, 535 carbon fiber tripod, and the B20BALL 75mm half ball. With its combined weight of less than 10 lbs and a height range of 15-72", this video support package is a sturdy solution for medium- and larger-sized camcorders. Able to quickly set up and break down with ease, the combo of one of Manfrotto's most popular video heads with the lightweight stability of the 535 makes this perfect for run-and-gun shooting and other demanding video applications.
503HDV Fluid Head
The continuously-variable fluid drag system of the 503HDV provides just the right amount of dampening for any shot on your list; from whip pans to slow motion, just dial in drag to touch. This capability, in conjunction with the 3-step counterbalance, delivers the type of finger-tip camera control normally found on much more costly production fluid heads.
535 Tripod
With its carbon fiber tubes and magnesium die castings, the 535 video tripod combines great stability, high load capability, and great maximum height with an ergonomic, easy-to-use and compact design. In addition, a leg angle selector has been developed for adjusting leg angles in a quick, easy and precise way.
