Sachtler FSB 8 MKII Tripod System Overview

Pull off cinematic camera moves with remarkable precision and fluidity while shooting with camera setups weighing up to 26.5 lb virtually anywhere with this Sachtler System FSB 8 Mk II Sideload and 75/2 Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs with Mid-Level Spreader and Bag. The system is lightweight and travels packed in an included bag for ease of travel and provides a stable shooting platform for cinematic pans and tilts. The Sideload S camera plate securely locks your camera to the head by popping it in from above for fast attachment. It provides 4.7" of travel for balancing your camera on the head, with 15-steps of counterbalance, 7 x independent fluid drag setting for pan and tilt, and a 0 setting for all, which allows you to tune the head to match the needs of your shot for smooth operating and cinematic camera moves.

The head allows you to tilt forward so you can tilt straight down and tilt almost straight up as well, plus the 75mm half ball has an integrated flat base for additional mounting options. The two-stage carbon fiber legs are strong, stable, and corrosion resistant while being lightweight and easy to use. The system has a height range of 31.9 to 67.3" when using the included mid-level spreader, which simplifies shooting on uneven/rocky terrain, and even stairs without having to remove the spreader. The legs feature a 75mm bowl base for quick leveling of your head and collapse down to just over 34" in length for travel.

Sachtler FSB 8 MK II Fluid Head with Sideload Mechanism

Fast to work with and lightweight at only 5.72 lb, the Sachtler FSB 8 MK II Fluid Head with Sideload Mechanism supports up to 26.4 lb of camera and accessories, and with its 15-steps of counterbalance adjustment, you can tune the head to work with the lightest of cameras. The head features a 75mm ball for quick leveling, and the independent drag adjustment and tilt locks permit you to adjust and move the head with precision to tune it to match the needs of your shot.

The head allows you to tilt forward so you can tilt straight down and tilt almost straight up as well. Pan and tilt have seven independent drag settings, plus a zero setting for no drag at all. Borrowing from the aktiv system, the bubble level has been improved, not only is it illuminated, but now you can see the bubble level from the side, as well as when looking down on the head, for intuitive leveling from almost any position.

15-Step Counterbalance

The 15-step counterbalance settings let you adjust the head to neutralize the weight of cameras up to 26.4 lb, so the head remains in the position you set it and does not tilt forward of back because of the weight of your camera. This allows you to tune the head to match the weight of your cameras, allowing you to work equally well with extremely lightweight cameras as well as cameras weighing up to 26.4 lb. The zero setting provides you a completely free movement if you want.

Frictionless Leak-Proof Fluid Damping

Frictionless leak-proof fluid damping with 7 x levels of drag, for smooth pictures while panning, without jerks and vibrations. Identical across both horizontal and vertical planes, and allows complete disengagement of drag for fast panning
