Bogen - Manfrotto 519 Pro Fluid Video Head with Quick Release & Interchangeable / Adjustable Counterbalance...

The Bogen-Manfrotto 519 pro video head for cameras up to 22 pounds is a compact, yet heavy-duty fluid video head capable of accommodating a payload up to 22 pounds. The 519 is unique in that it is the only video head on the market encompassing both interchangeable counter-balance springs, and an adjustment knob. By combining the interchangeable springs and adjustment knob features, videographers are able to easily interchange a vast array of cameras of various weights, as well as quickly fine tune the perfect balance point of whatever camera is being used, all with just one video head. The 519's two interchangeable springs provide one spring for cameras in the two- to 10-pound range, and a separate spring for cameras within the 11- to 22-pound range. As an additional feature, fluid drag in this Pro video head is easily controlled with a large numbered knob for repeatable settings and reference, allowing drag to be easily adjusted from the highest possible setting, down to zero drag, for the finest control through 360-degrees of pan, and +91.5- to -90-degrees of tilt. This unit has a head height of 5.9 inches, and a head bowl of 75 millimeters, and includes both independent pan and tilt locks.  more
