OConnor Ultimate 2560 Kit - 2560 Fluid Head with Euro Quick Release, Pan Handle/Extension, Mitchell Base/Tiedown and 150mm Base/Tiedown in Black Finish

The OConnor Ultimate 2560 Kit is a high-performance fluid head system designed for digital cinema cameras, offering unmatched stability, precision, and flexibility. Perfect for use with large-format cameras like the ARRI Alexa or any lightweight digital cinema rig, this kit provides a comprehensive solution for filmmakers who demand smooth and controlled camera movements. Whether in the studio or on location, this fluid head system delivers the performance needed to handle heavy payloads and maintain cinematic fluidity in every shot.

The OConnor Ultimate 2560 Fluid Head is engineered to support up to 66 pounds at a 6-inch center of gravity, making it ideal for professional digital cinema cameras and studio setups. Weighing just 16.2 lbs, this head is designed to provide both strength and portability. The patented sinusoidal counterbalance system allows for precise, consistent balance throughout the tilt range, preventing the camera from tilting forward or backward on its own. The stepless, smooth pan and tilt fluid drag system ensures ultra-smooth camera movements, whether you're performing quick whip pans or making the smoothest long lens framing adjustments. The fluid head also comes with a large Euro-style quick release plate, making it easy to mount and dismount large camera rigs quickly and securely. The included pan handle and 11.5-inch extension provide flexibility for adjusting camera positioning, while the independent pan and tilt locks offer full control during shots. The head's adjustable drag and counterbalance system ensure that your camera remains stable and correctly positioned for any type of shot.

Included with the 2560 fluid head are two base options: the Mitchell base and a 150mm ball base, both with tie-downs, allowing for expanded tripod compatibility. Whether you're using the fluid head on a Mitchell or 150mm ball-based tripod, the included bases ensure secure mounting and stability for all types of camera setups. This level of versatility is crucial for filmmakers working with different rigs and setups across various shoots.

The OConnor Ultimate 2560 Kit also includes the essential components for enhanced stability and support. The 150mm ball base provides a reliable connection for tripod mounting, while the Mitchell base offers compatibility with industry-standard tripods. The kit also comes with an illuminated bubble level for precise leveling, making setup easier and faster. With the inclusion of a 12-inch pan handle with a 30-degree bend and a pan handle extension, this system is designed for easy adjustments, ensuring smooth and controlled camera movements during shoots.

In addition to the fluid head, the kit comes with the Mitchell base and 150mm ball base adapters with tie-downs, offering expanded compatibility with other tripods. The fluid head is designed for filmmakers who demand the best in stability, precision, and ease of use, making the OConnor Ultimate 2560 Kit an invaluable addition to any professional filmmaking or production setup.
