The OConnor Ultimate 2575E Kit is a high-performance fluid head and tripod system designed for professional cinematographers and filmmakers working with heavy-duty camera setups. This comprehensive package combines the OConnor 2575E fluid head with essential accessories, including the Euro-style quick release platform, telescoping pan handle with extension, Mitchell and 150mm ball bases with tie-downs, delivering ultimate stability, flexibility, and ease of use for demanding shoots. Perfect for supporting large digital cinema cameras, this kit ensures smooth, precise movements, reliable counterbalance, and a secure connection to your tripod system.
The OConnor Ultimate 2575E Fluid Head is designed to accommodate a wide range of camera configurations, supporting payloads of up to 133 pounds at a 4-inch center of gravity. The head features OConnor's patented sinusoidal counterbalance system, providing true, accurate balance throughout the tilt range, allowing the camera to stay in position without additional effort. With a ±90° tilt range, the 2575E fluid head delivers incredibly smooth, controlled pan and tilt movements, making it ideal for cinematic shots. Its stepless pan and tilt fluid drag system offers precise control for both fast whip pans and slow, smooth framing shots. The lightweight magnesium housing ensures excellent performance and reliability, while the carbon fiber cover shields the balance mechanism from damage.
Designed with cinematographers in mind, the Ultimate 2575E fluid head includes four integrated handle mount rosettes, allowing for optimal positioning of an optional pan bar, ensuring comfort and control in any shooting scenario. The large Euro-style quick release system with a touch-and-go plate enables rapid and secure mounting and demounting of the camera, saving valuable time during setup and teardown. The head also comes with a 12-inch pan handle with a 30-degree bend and a 11.5-inch pan handle extension for flexible control, ensuring you can adjust the handle to your preferred orientation. For added versatility, the head is compatible with both the Mitchell flat base and the 150mm half ball base, with corresponding tie-downs included for secure attachment to various tripods.
The OConnor Euro-Style Quick Release Platform is specifically designed for the 2575E fluid head, allowing for fast camera mounting and dismounting. The platform's two-step lever securely locks the touch-and-go plate in place, ensuring the camera stays safely attached during filming. The included telescoping pan handle (2575-137) features a 30-degree bend, offering a more comfortable grip and precise control. This handle is attached to the fluid head using a lever-based screw and can be mounted on either side of the head for left- or right-handed use. The extension handle (2575-135) adds extra comfort and reach, allowing for better ergonomics during long shooting sessions.
The kit also includes the OConnor Mitchell Base (C1275-1010), which allows you to mount the 2575E fluid head onto any Mitchell base tripod. The Mitchell tie-down (C1234-1018) ensures a secure connection to the base, preventing any movement during operation. For added flexibility, the 150mm Ball Base (08414) allows for mounting on 150mm bowl tripods, and the corresponding 150mm Tie-Down (C1234-1017) ensures a stable, secure fit.
With the OConnor Ultimate 2575E Kit, you get a complete, professional-grade tripod head and support system that is built to handle the most demanding camera rigs. Whether you're filming on location or in the studio, this kit provides the stability, flexibility, and precision needed for high-quality cinematography.
