Sachtler aktiv6 FT75 GS - aktiv6 Fluid Head with Flowtech 75 GS Carbon Fiber Tripod and Ground-Level Spreader in Black Carrying Bag

The Sachtler aktiv6 FT75 GS Tripod System combines the cutting-edge aktiv6 fluid head with the lightweight Flowtech 75 GS carbon fiber tripod, complete with a ground-level spreader, to create an ideal solution for high-performance videography. This system offers seamless flexibility, precision, and stability, designed to support camera rigs weighing up to 17.6 lbs. With its innovative SpeedLevel technology, sideload camera plate, and smooth panning and tilting, the aktiv6 FT75 GS system is built for both professionals and serious filmmakers. The system also includes a padded carrying bag for easy transport and storage of the complete kit.

The aktiv6 fluid head features the revolutionary SpeedLevel technology, allowing for extremely fast and secure mounting and leveling of your camera. The SpeedLevel system eliminates the need for traditional tie-down knobs by using a clamp and stud mechanism, making setup much quicker and more efficient. This fluid head is designed to support rigs weighing up to 17.6 lbs, making it perfect for DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and digital cine-style cameras. The head includes a sliding balance plate with a 1/4"-20 screw and a locating pin, offering 4.7" of sliding range for easy balancing of various camera setups. The counterbalance is finely adjustable with 15 incremental steps, allowing for perfect tuning, even for the lightest cameras. The head also features three independent drag settings for both pan and tilt, with a zero setting for both, ensuring you can adjust the head's responsiveness for each shot.

The Flowtech 75 GS carbon fiber tripod is engineered for maximum stability and ease of use. Weighing just under 7 lbs, the tripod can support up to 44 lbs of camera and accessories, ensuring smooth, stable movements even with heavier setups. The tripod's carbon fiber construction delivers improved torsional rigidity, preventing unwanted vibrations and ensuring precise, fluid motion when panning or tilting the camera. The tripod legs feature a two-stage, three-section design that allows for a height range of 16.14 inches to 62.2 inches when using the ground-level spreader, providing a versatile height range for various shooting situations. The tripod legs are independently adjustable in height and angle, making them perfect for uneven terrain or tight spaces. The legs also feature a lever lock system for quick and secure height adjustments. For added stability, the dual spiked feet ensure a firm grip on soft surfaces, while the removable rubber feet provide extra protection when working on hard surfaces.

The ground-level spreader included in this system ensures the tripod legs remain evenly spaced for optimal stability during operation. The spreader's adjustable arms allow for quick and easy setup, while the flexibility to remove the spreader altogether provides even more adaptability. Whether you need a more compact setup for tight spaces or a wider spread for low-angle shots, the spreader gives you full control over your tripod configuration.

This tripod system is completed by the inclusion of a durable, water-resistant padded carrying bag. Constructed from high-density 900D fabric, the bag offers excellent protection for your gear during transport. The foam-lined interior cushions your equipment, while the full-length zipper provides quick and easy access to the system. The bag also features multiple carrying options, including a handle and an optional shoulder strap, ensuring that you can easily transport your gear to and from shoots.

Perfect for professionals who need a reliable, versatile, and easy-to-use tripod system, the Sachtler aktiv6 FT75 GS Tripod System delivers exceptional performance and value. Whether you're shooting indoors, outdoors, or on uneven terrain, this system provides the stability and precision you need for capturing flawless footage.
