Sachtler System FSB 18T Mk II ENG CF MS

Lightweight and easy to transport, this FSB Mk II system with carbon fibre ENG tripod blends classic functionality with modern performance, giving you the stability and control to capture the shot with confidence.

With the power to support payloads up to 18 kg (39.7 lbs) the lightweight FSB 18T Mk II offers 15 steps of counterbalance allowing you to finely match your camera rig and quickly dial in balance time after time. 7 steps of Sachtler drag ensure smooth movement at all speeds and in any environment, while the Touch & Go platform allows one-handed mounting of the camera into a preset position, so you're always ready to capture the next shot.

FSB Mk II brings the classic features and proven ergonomics of Sachtler to smaller camera setups. With smooth drag and finely tuned counterbalance, it delivers the repeatable performance professionals rely on. The fluid head has a traditional tiedown design, and its illuminated PrismBubble gives fast, all-angle confirmation that your shot is on the level helping you set up quickly and shoot with confidence.

The Sachtler ENG carbon fibre tripod gives you optimal stability and reliable performance in every environment. Lightweight and twist-resistant, the carbon fibre design features a 100 mm bowl with tube diameter of 22 mm. Dual extension legs feature the Sachtler quick clamping system, to securely lock them in position. In this system an adjustable mid-level spreader and rubber feet are included, and a padded carrying bag completes the package.

Tough enough for the field, refined enough for the studio. FSB Mk II is engineered with premium materials and precision components for smooth operation in any environment.
