System FSB 4 flowtech75 MS

When you need quick set up and precise balancing while using a smaller camera, the Sachtler FSB 4 Fluid Head doesn’t mean you have to compromise on performance. Speedbalance technology gives you rapid weight compensation for payloads of up to 4 kg, while the snap and go side loading mechanism means mounting handheld cameras and DSLRs can be done from the side of the tripod.

Being able to work quickly and efficiently also means being able to get the perfect shots easily. Once you have balanced your camera, patented Sachtler drag always gives you subtle and smooth movement. Three horizontal and vertical grades of drag also help you work intuitively and quickly, while always being sure your gear isn’t letting you down. The 75 mm head fitting has a large sliding range of 120 mm, helping to give the flexibility to work in the way that gets you the best results.

Being able to quickly set up and level a shot in any environment and terrain gives you more time to be creative and get the perfect shot. The Sachtler flowtech® 75 MS carbon fibre tripod’s mid-level spreader and rubber feet mean that each leg extends or retracts independently of the other two. Each leg has an individual clamping mechanism so that you can loosen and lock them from a single location near the 75 mm bowl. This deployment speed is paired with an easy to use ergonomic, lightweight design that can follow into the most intense environments.

The carbon fibre design of the Sachtler flowtech® 75 aktiv MS only weighs 3.5 kg, but is capable of supporting up to 20 kg. The design also provides a high level of torsional stability so that you can be sure your pans will always stay completely level with no twisting. When you’ve got the perfect shot, the legs can be folded up while remaining attached, where a magnetic lock holds them in place until you release them again.
