Sachtler

Supporting cameras and prompters weighing up to 77 lb, the System 25 Vario 1-70 from Sachtler allows you to rapidly change camera positions and make camera moves on smooth interior and exterior surfaces by a single operator. Designed to provide a comfortable eyeline for both seated and standing subjects, the system allows extremely smooth height adjustments of 16.1" within the shot, powered by a pressurized air system charged by the included manual pump. Safely move the pedestal system over the floor in either standard or crab steering mode, and the wheel's cable guards help protect you from accidentally rolling over cables.Frictionless Leakproof Fluid Damping with Seven Levels of Drag A prerequisite for perfect pictures is a panning movement without jerks and vibrations. Sachtler's patented damping system offers individual modules that are frictionless and contain no hydraulic oil. They are permanently leakproof. The damping action of heads is identical across both horizontal and vertical planes and offers you seven steps of drag, for smooth camerawork under the toughest of rough conditions. You can completely disengage the drag for fast panning without affecting the dynamic counterbalance system.Touch & Go Quick Release / Automatic Locking System With the Touch & Go system, the camera plate is secured to the camera while the mating balance plate is mounted on the fluid head. All you need to do is slip the camera into position, engage the mechanism, and the camera is locked firmly in place. When finished, just disengage the latch and go. When you set the camera up for the next shot, you have all the original settings. It also features a safety lock lever that prevents inadvertent disengagement of the camera latch.Sliding Balance Plate The sliding camera mount and plate with a 4.4" (150mm ball base) or 3.9" (flat base) sliding range allows you to compensate precisely for a variety of configuration weights, ensuring perfect balance across the horizontal plane. Most importantly, once adjusted, the settings cannot be lost.18-Step Dynamic Counterbalancing System Built with torsion springs, the dynamic counterbalancing system compensates for torques as the camera tilts, preventing the camera from inadvertently tipping and ensuring that it is positioned securely at any tilt angle, freeing you to concentrate fully on your camerawork. Its 18-step counterbalance allows adjustments in nine stages and fine-tunes by half-step function. It can be activated and deactivated individually. Independent from the damping system, they work silently and without the need for maintenance.Safe at Any Temperature Pressure or temperature does not influence the damping system. It has an operating range from -40 to 140 F and works without friction. Shoot wherever you want, from torrid heat to cold climates. None Vibrationless vertical/horizontal brakes for maximum safety in fast-paced reporting situations.None Built-in illuminated bubble for horizontal leveling uses a conventional battery and ensures easy leveling, even under unfavorable lighting conditions.None Load capacity of 80 lb is ideally suited for HD and widescreen cameras.
