The video system includes the Manfrotto Nitrotech 612 Fluid Video Head and the 645 Fast Twin Tripod in aluminum.
Control Every Move
The Nitrotech 612 Manfrotto fluid video head is provided with an innovative nitrogen piston mechanism, which allows continuous counterbalance. Nitrotech 612 ensures precise control of a camera with accessories weighing from 4 to 12kg (8.8 to 26.4 lb). Extremely smooth movement is guaranteed thanks to the fluidity function on both pan and tilt. The camera can be attached easily, safely, and quickly to the 180mm sliding plate and secured to the head with a side-lock mechanism. External monitors and accessories can be securely mounted on the head thanks to a 3/8 inch Easy-Link equipped with an anti-rotation mechanism. The Nitrotech 612 has a flat base mount with a standard 3/8 inch thread that is highly versatile for different support combinations (tripod, slider, jib, or crane).
Functional Mechanism
The 645 FTT Fast Twin Alu Tripod features double tubing and FAST Lever Lock technology for the most robust support ever. The tripod is provided with a 2 in 1 half ball: a standard 100mm bowl compatible with a 75mm adapter (available as an accessory) to enable the use of a wider range of video heads. It also features a middle spreader lock. However, the 3-angle selectors make the use of a spreader a matter of optional preference. This range was developed with the primary objective of making video shooting easier by reducing set-up times and maintenance. The synchronized closure mechanisms between the upper and lower locks, enable videographers to control the entire leg with a single lock and get to work in record time. The new tripod provides maximum versatility, supporting the use of a broad choice of heads, and ensuring the utmost rigidity while also being extremely lightweight. Moreover, it is compatible with the 2 in 1 ground and middle telescopic spreader (sold as an optional accessory) and it features a 3-angle selection mechanism for easy setup. It is equipped with spiked feet with rubber overshoes for a firm grip and adaptability to the most diverse shooting locations.
Fast Twisting Lock Technology
The unique twist locking mechanism means you can set up your tripod in one easy move. When we designed the fast tripod, we wanted to combine three things, speed, stability, and ease of use. This technology ensures the tripods deliver on all three criteria. It takes seconds to set up your tripod, the additional M-Lock and brace ensure stability even on uneven terrain, and the tripod can be adjusted and locked with a simple twisting motion. Go from maximum to minimum operating heights in seconds, so that you can capture that fleeting sunset or keep to your shoot timetable without spending precious minutes setting up.
Fast Lever Lock Technology
The extra M-lock guarantees enhanced leg stiffness, ensuring perfect operation even in rainy or sandy environments. The closure mechanism consists of mechanically machined components, which ensures their flawless coupling precision. The speed with which the tripod can be locked and unlocked makes it extremely versatile: users can get from maximum to minimum operating heights in just a few seconds. They can also enjoy the same speed when opening and closing the tripod.
