Miller CX8 Fluid Head
The Miller CX8 Fluid Head is designed to accommodate a wide payload range with 16 steps of counterbalance. Pan, tilt, and counterbalance can all be set to zero, enabling even the lightest of cameras to be supported. Maxed out, this head is rated to support camera setups up to 26.4 pounds, adequate for small cinema cameras with rigs or medium sized ENG camcorders. Securing your camera or rig is easy. The sideload plate design enables you to simply drop in your camera without the alignment issues posed by rear-loading variations. The plate offers 2.4" of sliding range to balance your rig.
To survive fast-paced shooting environments, the CX8 is die-cast from a lightweight, yet durable metal alloy with composite polymers and precision ball-bearings for smooth mechanical operation. Even in harsh conditions, the CX8 will perform reliably. The base of the CX8 is a 75mm ball for mounting to compatible tripods and grip equipment. An illuminated bubble level makes it easy to level the CX8 in dark environments. A fixed length pan handle is included, and a second rosette is available for attaching an optional second pan handle.
Miller 75 Sprinter II 2-Stage Carbon Fiber Tripod (Mid-Level Spreader Ready)
The Miller 75 Sprinter II 2-Stage Carbon Fiber Tripod is a quick-setup solution for a tripod head with 75mm ball base. Its lightweight, dual-action flip locks and rigid carbon fiber construction allow for durability without compromising usability in ENG, EFP, and other pro video applications.
Unlike many traditional multistage designs, both flip locks are located on the same section for easy reaching, no matter the height setting. The feet have integrated steel spikes to add stability on rough or uneven terrain. The fast setup is complemented by an in-line carry handle for portability on set or in the field. Compatible mid-level spreaders, rubber feet, and dollies are available separately.
