Vinten System Vision 10AS FT MS

The Vinten V4046-0001 Vision 10AS is a modern fluid head for shoulder-mount camcorders. It supports cameras and accessories from 14.3 to 37.5 pounds. This 100mm ball base fluid head offers illuminated level, a sideload system for attachment and LF drag control for a professional Vinten feel.

The Vinten flowtech 100 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Mid-Level Spreader and Rubber Feet eschews the common single or double carbon fiber tube design; instead, it has redesigned the shape of the legs for improved torsional strength. The legs weigh just over 9 pounds, including rubber feet and spreader, yet they can support a payload of up to 66 pounds, and extend from a minimum height of 20.5″ to a maximum height of 61″ when using the included removable mid-level spreader. Each leg features a single clamping lever that locks and unlocks the sections.

Each leg extends or retracts independently from the other two, and when it is detached from the spreader each leg can pivot without affecting the other legs. This is especially useful when working on rough or uneven terrain. You can remove the spreader completely and lock each leg in one of three positions, so you can work without a spreader if you wish. This enables you to spread the legs extremely wide for low shots while the tripod legs maintain their torsional stability. The dual spikes at the end of each leg provide extra grip when working on softer ground, and you can snap on the included rubber feet onto the dual spikes for better grip when working on hard or delicate surfaces. Included with the legs are an attachment mount and a carry handle that mount on the side of the bowl using the 3/8″-16 threaded mounting holes.

The Vinten Soft Tripod Case is padded and designed to carry a Vinten Vision 3, 6, 8, or 11 (2-Stage) Tripod System. It has interior and exterior pockets for documents or accessories, multiple handles, and a padded, adjustable shoulder strap.
