Sirui VH-20 Professional Fluid Video Head
To create beautiful professional videos, you need to have a video head that provides smooth movements and transitions. The new Sirui VH-20 Professional Fluid Video Head has a fluid system for smooth panning and tilting, featuring 3 different resistance settings plus a freewheeling position for fast horizontal and vertical movements.
The vertical tilt movement has a spring-assisted mechanism for added support and auto-return to the neutral position.
You can make forward and backward camera position adjustments on the head for balance and alignment very quickly and easily. The Quick Release platform has a dual safety lock system to prevent the camera from accidentally falling off when the primary locking mechanism is loosened. You must push the secondary release button to remove the camera from the video head.
Superb Flexibility
By turning the horizontal panning dial from 0 (no resistance) to 1, 2 or 3, you increase the drag to slow and smooth out your panning (360?). The same is true with the tilting dial. At 0 position, the head moves quickly up and down (+/-90?) ? and the spring mechanism helps to bring the head to a neutral position when you release it. As you add more resistance (dial in higher numbers), you smooth out your tilts. When you combine both panning and tilting motions with some drag resistance, you will achieve a very fluid, professional look to your videos. You can also lock panning and/or tilting, so no movement occurs at all.
Lightweight, yet strong!
The precision-machined aluminum Sirui VH-20 video head weighs only 4.6lb (2.1kg), but, it can hold up to 33lb (15kg) ? a serious video head! To make horizontal alignment of the head extra easy, there are 2 bubble levels ? one on the base of the head (with an LED for low-light viewing) and one on top of the video head (a Sirui first!). To attach the video head to a video tripod like the Sirui VT-2003/ 2203, you?ll need a Sirui Y75B Leveling Ball Set. This simple device screws into the VH-20 and enables you to precisely align the video head, even when the tripod legs are uneven. Just twist to loosen, make your adjustment and twist to lock it in place.
