Leofoto LVF-163C+FH-10 Video Tripod and Fluid Head Set
Unlike traditional video tripods that rely solely on a mid-level spreader, the LVF Series takes versatility to the next level. It comes equipped with an adjustable spreader system that allows users to switch effortlessly between ground and mid-level spreaders, adapting to different shooting environments. Whether you are working on uneven terrain or need to adjust the tripod height while maintaining stability, this feature makes the LVF-163C perfect for dynamic shooting conditions. Crafted from lightweight yet durable carbon fiber, the tripod is designed to fold down into a compact size, making it portable and easy to transport without sacrificing performance.
Each leg of the LVF-163C is built with six tubular sections, doubling the stability compared to conventional tripods that only have three. This design ensures a firm and steady base, capable of supporting a maximum load of 8 kg (17.64 lbs), making it perfect for heavy-duty professional cameras. The tripod’s ergonomic handle, made from a combination of stainless steel, TPE, and other high-quality materials, is easy to install without tools and offers anti-twist security with four location pins for enhanced control.
Paired with the tripod is the Leofoto FH-10 Fluid Video Head, engineered for smooth, precise movements. The fluid head features an intuitive tilt-lock system and fluid tension adjustments, allowing for effortless tilting and 360-degree panning, making it suitable for various shooting scenarios. With eight steps of counterbalance and three steps of pan and tilt drag, plus a zero-drag option, this fluid head offers remarkable control over camera movements. Its quick-release camera plate, equipped with an automatic locking system, ensures fast attachment and detachment while providing secure camera placement during operation.
The FH-10 also features two rosette pan-handle fittings, offering greater flexibility in movement, and an illuminated bubble level for precise adjustments, even in low-light conditions. The head can accommodate payloads between 2 kg (4.41 lbs) and 8 kg (17.64 lbs), making it compatible with a wide range of camera setups. Whether capturing complex movements or steady shots, the FH-10 ensures smooth operation and professional results.
With a maximum height of 1740 mm (68.5 inches) and a compact folded length of 910 mm (35.87 inches), the Leofoto LVF-163C+FH-10 Video Tripod and Fluid Head Set combines portability with high-level performance.
