This combination allows you to quickly compensate for uneven surfaces using the tripod legs leveling base. The system features a total of three bubble levels, and the flat base of the AirHed allows the fluid head to sit lower than if it were a bowl base fluid head when mounted on other platforms such as sliders and car mounts. The Jay tripod legs feature eight-layer carbon fiber construction, and each leg can detach from the leveling base for use as a monopod or boom arm. Optional accessories allow you to turn the leveling base into a Hi-Hat to get remarkably low-angle shots with the AirHed Cine.
