Miller Cx14 Fluid Head
- Product Code: ga199833
-
The Miller CX14 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 30.9 pounds, suitable for broadcast, cine-style, or DSLR cameras. 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 CX14 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 CX14 will perform reliably. The base of the CX14 is a 100 ball for mounting to compatible tripods and grip equipment. An illuminated bubble level makes it easy to level the CX14 in dark environments. A pan handle with a 15.4" fixed length is included and a second rosette is incorporated for attaching an optional second pan handle.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. I will be upgrading from a Benro H8. I know this head is WAY better. My main complaint with the Benro is, the maximum drag is really weak. I want heavy drag that you really have to push on so slow movements are highly controlled. Is the heaviest drag on this head really stiff?
A: Yes not only is the Miller more stiff at its maximum setting it also offers more steps in between the lightest and toughest setting.
Q: 2. What is the temperature rating of this head?
A: This head has a Temperature Range between -40° to +149°F.
Q: 3. Is there a minimum weight for counter balancing ?
A: Range is 5.5-11lbs.
Q: 4. Is this a good enough head to handle a fully rigged out FS7 with a 70-200 zoom or cinema prime lens? Thanks
A: This has a load capacity between 2 to 20 pounds. Just as long as your rigged out camera does not go above 20 pounds it is a great choice. Keeping it below 20 pounds should be very possible with the FS7 and that lens.
Q: 5. Can this be mounted directly to an rrs tripod using the 3/8female on the bottom of the flat?
A: The Mounting Base is a Flat base with center 3/8 inch female thread, 3 x M5 threads and 2 x ¼ inch threads. This head is designed to connect to most any tripod model that supports 75mm bowl adapters using the following tie down https://bhpho.to/3MUnbYx. If the tripod you work with has a Male 3/8 tread it could also attach to that.
Q: 6. Does the Gitzo Gimbal Fluid Head have a flash bracket that attaches to the head? Will the Wimberly bracket fit on the Gitzo head?
A: Wimberly makes two kinds of bracket. One mounts directly to the head. This probably would not work. Wimberly also makes a bracket designed to fasten on top of Wimberley plates or replacement feet. Assuming you were using the appropriate sized Arca Swiss style plate or foot (Wimberley, Kirk, RRS, or others on your telephoto lens, that style of bracket will work. (It is also a superior design to competitors' flash brackets, in that it can be used with a variety of lens tube diameters, and it can be used with the lens/camera combination even when not mounted on any head!)
Q: 7. Do you have any distributer or retailer in india thank you
A: We are only in New York City and we ship world-wide. If you add your items to a B&H shopping cart, you can calculate the items costs, shipping methods, time for delivery, any taxes and total costs very quickly.
Q: 8. does it come with a pan bar?
A: You are correct. The video head would include a pan bar for panning and tilting.
Q: 9. Hi was wondering what is the weight for this fluid head
A: The FSB 10 weighs 6lbs/2.7 kg.
Q: 10. Can I just attach this to a tripod that has a 60mm wide flat base with a 3/8" screw?
A: The Sachtler FSB 4 Fluid Head requires a 75mm bowl tripod. The base is not flat. Tripod example that would work with the FSB4 Head. Sachtler 75/2 Carbon Fiber Tripod (75mm) BH #SA752CF
