Featuring continuously adjustable counterbalance and tilt drag, the Vinten Vision blue3 Fluid Head is a suitable companion to cameras weighing from 6.6 to 14.6 pounds. Counterbalance and tilt drag can be set precisely to your setup so you don't have to deal with "almost" perfect balance. Cameras down to 4.6 pounds are supported with the separately available blueBridge accessory.

Using the 75mm standard ball mount, this head can be balanced atop a tripod with a 75mm bowl. Using bubble level, you can properly frame your horizon lines for perfect horizontal panning. The bubble level itself is illuminated for visibility in dim environments. One press of the bubble level yields 15 seconds of illumination to save battery.

The sliding balance plate included with this head is compatible with the included 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 screws for locking down DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, or camcorders. A safety catch ensures that your camera won't fall off the head while the plate is loose. For controlling the head, a fixed-length pan handle is included, and it can be mounted on either side of the head on locking rosettes.
