Cartoni HF1200 Focus 12

The Cartoni Focus 12 is a 100mm fluid head rated to 26 pounds, built for ENG and studio cameras that need a dependable balance and drag package. Continuous fluid drag on pan and tilt delivers even resistance through slow tracking and quick repositions, while the plus or minus 90 degree tilt range covers steep up-and-down framing. Its sealed mechanism holds calibration across a -40 to +60 degree Celsius operating range.

A sliding camera plate with a Euro-style quick release system lets operators mount and fore-aft balance a rig in seconds, and the telescopic orientable pan bar tunes reach to the shooter. An illuminated bubble level squares the horizon in the dark on any 100mm bowl tripod, and Cartoni backs it with a five-year warranty after registration.
