The Ultimate 2560 Fluid Head Package from OConnor is designed for
use with the current crop of digital cinema cameras. Weighing less
than 18 pounds, 2560 is capable of supporting camera payloads up to
66 pounds at a 6" center of gravity above the platform, making it
well suited for cameras such as the ARRI Alexa in a portable
configuration or any lightweight digital cinema camera in a full
studio configuration. The head comes packaged with both a Mitchell
base and a 150mm ball base adapters with tie-downs for expanded
tripod compatibility. It also comes with a large Euro-style quick
release for rapid mounting and dismounting of large camera rigs, a
pan handle, and a pan handle extension.
Crafted for cine-style shooting, the head design delivers cinema
standard positioning of controls, including brakes and rosettes,
for easy and intuitive use. The 2560 fluid head also features
OConnor's patented sinusoidal counterbalance system for accurate
balance at any point in the tilt range. In combination with the
step-less, smooth pan and tilt fluid drag, the 2560 delivers
control and stability for digital cinema shooters.
