Planned to be showcased at this year's IBC show, the Flowtech™ tripods enable camera operators to set up and begin using the tripod in an instant.
“In the arctic, from atop mountains, on the beach or on the sea, flowtech has been used and tested in every single environment you can imagine. We believe it’s the next evolution in tripod technology, and it promises to transform the way camera operators work,” said Tobias Keuthen, Director of Global Product Marketing Management. “flowtech is the type of innovation that happens when two legendary brands from the broadcast, film, and video industries join forces.”
Flowtech 75 The revolutionary new tripod technology is designed to simplify and accelerate camera operator's workflows with instant and easy setup, versatile height range and exceptional torsional stiffness. Lightweight and easy to transport, flowtech 75 is specifically designed to be carried comfortably on the camera operator’s shoulder, with magnetic locks ensuring that the tripod legs are stable during transport. flowtech 75 can be deployed as low as 26 cm (10 inches) and as high as 153 cm (60 inches) without the detachable spreader, and between 63 cm (25 inches) to 157 cm (62 inches) with the spreader.
