Vinten System Versine 360 2-stage CF PL GS SC Carbon Fibre Tripod System

Developed in partnership with many of the world’s largest OB companies, Versine 360 is the ultimate fluid head for fixed camera positions without box lenses. Vinten engineers have worked closely with camera operators, visiting broadcasts worldwide to truly understand their needs. The result is a design with extended payload, unique features, and exceptional control, carefully engineered to solve real-world challenges and meet the exacting demands of live television.

In this system the Versine 360 is combined with a 2-stage EFP aluminium Pozi-Loc tripod and ground spreader for maximum stability. Vinten tripods use precise geometry and the highest quality materials to optimise torsional rigidity without compromising operational essentials such as weight, reliability, maintenance and speed of set-up. The Pozi-Loc tripod has an extensive height range and its positive action leg clamps clearly show when the tripod leg is locked.
