PROFESSIONAL VIDEO TRIPOD WITH FLUID DRAG HEAD WF718
First impressions:
Right out of the Box
Strong, stable and a high quality finish.
Tripod:
This is a four section tripod held in place by flip locks with strong rubber feet.
I found the tripod to be very sturdy having all the qualities of a high end manufacture.
It has good independent leg spread to a total of three positions as seen at the end of this video review. The center column extends fully with a groove cut down the center to avoid rotation. The legs are held in place with what appear to be stainless steel hex bolts
Fluid Drag Head:
The WF718 Fluid Drag Head is made from what appears to be aircraft grade aluminum, it has a very good black finish to match the tripod. At first operation of the pan motion I found it to be stiff but after a few turns it became very fluid and almost silk like It has a locking knob on one side and an tension knob on the other going from very stiff to very smooth. The tilt motion is also very smooth
The cameras mounting plate has a locking function so you can easily remove and replace the camera. The main sliding mounting plate has a safety detent ‘pin’ that can be removed with the supplied tool. Witness makings help replacing the camera to it’s original position, helps when using follow focus and matt boxes.
As seen in CheesyCam’s review of the 717AH Video Fluid Head, the mounting collar and pan tension knob also clear the mounting surface, making it ideal for slider and dolly projects.
Over all I rate this with very high grades. 5 out of 5 Stars
