Fancier Professional Heavy Duty Video Camcorder Tripod Fluid Drag Head Kits by Fancier WF717 Black
by armando S
A tiny background on my experiences. I am a professional cinematographer and camera operator. I chiefly use Bogen/ Manfrotto, Libec, and O'conner gear. I have lots of experience with nice solid pro gear. I bought this on a lark being that the cost was so nice, and I figured I would give it a try before purchasing a tripod/ head and drop close to a grand. I love it! It is light, but long lasting. a bit short, but put it on a tripod dolly and it fixes that issue. The head is smooth and actually lovely. I would say it is about on par with a 503. impressed. My only complaint is that the spreader is fixed, and on top of that it is plastic and I highly doubt it will support a nice size sand bag. If this had a nice spreader I would have given it three stars. All in all, I am happy with the acquisition and this is a great product. I would not use it for anything heavier than 8-10 pounds tho.
