Description
The Leofoto FH-5 Fluid Video Head is a compact professional fluid head designed for precision, smooth operation, and dependable performance. Based on the design of the larger FH Series fluid heads, the FH-5 delivers the same intuitive controls and fluid movement in a lighter, more compact package.
The FH-5 features a 9-step counterbalance system with a 0–7 kg (0–15.4 lbs) balance range, along with 3-step pan and tilt drag adjustment plus a zero-drag setting for both axes. This allows operators to fine-tune resistance for smooth, controlled camera movements across a wide range of camera setups.
The clamp system features a traditional precision screw-knob locking mechanism that provides secure, accurate camera mounting. Compatible with Arca-Swiss standard quick-release plates, the screw-knob design allows for precise clamping pressure and accommodates slight variations in plate dimensions, ensuring a solid, reliable connection for professional video applications.
