Description
The Leofoto FH-5L Fluid Video Head is a compact professional fluid head designed for precision, smooth operation, and reliable performance. Based on the design of the larger FH Series fluid heads, the FH-5L delivers the same intuitive controls and fluid movement in a lighter, more compact package.
The FH-5L 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.
The clamp system features a robust, adjustable lever-operated locking mechanism that provides fast and secure camera mounting and removal. The adjustable lever is compatible with a wide range of Arca-Swiss standard camera plates, ensuring a secure fit across different plate designs while maintaining quick and reliable operation.
