Manfrotto 504HD Head and 546BK Tripod Kit

The Manfrotto 504HD, 546GBK Kit combines the professional 504HD system with the mid- level spreader 546GB tripod. This is a two-stage, extremely rigid, stable system that is able to carry loads up to 16.5lb (7.5kg).

The 504HD Pro Video Head has a bridge design that improves the head's rigidity and its PAN friction control is fast, simple to fine-tune and protected from knocks. All structural components are made from aluminum, with the PAN axis rotation unit using ball bearings to obtain smooth, totally vibration-free controlled movements that can be directly adjusted using the head's FDS variable friction system. FDS on both the PAN and TILT axes also ensures that the head works perfectly at all temperatures, with all types of equipment and under all loads. Ergonomically improved lever and dial designs combine with the new friction index to give you complete control over the 504HD. The 504HD has been designed to offer a load capacity of up to 7.5kg (16.5lb) making it suitable for a huge range of camera equipment. The CBS counterbalance system has 4 presets for a full range of camera weights (0.2.5kg-5.5lb, 5kg-11lb and 7.5kg-16.5lb). Leveling the head is easy thanks to the 75mm diameter hemisphere and the back-lit bubble level. Two 3/8" threads on the top plate allow accessories (such as monitors and arms) to be directly and securely attached to the head, which helps cut down set-up time, keeps your camera hot shoe free and, saves you from using another clamp.

The 546BK Tripod has a die cast aluminum crown with a built-in 75mm bowl. The tripod's telescopic mid level spreader helps set leg angles accurately, and its Leg locks are secure and reliable. The tripod has spiked feet with rubber overshoes that provide solid grounding on both uneven terrain and smooth floors.The tripod can be used with various dollies and is equipped with bag making transportation of the kit easy.
