Overview

504X fluid video head is the evolution of the hugely successful 504HD.

It's a more compact and lighter version that finally comes with flat base (base diameter 75 mm), developed to meet the needs of the most demanding videographers.

The head is made from a brand-new catching aluminium design, and has a maximum payload of 12kg.

Utilising Manfrotto’s new fluid technology, the camera head allows you to capture judder-free smooth motion pans and tilts. It's never been easier for the operator to create premium-quality video capture, thanks to a 4-step counterbalance system which can carry payloads of up to 6.5 kg at 55mm C.0.G. That makes using a wide range of different cameras easier and more practical.

Two easy link 3/8'' thread connections allow an external monitor or other accessory equipment to be fitted on the head side. On the left side there is a cap cover on the 3/8” easy link connector to avoid cutting during usage.

The sliding-plate side-lock attachment enables quicker set up of the camera, keeping video equipment stable and balanced. Head leveling is simple thanks to the clever backlit levelling bubble.
