Miller CX8 Tripod System Overview
The Miller CX8 Fluid Head with Solo 75 2-Stage Alloy Tripod System is perfect for videographers on the go. It's light in weight yet offers payload support of up to 12 kg. The quick-deploy 2-stage folding design means there's no need for a spreader. You can shoot low to the ground or above spectators' heads with ease, thanks to the large height range. The wide payload range is supported by a 15+0 step counterbalance and five fluid drag positions, plus a zero drag position. Check out the individual parts of this tripod system for more information.
Miller CX8 Fluid Head
The Miller CX8 Fluid Head is designed to accommodate a wide payload range with 16 steps of counterbalance. Pan, tilt, and counterbalance can all be set to zero, enabling even the lightest of cameras to be supported. Maxed out, this head is rated to support camera setups up to 12 kg, adequate for small cinema cameras with rigs or medium sized ENG camcorders. Securing your camera or rig is easy. The sideload plate design enables you to simply drop in your camera without the alignment issues posed by rear-loading variations. The plate offers 6 cm of sliding range to balance your rig.
To survive fast-paced shooting environments, the CX8 is die-cast from a lightweight, yet durable metal alloy with composite polymers and precision ball-bearings for smooth mechanical operation. Even in harsh conditions, the CX8 will perform reliably. The base of the CX8 is a 75mm ball for mounting to compatible tripods and grip equipment. An illuminated bubble level makes it easy to level the CX8 in dark environments. A fixed length pan handle is included, and a second rosette is available for attaching an optional second pan handle.
