New 2575D Fluid Head

The next generation of the highly successful 2575 series head is available from January 2009. The 2575 ?D? retains a large number of features and functions from the popular ?C? series but includes many new features.

The new platform has all the controls on the camera operator?s side of the head. (i.e. left side).

The platform release lever has a one touch finger actuated safety release catch. This allows for one ?finger? or hand action to undo the safety catch and open the lever.

Dual platform scales.

The platform now has 4 handle rosettes.

The left side has a ?soft? hand rest similar to the 120EX.

The head is now black.
