Vector 950 Active - C

Vector 950 Active Fluid Head c/w all cables includes full size telescopic pan bar, standard short pan bar, male wedge plate and mitchell base.

Vinten has developed the Vector 950Active pan and tilt head System to interface with the Canon Optical Shift Image Stabiliser (""Shift-IS"") technology.

The result is a new stabilisation system for sports and events broadcasts. The Vector 950 Active features integral real-time digital electronic positioning for precise and accurate data, which communicates with the stabilisation systems of Canon's DIGISUPER100AF and DIGISUPER86AF long-field zoom lenses. The result is that the intuitive and natural motions of the camera operator provide instant and active control of the Shift-IS stabilisation. The Vector 950 Active comes complete with a standard four bolt base, single telescopic pan bar and wedge adapter. It offers an increased capacity of up to 120 kg / 264 lbs providing perfectly balanced tilt.

By combining the characteristics of the TF drag control with infinite perfect balance adjustment, the effort needed to control the effect of a heavy, moving camera payload remains constant, predictable and minimal- not a major distraction.

The combination of Vinten's Vector 950 Active and Canon's Shift-IS stabilisation is ideally suited for use in sports broadcast and other production.

• Instant, active picture control designed for fast paced HD OB
• Sharp, stable pictures -no trace of lag after pan or tilt movements
• Minimal amount of processing required for final broadcast output
