Manfrotto
516 Fluid Head
Specifically
designed for the latest DV camcorders, the 516 Pro Video Head is compact,
light, and can support cameras up to 22 lbs. (Replaces the 3066 Video Fluid
Head).
The 516 is a cost effective high
performance video head equipped with fluid cartridges that provides
continuous adjustable drag control. This system gives quite a wide range of
friction control down to "zero drag" and operates on both pan and tilt axis.
Other features include separate pan and tilt locking mechanism, a fixed
counter balance spring of 16.5 lbs load capacity at a center of gravity of
5", two telescopic pan handles, and a bubble level.
The 516 can be mounted on a flat base tripod with a 3/8" female thread
attachment, or by attaching the 3141BALL to the head base, allowing it to
fit a 100mm bowl.

Sliding quick-release plate
for balancing the camera supplied with 1/4-20" and 3/8" camera
screws plus VHS locating pin. |
The round black knob on the
side of the head is used to adjust the tilt friction; the
tilt-locking lever is on the opposite side. |
The notched black wheel
below the quick-release plate mechanism is the pan friction control;
the pan-locking lever is just below it near the bubble level. |
