Flexshooter Pro (Black Edition) Multi-Tripod Head/Telephoto Tilt Head with Screw Clamp black anodized

Innovative Ball-in-Ball Design for Maximum Precision

The Flexshooter Pro (Black Edition) multi-tripod head/telephoto head uses the groundbreaking ball-in-ball design. This functional principle ensures exceptional stability by mounting the outer ball in a plastic insert. This allows you to precisely align and fix your camera without any sagging. This technique is ideal for photographers who value maximum accuracy.

Flexible Use as a Classic Ball Head

Use the Flexshooter Pro as a classic ball head to benefit from versatile freedom of movement. The inner ball allows for a tilt from -33° to +33°, while the outer ball covers a range from -90° to +55°. This flexibility makes the tripod head the ideal companion for a wide variety of shooting situations, from landscape to wedding photography.

Telephoto Head with Spring Balance for Heavy Lenses

The Flexshooter Pro impresses as a telephoto head with an integrated spring balance system, specifically developed for use with heavy telephoto lenses like the Canon EF 400mm f/2.8 L IS III or the Nikon 600mm f/4E FL ED VR AF-S NIKKOR. The spring mechanism ensures smooth tilting forward and backward and prevents the camera from sagging unintentionally. This is particularly crucial when working with heavy lenses.

Perfect for Single-Row Panoramas

Thanks to the separate panorama base and a 360° swivel range, the Flexshooter Pro is perfect for single-row panoramas. The precise bubble level allows for exact alignment, enabling seamless transitions between shots. This results in impressive panoramic shots without parallax errors.

Versatile All-Rounder for Any Photography Equipment

Whether for DSLM, DSLR, or medium format – the Flexshooter Pro is a versatile all-rounder that can adapt to various photography equipment. The screw clamp is Arca-Style compatible and easily accommodates cameras and lenses with a 38 mm dovetail. Weighing only 0.737 kg and with a maximum load capacity of up to 10 kg, it is both lightweight and robust enough for demanding outdoor use.

Safety and Care Instructions

Please note that the 3/8" mounting thread is only 8 mm long. Do not use longer screws to avoid damage. The balls are self-lubricating and should only be cleaned with clear water and dried with a microfiber cloth. Ensure that the used clamping profiles are at least 55 mm long and have safety stop screws to ensure maximum safety.
