The SVH-501 is a compact and lightweight fluid head weighing only 540 g. Despite its low weight, the head can support up to 3 kg in any position, ensuring smooth panning and tilting movements. It provides ideal damping during movement, allowing your video actions to flow seamlessly and making it easy to track your subject. The angled pan handle can be rotated a full 360 degrees, allowing you to position the handle at the best angle for your situation.

The head features a 70 mm Arca quick-release plate that can be mounted from the top of the head. The locking knob is large and easily accessible when the camera is mounted. Additionally, the head has a retractable safety stopper that prevents the plate from slipping off the head in case you forget to tighten it. The safety stopper can also be rotated out of the way to use an Arca camera plate from another manufacturer. The head is particularly well-suited for use with telescopes.
