SmallRig FSD16 FreeSpeed Heavy-Duty Aluminum Alloy Tripod 5579

SmallRig FSD16 FreeSpeed Heavy-Duty Aluminum

Featuring a one-step leg deployment system, the tripod allows rapid height adjustments across a wide working range from 3 to 7', making it well suited for high-angle shooting and dynamic production environments. The three-section aluminum legs use a knob-lock design and a mid-level spreader to maintain rigidity under load while enabling continuously adjustable leg positioning.

Paired with a 75mm bowl-mounted fluid head, the FSD16 supports camera systems up to 22 lb and incorporates a six-step counterbalance system rated up to 13.2 lb for controlled tilt return.

Independent pan and tilt drag controls with four damping levels provide smooth motion, while a pan/tilt locking system, bubble level, and quick release camera plate support efficient setup and precise operation. Despite its heavy-duty build, the tripod folds down to 3.3' for transport and weighs 13.1 lb.
