At the Bench: Cartoni Focus 22 & Maxima 30 Fluid Heads

Today I had the chance to check out the new Cartoni Focus 22 fluid head system. This head will fit a wide variety of cameras accommodating payloads from 6.5 to 48.5 lbs.

In this blog I will give you a tour of the features and also show you Cartoni’s unique Smart Lock Spreader system. These spreaders allow you to make your standard legs into babies. At the same time, the locking mechanism makes folding up these legs quick and easy.

Additionally, I also take a look at the Maxima 30 fluid head. The Maxima 30 inherits the attributes of its predecessors but only weighing in at 27 lbs; it handles payloads of 7 – 66 lbs. I will give you a tour of the Maxima’s functions as well as camera mounting options.
