Overview
The Skyline 90 Fluid Head with Mitchell Base is a heavy duty head designed to meet the challenging requirements of outside broadcast productions. Reliability and ease of setup, smooth pan, tilts and diagonals, plus user ergonomics, form the hallmark of this revolutionary head.
The Skyline 90 features continuous counterbalance control which ranges from zero to 165 lbs. (75 kg.) at 12" (30 cm) above the centre tilt axis and 15+0 selectable fluid pan-tilt drag positions to ensure the optimum drag for any lens focal length.
With a sliding platform featuring 300mm of sliding range that glides smoothly and effortlessly with a full payload, the Skyline 90 easily balances heavy camera loads. It also comes with an auto safety lock to ensure a secure horizontal position when loading or dismantling heavy box lenses.

Two bubble levels located at either side of the head allow for convenient levelling.
