Ulanzi VideoFast Heavy-Duty Studio Tripod Kit with 6-Way Fluid Head (Variable Aluminum T048 / Carbon Fiber T046)

Cinema-Grade Motion Control: Meet the Ulanzi VideoFast Series

Eliminate micro-jitters and jerky framing on set. The Ulanzi VideoFast Heavy-Duty Tripod System introduces a high-performance hydraulic fluid head with advanced drag control and dynamic balance mechanisms. Engineered specifically for complex camera movements, its 6-way pan-tilt fluid head delivers uniform resistance across a full 360° panoramic pan and a flexible $+90^\circ / -45^\circ$ tilt range—allowing you to confidently track fast action or capture seamless landscape pans.

Instant One-Touch Height Adjustments

Time is money on a commercial production set. Unlike standard multi-lock legs that require adjusting separate knobs per section, the VideoFast series utilizes a revolutionary one-touch synchronised locking system. Release, extend, and lock the entire 5-section leg structure with a single motion, letting you adjust working heights from 30.9 inches (78.5 cm) up to a towering 64.6 inches (164 cm) in mere seconds.

Heavy-Duty Support for Complex Production Rigs

This isn’t a lightweight travel accessory; it is a dedicated production foundation. Built to balance fully rigged cinema cameras (RED, ARRI, Blackmagic), heavy telephoto lenses, and full broadcast assemblies, the structural legs support up to an incredible 55 lbs (25 kg).

• 75mm Half-Ball Bowl: Level your horizon instantaneously on uneven surfaces or rocky outdoor terrain without adjusting leg lengths.

• Pro-Standard Compatibility: Includes a Manfrotto 501-type compatible quick-release plate equipped with both 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 screws.

• Ground/Mid-Level Spreader Support: Keeps the tripod legs locked perfectly in position, providing an extra layer of structural rigidity when under maximum payloads.

• All-Weather Footing: Swappable rubber padding reveals hidden heavy-duty metal spikes for absolute grip on slick studio floors or muddy outdoor spaces.

Choose Your Variation: Aluminum Alloy vs. Carbon Fiber

• VideoFast Aluminum (T048): The quintessential studio workhorse. Combining immense structural integrity with a traditional heavy-duty metallic chassis, it offers maximum weight resistance at an accessible price point for scaling production houses.

• VideoFast Carbon Fiber (T046): The premium, mobile filmmaker’s choice. Utilizing advanced multi-layered carbon weave, it reduces the overall dead-weight of your kit by over a pound without sacrificing an ounce of load capacity. It also boasts natural vibration-dampening qualities—crucial when filming near heavy traffic or on high-wind sets.
