The 3034 System ArrowX 3 Sprinter II 1-Stage Alloy Tripod System with on-ground spreader from Miller combines the ArrowX 3 fluid head with speedy and solid Sprinter II Alloy tripod to support the latest generation in acquisition from the DSLR to film-ready HDV alternatives to the lightweight ENG camcorders of payloads from 1-19kg / 2.2-41.8lbs.
Components of the 3034 System ArrowX 3 Sprinter II 1-Stage Alloy Tripod System include: ArrowX 3 Fluid Head (1072), Sprinter II Ground Spreader (470), Arrow Softcase (870), Sprinter II 1-Stage Alloy Tripod (1589G), and Telescopic Pan Handle with Carrier (696).
The ArrowX 3 Fluid Head from Miller is the lightweight 100mm choice for ENG. Featuring a wide payload range, precision fluid drag and Miller's innovative 16 position CB Plus counterbalance system, ArrowX 3 delivers the flexibility, speed of set up and accuracy of shot, professionals expect and demand from Miller's 62 years of experience.
1-19kg (2.2-41.8lbs) payload range and 5+0 selectable pan-tilt fluid drag positions make ArrowX 3 ideal for news gathering and documentaries, enabling it to be used with a wide range of cameras, lenses and accessories.
CB Plus is an innovative sequential counterbalance design, taking traditional counter balancing a step forward ahead of the rest, resulting in repeatable, accurate and rapid setup. CB Plus features eight larger counterbalance steps, allowing the user to get to their required counterbalance position quickly and efficiently. The CB Plus “one flick" switch conveniently located at the front of the head, adds a half step between each of the eight larger steps enabling counterbalance fine-tuning when required.
The Sprinter II 1-Stage Alloy Tripod offers speed without the compromise. Featuring Sprint-Locks and side-action leg locks, Miller's designers have updated the streamline design of the levers to bring you a more ergonomic feel to the lever-lock action. Single Stage Sprinters feature a singular Sprint-Lock side-action lever for single stage control. When used with the Sprinter II Ground Spreader, attached directly to the spiked feet at the bottom of the Sprinter II tripod, you will achieve rapid set-up and pull down by keeping the tripod legs at an equal or preset distance.
The 3034 System ArrowX 3 Sprinter II 1-Stage Alloy Tripod System finishes out with a fixed length Telescopic Pan Handle made of durable, black anodized aluminum tubing, supplied with black handle carrier; and an Arrow Softcase made from weatherproof Cordura for 1-Stage tripods with padded carry straps and patented head-end cradle for protecting the fluid head during transport. Great protection for your tripod system!
