Smooth Movements At Speed

The Aktiv6 fluid head with unique SpeedLevel technology has the ability to be levelled at speed, perfect when filming for documentary, corporate, news or wildlife videography. Further to this, the SpeedSwap system enables the user to exchange their camera system between tripod and slider in seconds; vital for gaining multiple angles within a short time-frame.

Versatility At Its Best

Combining the Aktiv6 and flowtech75, no bowl clamp is required. This allows the flowtech to be flattened to the ground for extreme low-angle shots; possible through the functional hinge lock mechanism of flowtech. The Sachtler Aktiv6 flowtech 75 GS is capable of an incredibly wide height-range; with GS, this is 25.4 cm - 158 cm. This 2-stage carbon fibre flowtech tripod has exceptionally high torsional stiffness (less bend and more rigid in extreme conditions). When on the move, the Aktiv6's ergonomic design means that it is comfortable to carry, on the shoulder or carry handle; legs held together via magnetic lock to further aid transportation.

Ground Spreader System

The Sachtler Aktiv6 flowtech 75 GS Tripod System utilises a removable ground spreader system. When attached, its prime use is to keep the tripod stable on flat ground when using a larger camera rig or when the weather conditions begin effecting camera stability. This system comes into its own when filming in a range of locations that would usually require multiple setups, instead, you are able to remove the ground system and lock each leg in one of three positions (ideal for extreme low-level capture).

Built To Withstand All Weather

This tripod system is made for extreme/outdoor photography and videography. Deployed and adjusted at speed, the Sachtler Aktiv6 flowtech 75 GS Tripod System utilises dual spikes at the foot of each leg for superior grip and when working on softer ground. Also, the Sachtler Padded Bag is designed to carry either the flowtech 75 or TT tripod equipped with an FSB fluid head. It is constructed with water-resistant Cordura nylon and can be carried either by the interlocking handles or adjustable shoulder strap.

FAQs:

Can the ground system be removed and replaced when required?

Yes, the Sachtler Aktiv6 flowtech75 GS Tripod System utilises a removable ground spreader system. When attached, its prime use is to keep the tripod stable on flat ground when using a larger camera rig, and when detached, the tripod system allows you to capture extremely low-level footage and in more extreme environments or on uneven ground.

What is the height range of the Sachtler Aktiv6 flowtech 75 GS Tripod System?

With GS attached, the height range is 25.4 cm - 158 cm and when this is removed, the height range is sightly higher yet not as stable. By detaching the GS, the flowtech can be flattened to the ground for extreme low-angle photography and videography.
