- Perfect Balance
-
The Vision 100 pan & tilt head achieves the Perfect
Counter Balance by means of an innovative and patented
infinitely-variable spring mechanism. This allows the head to tilt
through the full range of ±90° in perfect balance, eliminating a
considerable amount of physical effort required by the operator to
control the tilting action. Since the camera is perfectly balanced, it
can be left at any angle - totally hands free - without having to lock
the tilt brake. The variable counterbalance mechanism allows it to be
used with a variety of lenses, batteries, viewfinders and on-camera
lights.
For even faster setup, the Vision 100 offers a digital
counterbalance readout, with repeatable balance setting. The display is
activated by a simple press of a button and remains visible for 15
seconds.

The Vision 100 uses the Vinten TF (Thin Film) damping
system, to provide consistent drag and constant performance in demanding
conditions from -40°F to +140°F. The TF system offers total control,
for precise movement and excellent camera control during the critical
slow start-up of your shot. Providing seamless transition into Whip Pan
and instant recovery to the original drag setting at the finish of the
movement.
Calibrated with variable adjustment and a single turn rotation from
fully On to Off, the drag knobs are backlit and are adjusted accordingly
(depending on the lighting conditions) by a light sensor built into the
digital readout. For easy viewing and detented to give a "dial-in
feel", ensuring that settings are always maintained.
