To achieve maximum image sharpness the camera must be set on a sturdy vibration free tripod fluid head offering smooth pan and tilt movements to iron out any jerky camera motion that will mar the recorded image; this unwritten rule applies both to professional and to amateur use.
Manfrotto has a wide range of quality systems for all applications, budgets and camera weights. The video heads they produce offer a variety of technical solutions for camera balancing, drag control, load bearing and tripod mounting.
