C

artoni, a world-leader in camera
support, has expanded its
product line at this year's NAB Show
by introducing two new products.
MAGNUM, hailed as the largest capacity
product ever, offers a payload capacity
of 25 - 95 kg (55 - 210 lbs.) combined
with reliable operation, a fluid feel
(with no transition in tilting) and an
unprecedented five year warranty. It's
an ideal choice for studio and outside
broadcast cameras, including those
with long lens configurations or bulky

accessories.
"MAGNUM is Cartoni's response to
our customers' need for a versatile,
workhorse fluid head capable of
supporting today's heavier camera
packages,"
said
David
Butler,
Cartoni USA National Sales Manager.
"MAGNUM is designed to handle
big box cameras with big lenses. It
maintains stability through zooms
of four to five hundred feet, or more.
That, plus our best-in-the-industry
five year warranty, makes this an
outstanding value." Butler notes
High payload
MAGNUM that MAGNUM also provides
complete balance control for
payloads weighing as little as 25
kg (55 lbs.), making it a versatile
performer.
As with all Cartoni fluid heads,
MAGNUM employs the company's
patented technology to deliver
perfect counterbalance at any tilt
angle +/- 65°. High-performance,
continuous-drag fluid modules
ensure maximum flexibility in
drag intensity, making it ideal for

allow the use of traditional PL mount
cine lenses to create a powerful tool
for cinematographers and image
enthusiasts on set, on location and in

existing Leica M mount. It includes a
custom baseplate with an integrated
handgrip

creates an easy-to-use tool with
endless creative options.
With the Leica M PL Mount, the Leica
M camera becomes a next-generation
director's viewfinder with the ability
to capture faithful reference photos
and videos in the moment. Experience
cine lenses in a new way by shooting

and portraits, or truly maximise the
camera's 24MP full frame sensor for

The M camera's ability to shoot
1080p video in a compact package
opens up unique "B" or "C" camera
options as well. At the end of
the day simply remove the M PL
Mount, reattach your favourite
M lens and enjoy the world of
rangefinder photography.

camera. A micrometric
sliding plate, operated
by an accessible crank
wheel, ensures the
perfect centering of
any

It's also equipped with a positive
horizontal lock for safe set up.
MAGNUM can be attached to Mitchell
mount tripods, pedestals and other flat
base supports via M12 threaded shaft

MAGNUM is available with a digital
readout system for counterbalance,
pan and tilt and drag intensity. The
electronic display is conveniently
positioned on the rear for easy, singlehand access.
Cartoni also introduced TRACKER

cameras from 3 kg (4.4 lbs.) to 20 kg
(44 lbs.), TRACKER is an ideal fluid
head for newsgathering and other
outdoor shoots.
TRACKER offers a sleek, compact
design, yet is accessorised with a variety of top end features. They include

TRACKER
offers a sleek,
compact design

MAGNUM is hailed
as the largest capacity product ever

which delivers perfect performance
throughout the +/-90º tilt range, as
well as the company's patented labyrinth system for smooth, precise pan
and tilt movement.
Ergonomically designed knobs and
levers make the head easy to use.
Although weighing just 4 kg (8.8 lbs.),
the head is extremely durable due to
its use of lightweight "ultrastrong"
magnesium alloys. TRACKER is also
backed by Cartoni's unsurpassed five
year warranty.
"TRACKER belongs in every ENG

Cartoni, President and CEO, Cartoni. "It

you are shooting."
Cartoni is celebrating 80 years in the
camera support industry.
