SKU: LIB-H35

Libec 75mm ball and flat base video head with a PH-6B, payload 8kg

R 34,684.00
Tax included Shipping calculated at checkout.


The Libec H35 Professional Fluid Head combined with the Libec PH-6B Extendable Pan Handle. This setup represents Libec's premium seventy-five millimeter dual-base fluid head option rated specifically for a maximum payload capacity of seventeen point six pounds or eight kilograms.

 

This hybrid foundation is designed for mirrorless production setups, medium-sized cinema camera builds, and standard handheld broadcast setups that require precise, repeatable pan and tilt mechanics.

Core Engineering & Performance Design

1. Universal Dual-Base Versatility

The defining design characteristic of the H35 is its integrated dual-head base bottom. The structure includes a native seventy-five millimeter half-ball profile that locks into matching video tripod leg bowls. Simultaneously, the bottom of the casting is completely flat and features a standard three-eighths inch sixteen female mounting thread. This allows a solo operator to unscrew the tie-down knob, lift the head out of the legs, and mount it instantly onto flat-base gear like production sliders, cranes, or floor dollies without needing conversion plates.

2. Perfect Continuous Counterbalance

Rather than utilizing a small selection of fixed step buttons, the H35 features a continuous internal spring counterbalance mechanism. This system lets you balance camera payloads up to seventeen point six pounds or eight kilograms with pinpoint accuracy. An illuminated zero-to-one-hundred scale meter on the back housing tracks the spring's precise tension setting. Once dialed in to match your specific rig weight, the camera floats weightlessly and stops at any tilt angle without falling forward or snapping back to center when you let go of the handle.

3. Indexed Multilayered Fluid Drag

The pan and tilt movements are isolated inside sealed, multilayered metal modules running high-grade silicon grease to completely absorb hand tremors. The friction profile features four distinct, step-indexed settings, which are zero free mode plus three separate stages of increasing fluid torque resistance. This allows you to scale the pan and tilt damping to match your lens choice, focal length, or panning speed seamlessly.

4. Extended Mechanical Leverage with the PH-6B

The included Libec PH-6B is a premium telescopic pan handle that replaces the basic static handles found on entry-level gear. Built with an ergonomic rubber grip over a rigid aluminum shaft, it features a knurled compression collar that lets you adjust the handle's length anywhere from eleven point six inches to nineteen point seven inches. Extending the length provides greater physical leverage, which reduces muscle effort when executing slow, high-precision diagonal tracking sweeps with a full eight-kilogram camera package.

System Technical Specifications Matrix:

Performance Parameter Libec H35 Head with PH-6B Specifications
Official Hardware SKU Libec H35 (Head Only)
Maximum System Payload Capacity Seventeen point six pounds or eight kilograms
Counterbalance Tuning Window Six point six to sixteen point five pounds or three to seven point five kilograms
Pan and Tilt Torque Profiles Zero Free setting plus three steps of mechanical fluid drag
Vertical Tilt Angle Limits Positive ninety degrees to negative seventy degrees
Base Attachment Standard Seventy-five millimeter Half Ball and Threaded Flat Base combined
Camera Sliding Plate Style One-touch sideload mechanism compatible with Manfrotto and Sachtler systems
Telescopic Handle Range (PH-6B) Eleven point six inches to nineteen point seven inches
Total Head Net Weight Five point nine pounds or two point seven kilograms

Operational System Tips for the H35 and PH-6B Combo:

💡 The Side-Port Rigging Advantage: The lower stationary base casting of the H35 head houses dedicated one-quarter inch twenty and three-eighths inch sixteen female accessory threads. When mounting production monitors, wireless audio units, or video transmitters, screw your articulating arms straight into these base holes instead of clamping them to your moving camera cage. Because these holes remain completely static during camera tracking, your accessories' weight will not alter the rig's center of gravity or throw off your perfect counterbalance settings during steep tilts.

  • Lens-Swapping Efficiency: When finding the perfect floating balance for a specific camera configuration, take note of the final numerical index shown on the illuminated rear scale meter. If you swap lenses mid-shoot, you can bypass the standard trial-and-error balancing routine later by turning the continuous knob straight back to your recorded number.
