The Libec HS-250 is a professional, continuous-counterbalance video support system bundle. It pairs a high-performance fluid head with a robust ground-level floor spreader. This hardware combination is specifically optimized for stable, flat shooting environments like studio floors, corporate stages, and indoor arenas.
Â
This system handles payloads up to eleven pounds or five kilograms, making it an ideal choice for compact cinema camera cages, mirrorless camera packages, and handheld broadcast setups.
Component Breakdown
-
H25 Fluid Head: A seventy-five millimeter dual-base fluid head featuring a flat bottom alongside a traditional half-ball casting. It provides an adjustable counterbalance system backed by a continuous spring tension knob and an illuminated reference meter dial. The pan and tilt drag modules deliver three distinct levels of smooth, stepped fluid resistance plus a zero free setting.
-
RT30B Tripod Legs: High-stability, two-stage aluminum alloy legs utilizing robust die-cast metal casings at the upper leg hinges. Built with an industry-standard seventy-five millimeter bowl diameter, these legs offer excellent torsional resistance to counteract whip-pans. Leg extensions are firmly secured using rapid rotary clamping levers.
-
SP-2B Ground Spreader: A professional floor-level spreader that locks the bottom spikes of the tripod legs into a fixed, structural triangular layout. This ground anchor maximizes lower stability on flat surfaces and prevents the legs from bowing out or marring delicate indoor floors.
-
RC-30 Carrying Case: A custom-contoured, water-resistant nylon transport bag. It features a heavy-duty, end-to-end zipper layout, reinforced carry handles, and an adjustable shoulder strap to safely house the collapsed system during travel.

Operational System Tips for the HS-250:
💡 Achieving Ultra-Low Angles: Because this specific package uses the SP-2B ground-level floor spreader instead of a mid-level design, you can achieve significantly lower camera perspectives. By widening the footprint of the ground spreader fully and fully collapsing the two-stage aluminum leg extensions, you can drop the center of your camera package down to a minimum operating height of just twenty-two inches or fifty-six centimeters from the floor.
-
Two-Axis Stability Check: When locking your camera plate into the sideload mechanism, always utilize the integrated circular bubble level on the base of the head. Since floor surfaces are not always completely true, adjust your leveling bowl until the bubble rests perfectly centered before tuning your pan and tilt fluid drag controls. This prevents your horizon from tilting off-axis when performing wide panoramic moves.
