Miller launches Arrowx 1 Fluid Head for Emerging Shooters

Miller has announced its new Arrowx 1 Fluid Head, which is part of the Arrowx series tripod system. Arrowx 1 is a 100 mm tripod with an entry-level fluid head and a load capacity of 16 kg with the ability to shoot panoramas. In addition, the new device already has a movable slider in the kit, which should be appreciated by videographers.

The head is easy to remove, allowing you to use other Miller heads. It should be a great choice for aspiring emerging shooters to own a truly professional fluid head. Enabling them to achieve their career goals which will serve them well for many years to come.

A key feature of the Arrowx series is Miller’s patented 16 CB Plus technology – a unique sequential counterbalance design resulting in accurate and rapid setup. With a payload range of 0-16.0kg (0-35.3lbs) and 5 selectable fluid drag positions + 0, delivers the flexibility, speed of set up and accuracy of shot, professionals expect, and demand.

The CB Plus is an innovative sequential counterbalance design, taking traditional counter balancing a step forward, resulting in repeatable, accurate, and rapid setup. CB Plus features eight larger counterbalance steps, allowing the user to get to their required counterbalance position quickly and efficiently. The CB Plus one flick” switch conveniently located at the front of the head, adds a half step between each of the eight larger steps enabling counterbalance fine-tuning when required.
