Overview
Replacing the renowned 2060HD, the new OConnor Ultimate 2065 Fluid Head (Mitchell) shares the ergonomic design of OConnor’s higher-payload fluid heads like the popular 2575D and 120EX models. Pan and tilt brakes are conveniently located on the left side of the head, making operation familiar and intuitive.
The 2065 also copies many popular features of the 120EX. The platform is equipped with dual scales, one on each side, and four handle rosettes to allow operation from either side of the head as well as front or back handle mounting. A handy one-touch platform release lever enables one finger or hand action to release the safety catch and open the lever, which speeds deployment and location changes in the field.
With a greater payload and drag than its predecessor, this new head weighs just 22.9 lb (10.4 kg) and has a payload range of 0-71 lb (32.2 kg). As OConnor fluid heads can be counterbalanced down to 0 lb, they are ideal for the current art of cinematography, where cameras keep getting lighter, lenses keep getting larger, and new accessories are constantly being developed. No matter how a camera setup is configured, the 2065 can balance the payload.
Features:
- The platform has all the controls on the camera operator’s side of the head (i.e., the left side)
- The platform release lever has a one touch finger actuated safety release catch; this allows for one finger/hand action to release the safety catch and open the lever
- Dual platform scales
- The platform has (4) handle rosettes
- The left side has a "soft" hand rest similar to the 120EX
- The head is now painted black
- All current 2575D accessories are interchangeable with the 2065 (inluding the hard case)
