E-Image Motus Overview
The E-Image 3-Stage Carbon Fiber Tripod System with Fluid Head and 100mm Leveling Ball features a fluid head with continuously variable counterbalance, two telescopic pan handles, heavy-duty carbon fiber tripod legs, a mid-level spreader, a set of three rubber feet, a hard-sided case, and a padded bag. The fluid head has a payload capacity of up to 48.5 lb with support for DSLR setups, ENG, and digital cinema cameras. It has four steps of pan and tilt drag and independent locks for each axis. The head features a heavy-duty quick release plate that pops into the head and slides within the camera platform for balance. The head also features an illuminated bubble level and has two rosettes for pan handles.
The fluid head attaches to the 3-stage tripod via a 100mm bowl interface. With the head attached, the tripod offers a height adjustment of 21.9 to 59.45" and collapses to 29.3". The mid-level spreader and rubber feet hold the tripod legs in position, providing rigidity and stability, and the tripod system packs into the padded bag for easy transportation.

The counterbalance is controlled by a crank and features a numerical readout of the counterbalance setting from 0 to 100% of the heads payload capacity
