Create fluid and smooth pans and tilts while supporting a wide range of camera heights with the precision-made Sachtler FSB 14 Mark II Fluid Head with Touch & Go Plate, which supports payloads up to 35.3 lb. Designed to accommodate digital cinema-style cameras, the head offers Sachtler's Touch & Go QR plate that pops in and out of the fluid head's camera platform. The platform features a 4.7" back and forth adjustment for balance. It also features a 15-step counterbalance along with horizontal and vertical 7-step drag controls. In addition, a zero setting on the pan and tilt drag controls allows free movement of the head, useful for whip pans and tilts.
Suitable for interior and exterior work, the head offers consistent and reliable operation from -40 to 140°F, and it features a 100mm bowl with an integrated flat base, allowing you to mount the head on legs and supports with either a 100mm bowl or a flat base fitting. The head features a bubble level with a prism system, so you can set your head to level while seeing the bubble level from above or to the side. The bubble level is illuminated for easy leveling in poor light conditions. A pan handle that can be mounted on either side of the head is also included.

Sachtler FSB MKII Series Video Head Reviews
Not for rugged use
This head is a delicate flower. I've had it for less than a year... the level bubble is completely shot, and the tilt tension dial will only turn between levels 4-7. I can only assume that this is just the beginning of my problems with this head. I use my tripods in rugged situations and they spend a lot of time in Pelican cases being thrown around by airline luggage handlers. I have two Sachtler 18s built in the 80s that I use every day, so I know they build quality stuff, but this head is best suited for studio use or gentle corporate shoots in the CEO's office. I would not recommend it for news or documentary.
Excellent head
I'm currently running an FS7 with V mount batteries, external 5 monitor, Zacuto VCT plate+shoulder plate. Lenses are often at the long & heavy end. This head can handle that setup no problem. For general everyday shooting it will cover all my bases. From my days working in broadcast I grew to like a lot of friction in the head, and it would be nice to have a little more in the tilt axis for long lens work (e.g. surfing), but it's nice to stay with a 75mm system for genearl everyday use. The head is also lighter than the Manfrotto 504HD I used previously. The prism spirit level is GREAT as someone vertically challenged. I also like that the tie down bolt can be removed, leaving a flat base for mounting on a slider. I originally wished they made a touch & go version of this head but now have grown to like the advantages of the the Sideload. Mainly that there is much more adjustment range available forward and back. What would have been nice is if two camera plates were included. The price to buy Sachtler's plates individually is nearly 5% the price of this head - which I think is over the top. Thankfully standard Manfrotto style plates are compatible however I would only trust the Sachtler plate on a heavy/expensive rig.
Fantastic upgrade
Using this with a heavy Ursa broadcast setup at around 22 pounds and have had good results. Very smooth. Counterbalance is almost perfect. I wish the pan drag could go a little stiffer, but its not really a problem.
