[Man503head]

The Manfrotto 503 fluid head can be used as a flat plate head or with a 75mm bowl mount - please let us know and we will include the bowl mount with the head.

Particular care has been taken to achieve the best fluid control, the smoothest possible pan and tilt movements and the most customisable performance using a manually adjustable drag variation mechanism. Additionally, the 503 is equipped with a built-in balance spring (set for an ideal load of approx. 2.5 kg) to maintain camera positioning during tilt movements.

Designed for payloads up to an ample 8kg, its light but positive fluid movement provides exceptionally smooth control, thanks also to its new fine-control drag device, which offers continuous adjustment from nearly 0 drag to maximum.

The 503 is supplied with a quick-release sliding plate, a single telescopic pan handle and optional 75mm bowl mount. This head is ideal for mounting onto one of our Glidetrack sliders
