Ulti-Head
VERSATILE REMOTE & MOTION CONTROL HEAD
The Ulti-Head is the ultimate in heavy-load robotic systems designed for high payload capacity, speed and precision. The Ulti-Head offers the best in class for heavy duty camera support with a maximum payload of up to 45kg (with side bars), making it the ideal choice for providing fast, fluid, accurate motion for large-format cameras and lenses.

Key Features
CONVENIENCE, COMPATIBILITY & CONTROL
Whatever your setup, the Ulti-Head has it covered; it works with hand-wheels, joysticks or pan-bars and is fully adjustable for any camera or lens thanks to its adaptable carbon-fibre tubes. The Ulti-Head also works directly with the MSA-20 for remote head use – even wirelessly – and offers full track and lift options and can interface to video lens motors.
The Ulti-Head can be controlled using remote hand-wheels, joystick or pan-bars, or be programmed via computer using our advanced Flair software system to ensure you remain in control of every single shot, no matter where you are.
