Q: 3. Why is it $17,766.00?

A: Top level gear such as OConnor is used on productions where each hour is costing thousands of dollars. In such a situation, you as a cinematographer want only the finest equipment available. As a user of OConnor heads for years on multi million dollar feature sets, I can attest that when the shot and your job rests on everything working perfectly, you do not want to have gear that is anything less than the best. OConnor answers those needs; it works every time all the time. All this quality and ruggedness costs. More affordable gear will do a fine job for most consumer and light use professional productions. However, that level gear cannot hold up under super demanding situations.

Q: 9. Struggling to counterbalance a 6 to 8 pound camera setup (Sony z280) on the Focus 12. Any tips? I can't get the camera to hold position when tilted down or up. I have no problems balancing on a Focus 8. Thanks for you help.

A: The Cartoni Focus 12 Fluid Head (100mm) (B&H# CAHF1200) features a continuous counterbalance system that is designed to provide counterforce in all orientations so as to make it easy and smooth to return to a level position. It can still tilt, however, to a full +90 degrees or -90 degrees, so you should still be able to point in your desired direction. If you would like to reduce the effective counterforce then you'll want to add weight to your camera.
