Sachtler Flowtech
The award-winning flowtech®, a versatile, lightweight tripod that is easier and faster to deploy and adjust than any other tripod. Performance tested in extreme conditions, flowtech® is a revolution in tripod technology, giving the camera operator ultimate versatility and improving their workflow.
Revolutionise the way you work - wherever and however you work - with flowtech, the world's fastest tripod. Available in 75mm and 100mm with mid-level or ground-level spreader or without spreader to match your way of working. flowtech®75 aktiv has a payload capacity of 20kg / 44lb, while flowtech®100 supports a heavier payload of up to 30kg / 66lb.
Unique quick release brakes
flowtech® features unique quick release brakes located at the top of the tripod that allow camera operators to easily deploy and adjust the tripod in an instant. All the legs of the tripod can be deployed simultaneously and can quickly adjust to the height that you need and the ground’s surface – eliminating the need to bend over or manually adjust multiple brakes on each leg.
Ergonomic carbon fibre legs
Carbon fibre profile makes flowtech® lightweight and easy to transport. It’s ergonomically designed to comfortably rest on the camera operator’s shoulder while magnetic locks offer an easy, quick method for locking the legs together during transport. Exceptional torsional stiffness ensures that the tripod doesn’t twist during panning movements.
Versatile hinge lock system
flowtech® comes with a hinge lock mechanism that gives camera operators ultimate versatility. With the ability to be used with or without a spreader. The hinge lock allows flowtech® to be deployed as low as 26 cm / 10.2 in and as high as 157 cm / 61.8 in when used without a spreader. This effectively eliminates the need to bring a second set of baby legs to each shoot.
Performance tested for extremes
Tested in the most punishing environments, flowtech® excels in sludge, sand and extreme temperatures. Tried in over 30,000 lab-testing cycles – in which the tripod is repeatedly deployed – and 1.5 million clamp operations on the test endurance rig, flowtech® surpasses Sachtler’s stringent performance targets.
