FH-7240: Cinema Fluid Head

Introducing the FH-7240 by Really Right Stuff: a fluid head three years in the making and the epitome of innovation in videography gear. This fluid head amalgamates unparalleled performance, precision, ergonomics, and ease of use, all underpinned by a five-year warranty and stellar customer support.

Crafted in response to user feedback for a more robust load capacity, the FH-7240 handles up to 27 lbs effortlessly, making it perfect for dynamic shooting environments. With 7 damping settings plus an off option, it offers meticulous control, while its sophisticated fluid system ensures smooth whip-pans even at high damping settings. The head's precision engineering allows for consistent torque and accurate sinusoidal movement across its full range of motion.

Designed with the operator in mind, the FH-7240 features intuitive disk brakes and adjustment controls that are easily managed with the left hand, leaving your right hand free to guide the telescoping control arm, detailed with a carbon fiber extension and rubber grip for superior control and minimal noise.

Innovations include user-replaceable, stainless steel Arri-compatible rosettes for customizable control arm placement and an RRS dovetail lever clamp with an auto-close feature for secure, hassle-free camera mounting. This clamp is compatible with all RRS dovetails, streamlining your workflow by eliminating the need to switch between plates.

The package is completed with a 5" BENG-5 universal mounting plate, spring-loaded safety stops to prevent tipping, dedicated storage for extra screws, and integrated hex key storage for effortless assembly. Precision is further enhanced with laser-engraved degree markings and a red-illuminated bubble level for visibility in any lighting condition.

This fluid head promises to elevate your filming experience and is a testament to Really Right Stuff's commitment to quality, innovation, and user-focused design.
