The Cartoni Focus 22/150 is the version of the Focus 22 fluid head with a 150 mm bowl for tripods and pedestals with a 150 mm bowl. It balances cameras from 3 to 25 kg, the widest range in the Focus series, with the patented Cartoni wing continuous counterbalance and numerical scale, continuous drag on both axes, ±90° tilt and a quick-release plate. 4 kg.
The head mounts directly on tripods with a 150 mm bowl, with no converter. It is built for today’s digital ENG and CineStyle cameras from Arri, Red, Blackmagic Design, Canon, Sony and others and suits news gathering and outdoor shooting.

Counterbalance and fluid drag on both pan and tilt are set continuously, without fixed steps. The camera stays put at any tilt angle, and every move starts and stops without a jolt.
A sliding plate with a Euro-style quick release – mount and balance the camera in moments.
Read the counterbalance setting on an easy-to-read numerical scale and return to it quickly after a camera change.
The switchable illuminated level lets you level the head even in low light.
The head works in freezing cold and in heat, so you can use it outdoors all year round.

The 150 mm bowl at the bottom seats directly in a tripod or pedestal bowl of the same size.

Slide the plate forwards or backwards until the camera is in balance. The pan and tilt locks are operated by clearly marked levers on the sides.
The chart shows how much camera weight the head’s counterbalance can balance depending on how high above the plate the centre of gravity of the rig sits. The higher the centre of gravity, the lower the payload the head can hold in balance.
The base interfaces directly with 150 mm bowl tripods and with pedestals via the standard Vinten 4-bolt pattern. The tie-down shaft can be removed from the 3/8″ thread with a 10 mm wrench, so the head also fits many popular pedestals and sliders – ideal for rental houses and broadcast facilities running mixed systems.
