OConnor 2560 Fluid Camera Head
As the global camera support leader in the cinema industry, OConnor will feature its 2560 fluid head, which offers versatility for both lightweight and heavy rig setups and enables cinematographers to move faster and more efficiently while still maintaining control and stability. The continuously adjustable 2560 offers sinusoidal counterbalance and fluid drag that together provide the ultra-smooth OConnor feel over the largest payload range. The 2560 offers cine-standard position of controls (including brakes) and a front handle mount for intuitive, controlled positioning of the camera, as well as a lightweight magnesium housing and carbon-fiber cover for best-in-class performance, power-to-weight ratio, and reliability. The 2560 supports any lightweight digital cinema camera (such as those from Sony, Canon, ARRI, AJA, JVC, Panasonic, Vision Research, and RED) in a "maxed-out" studio configuration.
The 2560 is in daily use by cinematographers worldwide on a broad range of challenging location shoots. Here, renowned DP Christian Herrera (http://www.ocon.com/inspiration/close-up/christian-herrera/?elqTrackId=1b71dafb26fa4f95b5694c74d867ef2a&elq=636a171dec7e46bfb7fc16521f2130b9&elqaid=5153&elqat=1&elqCampaignId=) describes his experience using the camera head on location in Costa Rica.

Company Quote:
"Cine Gear Expo is an exciting venue for our cinema brands to showcase their latest innovations that advance the quality and science of film production. A great example is OConnor's camera heads, which have been used on almost every Hollywood movie feature and episodic TV drama since the early 1990s. We're also happy to be presenting all-new, much brighter versions of our Astra and Sola LED lights, which give filmmakers even more output than the original LED models."
-Paul Weiser, VP of Sales for Vitec Group, Americas and Asia-Pacific Regions
