Vinten Showcases Perfect Balance

A Vitec Group brand and global leader in camera supports, will be demonstrating its commitment to unrivalled performance and excellent reliability at Broadcast Asia 2010.
Vinten, which is celebrating its 100 year anniversary, will centre its presentation on the new Vision AS range of lightweight pan and tilt heads.
The Vision AS range of heads meets the needs of professional users and modern lightweight camcorders, covering payloads from as low as 2.0 kg up to 14.5 kg. Each model incorporates Vinten's Perfect Balance technology, providing unrivalled ease of use and stability in action, even at such low payloads.
The new family of heads shares a number of ergonomic and operational improvements over the acclaimed Vision range, from repositioned controls and the Vinten side loading mechanism to make set-up faster and more secure to its tough, non-reflective black coating which, as well as eliminating reflections makes the head better able to stand up to life on the road.
Peter Harman, Vinten Product Manager commented: "This is a competitive part of the market, which is dominated by freelancers, spending their own money, who need perfect performance, but also expect the product to be reliable over a long life.
"We listened to the comments of our users and developed the Vision AS range based on their suggestions. It has rapidly gained great acceptance around the world, and with the dramatic growth in production in Asia at present, there has never been a better time to be showing a world-leading product at Broadcast Asia."
The Vision AS range includes four models to cover the spectrum of likely payloads. The pan and tilt heads are sold as standalone items to work with existing tripods or as systems in combination with a Vinten Pozi-Loc tripod, spreader and Petrol carrying case.
As well as demonstrating the benefits of the Vision AS range, Vinten staff at Broadcast Asia will be available to discuss all aspects of camera support including the full range of pedestals, tripods and heads. Vinten can be found in hall 8, booth 8K2-12 at Broadcast Asia, running from the 15th - 18th June, Singapore Expo.
