Vinten to release Vector 60 at NAB

At NAB 2005 Vinten is to showcase a new addition to the award winning Vector range, Vector 60.
With all the functionality of the original award winning Vector range, the new Vector 60 has been designed for the future, offering the camera operator significantly better picture control and improved performance from a smaller and more economical package.
Camera operators familiar with the Vector 70 will feel perfectly at home using the Vector 60, offering familiar features such as infinitely adjustable LF drag, platform deadlock, illuminated levelling bubble and pan and tilt brakes perfectly positioned for ease of use.
In addition, the new counterbalance system, introduced recently on Vector 900 and 450, allows up to ±90° of perfectly counterbalanced camera tilt. Vector 60 is also extremely light and compact, allowing for easier set-up, repositioning and demands minimal storage space.
Vector 60 has a capacity of 65kg (143lb) and comes complete with a standard four bolt flat base, single telescopic pan bar and standard wedge adapter. By combining the characteristics of LF drag with the new perfect balance system, the effort needed to control the effect of a heavy, moving camera payload remains constant and predictable, allowing the operator to concentrate on their framing whist comfortably keeping up with the action.
