- 1. Ace Top performance, fastand easy handling plus reliability – all guaranteed by the new Sachtler Ace tripod systems at an attractive price/performance ratio. The Ace M fluid head was specially designed for lightweight HDV camcorders and video-enabled DSLR cameras. Ace L can be used when working with multiple accessories, which make the set-up heavier. With Ace, you'll have a genuine broadcast feel. The newly patented SA- drag™ drag allows for precise panning and tilting. The counterbalancing of the camera set-up can be done quickly and perfectly using the familiar Sachtler counterbalance in steps. Intuitive and professional working condi- tions are guaranteed with Ace. Additionally, when it comes to weight, the Ace tripod systems are unbeatable. Thanks to the modern carbon fiber material, the Ace tripod systems are the lightest in Sachtler's product line and offer a weight advantage when compared to similar systems of other manufacturers. General information about the features of Sachtler fluid heads and tripods can be found on pages 8-9 and 54-55. Read here to see what makes our Ace tripod systems unique: Counterbalance, Payload, Tilt Range Ace M wins users over with a pay- load range of 0 to 4 kilograms (9.7 lbs) and a five-step counterbalance. Thanks to a 7-step counterbalance, Ace L can be used with heavier set-ups with an additional two kilograms (4.4 lbs). Whether using a lightweight DSLR camera or mini- camcorder – with Ace, every camera set-up can be quickly and easily counterbalanced. Both fluid heads have a tilt range of +90° to -75°. SA-drag™ System Using new technology, the newly patented SA-drag™ system by Sachtler guarantees consistent and exactly repeatable drag. With the three horizontal and vertical grades of the SA-drag™, the corresponding number of segments is accordingly activated, combined or passively switched. You can rely on smooth and jerk-free dolly shots. Materials & Weight You can count on the Ace tripod systems if you are always on the go. The low weight guarantees versatility. Both fluid heads are composed of lightweight, yet stable glass fiber reinforced composite material. Ace M is sold with an aluminum tripod; Ace L comes in a system with two different carbon fiber tripods. Configurations Both Ace M and Ace L are exclusively available as a package with a 75 mm tripod and a useful transport bag. Anybody who works on uneven ground and “on location” would have an advantage with the two-stage extension tripods featuring a mid-level spreader. In the studio and on uneven ground, the ground spreader provides increased stability. Anybody who chooses the Ace L with the telescopic tripod TT 75/2 CF will benefit from the particularly wide height range. 35 www.sachtler.com Fluidheads

We have already worked in 18 countries—in the Brazilian jungle, on the beach in China and on Table Mountain in Capetown. Ace scores points with weight, easy handling and dependability. That was important for us, and that‘s exactly what we have now.
