The Sirui VA-5 Video Head employes a fluid-dampened system to produce smooth pan and tilt movements. Able to support up to 3kg, the ultra-compact and lightweight head is perfect for mirrorless cameras, smaller DSLRs, as well as compact camcorders. Its small size is convenient for mobile videographers, providing reliable and smooth tracking without the added bulk.

3kg Payload and Counterbalance System

Sirui’s VA-5 head is compact and strong, able to support up to 3kg. It works well with mirrorless cameras and also smaller DSLRs and camcorders. An internal 1kg spring-assisted counter-balance mechanism works seamlessly with the head’s panning and tilt drag to help you capture better, more balanced footage with a professional look and feel no matter how your camera is mounted.

Smooth Pan and Tilt Movement with Independent Locking

The VA 5 has fluid -60° to +90° tilting and full 360° panning with the ability to independent lock both for complete control on the horizontal and vertical axes. While panning resistance is pre-set, you can steplessly adjust tilt drag to suit the amount of resistance you need to get the perfect shot.

Quick Release with Dual Safety Lock System

The tripod head is equipped with a quick release mechanism that features an additional safety lock button to prevent the camera plate from accidentally slipping off the head even if the primary locking mechanism is open while you’re aligning your camera.

Sliding Camera Plate

A TY-70A quick-release plate provides up to 70mm forward and backward adjustment for balancing your camera. The camera plate has 1/4-inch and 3/8-inch screws, an anti-rotation video pin and a rubberised surface to prevent your rig from shifting when in motion.

Two Bubble Levels

To help horizontally align your shots, the Sirui VA5 Video Head has two built-in bubble levels; one on the base of the head to align the tripod, and the other on the quick release clamp for aligning the camera. This ensures a quick and easy set-up so you can spend more time filming.
