Revolutionise the way you work – wherever and however you work – with flowtech, the world’s fastest tripod.
Performance tested in extreme conditions, flowtech® is a revolution in tripod technology, giving the camera operator ultimate versatility and improving their workflow.
For rapid setup and precise positioning, the tripod legs deploy simultaneously, while top-mounted levers offer comfortable and secure control of your camera and lens for effortless height adjustments on any surface.
flowtech® comes with a hinge lock mechanism that gives camera operators ultimate versatility.
The hinge lock enables flowtech® to be used without a spreader, offering three leg angles: 72°, 46°, and 20°. This allows a setup height as low as 26 cm or as high as 157 cm.
When paired with an aktiv fluid head, the legs can also open fully to 90° for ground-level positioning.
flowtech® is ergonomically designed to comfortably rest on the camera operator’s shoulder while magnetic locks offer an easy, quick method for locking the legs together during transport.
Tested in the most punishing environments, flowtech® excels in sludge, sand and extreme temperatures.
Tried in over 30,000 lab-testing cycles – in which the tripod is repeatedly deployed – and 1.5 million clamp operations on the test endurance rig, flowtech® surpasses Sachtler’s stringent performance targets.
“After owning a ton of tripods, the Sachtler flowtech 75 is hands down the best tripod I have ever used.”
Armando Ferreira@mondobytes
“This is the best tripod out there for documentary filmmakers, run and gun videographers, and any cinematographer that needs a great strength to weight ratio.”
Luc Forsyth@LucForsyth
“I've used pretty much every kind of tripod this world has to offer. Some really expensive, and a lot that's really cheap. The Sachtler flowtech series with the aktiv 8 head is by far the best bang for your buck”
Jamal Ward@FlashForwardmg
All flowtech® tripods are compatible with a range of accessories designed to enhance versatility and ease of use. These include mid-level and ground spreaders, various foot options, carry handles, and dedicated transport bags.
