Sirui VHS18 Professional Fluid Video Head

Professional fluid head for smooth, controlled video work

The Sirui VHS18 Professional Fluid Video Head is designed for filmmakers who need precise movement, stable support, and dependable balance. With fluid drag, a 10-step counterbalance system, and adjustable pan and tilt resistance, it helps you achieve clean, cinematic camera motion in a wide range of shooting setups.

Built for flexible camera setups

This video head supports payloads from 1.5 kg up to 18 kg, making it suitable for both compact rigs and heavier professional configurations. The counterbalance system offers 10 distinct steps, allowing you to hold the camera in position with confidence across different equipment weights.

Because the counterbalance is stepped rather than continuously adjustable, changing accessories may affect balance. The 7+0 drag control for panning and tilting gives you the freedom to fine-tune movement for smoother operation while shooting.

Easy positioning and wide movement range

The VHS18 provides 360° pan rotation and a tilt range from -65° to +90°, giving you the flexibility to frame shots from low-angle perspectives to elevated camera positions. A side-loading design makes mounting quick and convenient, letting you place your camera from one side instead of using a traditional top-loading system.

After side loading, the head offers a 30 mm sliding adjustment range, which is especially useful when working with telephoto lenses and longer camera setups.
