For Manfrotto, NAB 2006 was a huge success, and is proud to announce that the revolutionary 560B Fluid Monopod came out on top as ?Best of Show,? winning Videography Magazine?s 2006 Vidy Award. The 2006 Vidy Awards were presented during NAB in recognition of outstanding achievement in the advancement of the art and science of video technology. Winners were selected by the editors of Videography, published by CMP Entertainment Media's Video Group
"Our editors searched the NAB show floor for products that were truly innovative and that will enhance workflow for our readers," states Doug Krainman, publisher of CMP Entertainment Media's Video Group. "The winners of these awards have shown a deep understanding of their users? needs and have created products that will make video professionals' jobs easier and projects better. They deserve the recognition that these awards bestow on them."
Manfrotto, the world?s leading manufacturer of photographic and video support products, reshaped the landscape of the video industry with the introduction of the world?s first monopod with fluid cartridges. The 560B Fluid Monopod brings portability and quality video together with its lightweight, stable and fluid design, allowing for smooth panning and image capture in any environment. Designed for compact mini DV and HDV cameras, the 560B Fluid Video Monopod is highly portable and offers fold up stainless steel feet for additional stability on uneven ground.
With the 560B Fluid Video Monopod, Manfrotto allows videographers to produce smooth images even in tight spaces or environments where a tripod may not be allowed, such as sports stadiums, public parks and museums. The 560B Fluid Monopod provides the stability and quality of a traditional stabilizing device with a fluid head that delivers superior images. The fluid head provides soft movement for smooth and jump-free pans or tilts.
The 560B Fluid Monopod is lightweight yet tough. For additional stability on uneven ground, the monopod features three stainless steel knobbed feet, which also fold for compact transportation. At the base, a pivot allows for more extensive tilt capabilities and an additional fluid cartridge allows for additional smooth and flawless panning. Its easy lock-off knob secures the current angle setting for angle consistency and stability. The 560B Fluid Monopod also features a counterbalance to help keep weight centered for a steadier camera.
