Introduction

Thank you for purchasing the Compass XV Fluid Head. The

Compass XV Fluid Head has been designed to suit a wide

range of cameras, lenses and accessories as demanded by

professional users.

The robust design and construction of the Compass XV Fluid

Head offers maximum stability and durability and includes a

precision drag plate system in the pan and tilt assembly to

deliver true fluid drag performance over the entire temperature

and payload range.

The fluid drag and the counterbalance system were designed to

provide excellent control and repeatability and offer progressive

equal increments of drag and torque through the unique radial

ring design.

The Compass XV Fluid Head will give best performance when

used on a wide range of Miller tripods, including SOLO, Toggle,

Sprinter II and HD Tripods (depending on bowl size). This will

ensure maximum system stability to suit any professional set-up.

The Compass XV Fluid Head will suit most industry standard

75mm and 100mm tripods as well, please refer to manufactures'

manual for mounting details.

The Compass XV comes with the Versa base plate and camera

plate. The Versa plate is a side loading design compatible with

the Manfrotto PL501 plate, however, over and above, has

several advantages. It has a long sliding range of 100 mm, for

easier balancing and is reversable so it can be mounted onto the

camera in either direction. The Versa plate is also painted in a

burnt orange colour for easy identification.
