Let’s face it, 99% of tripod pan bar/handles suck! They flex, slip, strip, and are an underwhelming afterthought in tripod design. This is a shame as the pan bar is what directly interfaces with the fluid head, thus, any shortcomings of the handle translate into your footage. We decided to solve this once and for all by creating a universal 4-tooth rosette and adapting it to an ARRI-style 60-tooth M6 standard. You’re welcome. We tested a range of proprietary rosettes and found the 4-tooth design able to interact with all of them. Included in the kit are the most standard options of mounting bolts for tripod rosettes: ¼”-20, ⅜”-16, M6, and M8. Once you’ve matched which bolt interacts with your tripod, install the bolt in the rosette adapter and then mount the ARRI-style rosette via the included 4x M3 x 8mm flat head bolts. This captive bolt design prevents accidental loss of the mounting hardware. Once installed on the tripod, you can now mount any standard rosette accessory. Our favorite is the Pro Rosette Extension Arm and Trigger Wing Side Handle combination. With the proper LANC cable, you can now control your compatible camera’s start/stop via the grip. This new ultra-pan arm is an incredible combo. It’s stiff and responsive and offers a range of new mounts and functions to improve your workflow and quality output while operating on a tripod.
