We’ve had a lot of customers inquiring about the status of this new, inexpensive tripod system from Sachtler, so we thought we’d make an official announcement that the Sachtler ACE M MS Tripod System is now in stock at Filmtools and ready to ship.
When the retail price of this product was announced Back in September as being around $600, it created a bit of a buzz as it is the most economically priced Sachtler tripod system on the market.
Designed with smaller HDV camcorders and DSLR cameras in mind, the Sachtler ACE features 3 vertical and 3 horizontal grades of drag, and has a payload range of 0 to 4 kilograms (0 to 8.8 lbs), making it a great solution for those who shoot low-budget documentaries / ENG, industrials, wedding/event, training videos and webinars. It features the quality and reliability that makes Sachtler one of the most sought after brands in camera support equipment, while reaching out to a whole new market with it’s low price.

Does anybody have a TILT issue with the Sachtler Ace head? Seems that my level of tension are not working properly. The pan is doing fine, but I don’t see any difference from the 1st level of tension to the 3rd level on the tilt. Is this normal or what?
