808RC4
The 808RC4 features the new Double Axis Spring System, which consists of a built in 3.31 lbs spring for both the front tilt and side tilt movements. This innovative solution, borrowed from the video industry, helps to move smoothly the camera while framing the picture as it negates some of the camera weight. Moreover it absorbs the shock of bodies and lenses when reaching the end stop of the head movement. Should this feature, in view of the extreme lightness of the camera and lens combination use, disturb the shooting session it is always possible to exclude one or both springs by two separate knobs.

Design: In photography image is everything and we took this maxim to heart with the 808RC4. We have modernized the overall shape and rounded many of the hard edges to produce a fresh and elegant product. The new handles are designed to fit comfortably in your hand even taking into consideration your fingers. We are also using a new coating on our quick-release lever that is more durable and scratch resistant than the past levers.

Quick Release Camera Plate: With the introduction of this head we will stop manufacturing the 3047 and 329RC4 models. This is why this head has been equipped with a 3271 type of plate: because our goal is to unify all our heads systems to only two types of camera plates, the one used on this head and the 3157N system.

804RC2
Lightweight and Counter-Balance
Pick up the new 804RC2 and you will be amazed at how light this full-featured, light-weight head can be.

Compared to the old 3030, the 804RC2 is 20% lighter! This weight savings is due to a new material called Adapto* specifically developed by Manfrotto for the use with high-end, professional imaging equipment.

Ergonics + World Class Design
In photography, where image is everything, Manfrotto took this maxim to heart with the 804RC2. A modernized II shape plus rounding of many of the traditional hard edges produced a fresh and elegant head. The new handles are designed to fit comfortably in your hand even taking into consideration your fingers. There’s even a new coating on the quick-release lever that is more durable and scratch resistant than ever!

Safety Spring
The 804RC2 head is also the first head in the world to use a counter spring system to help protect your equipment. Built into the forward/back tilt axis a fixed spring helps to absorb the shock of the full camera weight from crashing down. The spring also makes it easier to position the camera on this axis since it opposes some of the camera weight. For example, without the spring, if you are using a telephoto lens and tilt forward using a standard head, your arm needs to work hard to counteract the weight of the camera + lens. But, with the 804RC2’s built-in spring, the head is actually doing most of the counter work for you thereby helping you to easily set the camera in shooting position.

This head is a replacement for the 3030.
