FS: MILLER 55 ARROW + CF Tripod

[Tim Whitcomb]

TRADE PENDING

Hello-

Up for sale is a our lightweight Miller 55 Arrow Head and Carbon Fiber Legs.
Excellent condition, recently serviced to tighten a wobble and since has performed flawlessly on 2 Shorts and 1 Feature over last 90 days. Super Clean as is usual with Carbon Fiber sticks. Top Plate has usual light wear from mountings.

Only selling to upgrade our kit to a FULL Cinema Package. Too often lately, our DP's and A/C's tend to prefer/request the O'Connor 2575D so its time to move up to the industry standard for features. We dont do much run-gun which this is awesome for, or indies.

I personally love this Miller, as it easily handles the R1 and a large RPP with ease (Capacity is 55lbs) and the "7" setting is super stiff for smooth pans and tilts. Espcially easy to carry with the lightweight rods and fully padded case. And Mid Level Spreader Included.

Exact Same Model here sells for $6135 with Quick Release Plate (included)

Save over $2000 off new as this is priced fairly for a quick sale at $4000 Firm + plus Shipping. We will also box the case up to keep it looking mint while shipping. Bank Draft/Wire preferred given the price. Thank You.

PICS ARE OF ACTUAL UNIT FOR SALE - PM for any more Details.

If I had the coin on me, I'd buy it- but I'm saving the cash for the sensor upgrade. I can say, however, that I have used this head on a couple of productions at Tim's studio and it is in good condition and works well.

mmm..the legs look awful skinny thin to hold a Red ?...also how low does it go if spread out on the bottom level ?

I have a set of 55's and they have served me well. They handle a redone well, especially for run and gun shoots. For a fully loaded Red, I usually go bigger but the 55 is going to be a perfect set for the epic and scarlet. The lowest they go is about 25".

Ill post some pics of it fully extended with a loaded RED if you are serious.

Carbon Fiber is light but very strong my man.. even Pandorans have Carbon Fiber bones making them very hard to kill

Seriously, its a nice tripod and head for the R1. Rated at 55lbs and our full cinema RED with RPP Arri MB and FF and Red Brick and Accessories is about 38lbs.

Id guess min height is 28" to 32", those specs should be available online.

thanks Ryan, wish I could keep both but at $13,000 just for the 2575D Head, we need to sell this to offset the upgrade expense...

Gots to Keep A/C Jerry Turner happy afterall WHich means Ill also be upgrading back to FF-4 and MB-20II as well...
