This is a course to see the most popular monopods and tripods. In addition to the Widendham standard “FSB 6 Mk II” and “FSB 8 Mk II”, the 100mm series will also be on display. We want you to actually pick them up and experience the difference in operability and feel. Chinese manufacturers are thriving in the monopod and tripod market. Be sure to check out the SmallRig and YC Onion booths, which are exhibiting monopods and tripods that can be set up with just one-handed lever operation.
Applications are now being accepted!
“Inter BEE 2024 Venue Tour” for Students
01 Widendham Production Solutions (#4201)
Tripod System “FSB MkⅡflowtech75 System Package”
At the Videndam Production Solutions booth, in addition to the FSB6MkII and FSB8MkII, the 100mm series was also on display. The higher-compatible aktiv series was also on display, so please come and experience the difference in operability and feel for yourself.
Orders for the FSB6/8MkII flowtech package, which had been suspended due to production reasons since the second half of 2021, have resumed. Compared to previous models, the FSB MkII head has an increased load capacity range of 2 kg and an increased number of counterbalance dials, allowing for a more suitable setup for different camera configurations.
In addition, the use of a prism level makes it easy to adjust the leveling at high positions. The familiar operation of conventional FSB is possible, and the high-speed setup mechanism of flowtech and its versatility according to the usage environment have improved the workflow and increased the freedom of shooting.
Other products on display at the company’s booth will include Sachtler’s rebranded “CINE Series Tripods,” OConnor’s platinum edition “2575E Head” commemorating the company’s 75th anniversary, Vinten’s “Versine360” head for sports and broadcasting announced at IBC, as well as the “Osprey” series of detachable simple pedestals, and Litepanels’ “ASTRA IP,” the company’s acclaimed LED panel light ASTRA that complies with IP65 standards.

Compact zoom remote control “ZC-8/ZC-12/ZC-20”
Heiwa Seiki Kogyo announced three new compact zoom remote controls in early October. The ZC-8, ZC-12 and ZC-20 are compact remote controls for servo zoom lenses that can be easily attached to the pan bar. In fact, after the announcement of these remote controls, they posted a teaser for a new tripod product on social media. It seems that they will be exhibiting a one-action tripod at Inter BEE.

Fluid Head & Tripod Kit “TSN6CF-Q PLUS”
If you’re interested in a tripod, check out the TERIS TSN6CF-Q carbon fiber tripod and fluid head set, which allows for quick setup and teardown. The two-section legs have one locking lever that can be unlocked separately for each leg. The lever is large and easy to use. The head has a 75mm ball mount and features tilt brake knob, pan brake knob, and adjustable tilt and pan drag.
05 Dongguan YC Onion Network Technology (#8105)
Monopod “PINETA Pro Monopod”
Chinese camera accessory manufacturer YC ONION will be exhibiting at Inter BEE for the first time. They will be displaying the monopod “PINETA Pro Monopod,” which has just been released. The great thing about the Pineta Pro is that you can adjust the height just by “squeezing” and “loosening” the lever. It is convenient to be able to adjust the height in an instant and achieve a different angle instantly.
