1030D/1030Ds Fluid Head
Preface
Congratulations on the purchase of your new 1030D/1030Ds fluid head from OConnor!
We want you to get the most from your new 1030, and therefore encourage you to read this
operator’s guide to familiarize yourself with its many features, some of which may be new to you.
It also covers essential health and safety information and a section on maintenance that will
ensure your new product is kept in perfect condition.
Please register your purchase online at www.ocon.com.
Features and benefits of your new 1030
• The 1030D/Ds is the smallest in OConnor’s Ultimate range of fluid heads and
features OConnor’s stepless counterbalance system as well as ultra-smooth
pan and tilt fluid drag designed for cine-style shooting.
• A new collapsible counterbalance crank handle makes balancing the payload
easier. The new 1030 has all controls on the camera operator’s side of the
head (on the left or ‘smart’ side) and features platform scales and two rosette
handle mountings on either side of the head.
• OConnor’s patented fluid drag system allows extremely quick pan movements
from one position to another, recovering instantly without any springback.
• You can set up easily in low light conditions using the illuminated bubble level.
