The OConnor 2575 is considered one of the most respected fluid heads in professional cinematography and has become a standard choice for feature films, commercials, television drama, and large-format cinema productions worldwide.
Designed around OConnor’s legendary sinusoidal counterbalance system, the 2575 provides smooth and predictable operation throughout the entire tilt range. Unlike stepped counterbalance systems, operators can dial in precise balance regardless of camera configuration, making it ideal for constantly changing builds.
The head is designed to support modern cinema camera packages including:
- ARRI Alexa Mini
- ARRI Alexa 35
- ARRI Alexa Mini LF
- Sony VENICE
- RED V-Raptor XL
- Broadcast camera systems
- Long cinema zooms
- Teleprompter setups
- Remote head payloads
The 2575 excels when operating heavy builds with matte boxes, wireless systems, onboard monitors, cine zooms, batteries, and accessories. Once properly balanced, the camera remains stable throughout the tilt range, allowing operators to execute precise moves without fighting the rig.
For productions in Thailand, where crews often move between studio environments, city locations, beaches, and remote exterior setups, the OConnor 2575 provides the reliability and stability expected on professional productions.
Whether you’re shooting a commercial in Bangkok, a feature film in Chiang Mai, or a broadcast production in Phuket, the 2575 remains one of the most trusted fluid heads available.
