SHAPE has introduced a new line of heavy-duty video tripods, the SHAPE Pro Video Tripods ST15 and ST20. The Canadian camera accessory manufacturer claims these tripod systems are “built to withstand the rigors of the set and last a lifetime”. Let’s check out the specs and see what these new camera supports can do. SHAPE offers a range of video production solutions from camera cages, bags, and supports to follow focuses and batteries. CineD covered the release of their SHAPE SVT10K, an affordable fluid head tripod for cameras up to 22 lbs (10kg). These two new systems, however, are aimed at a higher-end market and are designed to support heavier cinema rigs.
