Libec HS-150 is a tripod system for crews running mirrorless, DSLR and compact broadcast camcorder rigs up to 3 kg. The kit pairs the H15 Dual Base pan/tilt fluid head with an aluminium two-stage, three-section tripod using a 75 mm bowl, plus the SP-2B floor-level spreader and a carry case for fast moves between set, control room and location.

For controlled movement, the head combines continuous counterbalance with a lit 0–100 counterbalance meter, so operators can log a reference and return to it after swapping cages, batteries or lenses. Counterbalance covers 0.8–2.0 kg at a 55 mm centre-of-gravity, and the Variable Switch Torque system provides Free + 3-step drag in both pan and tilt, including a true “free” mode. The drag mechanism uses a multilayer metal structure and silicone grease to keep starts clean, stops controlled and backlash low across -40°C to +60°C, with a +90° / -70° tilt range for high and low angle shots.

Workflow features focus on speed and plate interoperability. The snap-on/off sliding plate docks from the side and aligns with common Sachtler and Manfrotto ecosystems; ±30 mm travel gives precise fore/aft trim for long lenses, matte boxes or front-loaded batteries. Dual rosettes accept left or right pan handles, the handle extension helps micro-pans, and a lit LED bubble level supports fast leveling in dark venues. One flip lock per leg speeds repositioning between takes.

The dual-base interface shifts between a 75 mm bowl and flat-base mounting (3/8″), letting the same head sit on sliders or skater dollies when the support changes but the operating feel stays familiar. Base-mounted 1/4″ and 3/8″ accessory threads hold monitor arms, wireless video or small lights without disturbing balance, while integrated spikes and the spreader stabilise footing on grass, carpet or polished floors for ENG-style b-roll, corporate interviews, conference streaming and house-of-worship productions.

The HS-150 is the ideal model for mirrorless cameras, DSLRs and small handheld camcorders such as the Sony PXW-Z90. This model has the ability to perfectly balance even the lightest settings of a mirrorless camera with kit lenses. For lightweight cameras such as Sony α7, Panasonic GH5 and Canon EOS R5, this model offers excellent camera movements with no compromise. The HS-150 can also support these cameras with commonly used camera rigs.

Perfect Balance
Libec's unique continuous perfect counterbalance system enables the camera to perfectly balance at any tilt angle. This smooth balance system makes it a lot easier for users to concentrate on precise camera movements, even when using a telephoto lens at its maximum zoomed position.

Newly Designed Fluid Head
From scratch, the fluid head was designed to dramatically reduce play inside its superior pan and tilt drag units, dramatically increasing its longevity. From start to finish, this new fluid head provides ultra-smooth movements and is equipped with many features that enhance a user's experience.

Counterbalance Meter
Equipped with a counterbalance meter with the measurement range of 0 to 100. This allows users to glance at the head's minimum/maximum inner spring strength, making camera balances on site a piece of cake.

Advanced Drag Unit
The layered metal unit in the drag system ensures operability, durability and reliability. Thanks to the finest silicon grease applied, the advanced drag unit offers smoother starts and ultimately improved backlash control. In addition, the grease provides ordinary pan and tilt movements at a wide temperature range from -40˚C/-40˚F up to +60˚C/+140˚F. The variable 4 step drag pan tilt system features a zero "free" mode option with no friction. Unlike other brand heads, there is no need to store it in its zero "free" mode.

User Friendly Accessory Port
Equipped on the fluid head's side, there are 1/4 and 3/8 inch screw holes allowing users to attach an accessory arm to hold monitors, lights and other accessories. Since the holes are located on the base, the payload capacity, center of gravity and front-rear balance of the head are not affected.

DualHead
The Dual-head base specification allows for a quick set-up with both 75mm bowl and flat base tripods. The Dual-head base is also compatible with sliders, skater dollies, and photo tripods.

User Friendly Accessory Attachments
On the side of the fluid head, there are 1/4 and 3/8 inch screw holes to attach an accessory arm with a monitor or a light. Since the holes are located on the base, the payload capacity, center of gravity and front-rear balance are not affected.

Double-sided Serrations
Serrations are equipped on both sides of the head to accommodate an additional pan handle or other accessories.

Snap ON/OFF Sliding Plate
The slide plate can be attached and released with just one-touch. Quick and easy setups in the field are easily achieved.

Highly Compatible Slide Plate
Slide plate is compatible with Libec's TH-M, TH-X, TH-Z, and NX Series. This industry standard slide plate is also compatible with other brand tripod systems and accessories, allowing users to quickly swap between a wide range of camera supports.

LED Bubble Level
The bubble level is equipped with an LED light allowing users to level a tripod head in the dark. In addition, the counterbalance meter is also illuminated.

Safety Design
With safety in mind, the tripod legs are carefully designed to prevent users from pinching their fingers when intentionally or unintentionally collapsing their tripod.
