About the OCONNOR Ultimate 2575E Platinum Edition

Celebrating 75 years of innovation, OConnor presents the Ultimate 2575E Platinum Edition, an evolution of the industry-standard fluid head. This edition builds upon the legacy of the original 2575E, renowned for its reliability and performance in cinematic productions. The Platinum Edition enhances this classic with modern features and design elements, ensuring it remains the top choice for demanding professionals. It offers unparalleled control and stability for a wide range of camera setups and shooting styles.

The 2575E Platinum Edition incorporates OConnor’s patented sinusoidal counterbalance system, providing true and accurate balance throughout the entire tilt range. This system works in conjunction with OConnor’s signature stepless, ultra-smooth pan and tilt fluid drag, granting operators ultimate control and stability for capturing smooth, cinematic movements. The fluid head allows for seamless transitions from rapid whip pans to delicate long lens framing, ensuring every shot is executed with precision. The Platinum Edition introduces enhancements like a stainless steel center lock and a new platform release mechanism for improved ease of use and security.

Beyond its core functionality, the Platinum Edition boasts several key upgrades that enhance the user experience. A lightweight carbon fiber cover replaces the traditional plastic component, contributing to the head's overall lightweight design. Improved level bubble illumination ensures easy viewing in any lighting condition, while a clear Mitchell key position marker streamlines setup times. With a fresh gray colorway and black detailing, the 2575E Platinum Edition not only performs exceptionally but also looks the part. Its robust magnesium housing ensures best-in-class performance, power-to-weight ratio, and long-term reliability.
