Cartoni Mixo 21 Fluid Head

Precision Control for Lightweight and Professional Rigs

The Cartoni Mixo 21 Fluid Head is engineered for real-world shooting, combining Cartoni’s patented continuous counterbalance system from the Focus and Master lines with a newly developed 7-step fluid drag for both pan and tilt, including a zero-setting. This allows operators to fine-tune resistance to match their desired motion style, from feather-light pans to cinematic, precise camera movements. Adjustments are intuitive and seamless, enabling operators to achieve the perfect balance instantly.

With a weight of just 3.6 kg (8 lbs), the Mixo 21 supports payloads from 0 to 21 kg (46 lbs), making it versatile enough for lightweight DSLR rigs as well as fully equipped ENG cameras. Its tilt range of +/- 90° adapts to a wide variety of shooting setups. The fluid head is available with a 100 mm bowl or as a flat-base version, offering compatibility with a broad range of tripods and mounting systems.

The Mixo 21 excels in dynamic production environments such as live sports coverage, breaking news, or documentary filmmaking, where speed, reliability, and precision are crucial. Smooth tilts, ergonomic controls, and instant adaptability make it a trusted tool for professional operators who demand consistent performance under pressure.

By addressing the growing demand for lightweight, mobile fluid heads with professional payload capacity, the Mixo 21 positions Cartoni as a solution provider for operators seeking both mobility and precision. Engineered and made in Italy, it combines durability, premium technology, and ergonomic design. With a five-year free warranty, it guarantees dependable performance for every production scenario.
