Engineered for the Demands of Cinema
Meet the Tilta CT08—your new secret weapon for cinematic precision. This powerhouse combo of cine fluid head and 3-stage carbon fiber tripod legs is designed from the ground up for professionals who demand both control and rugged reliability in extreme environments. Whether you're locked into a detailed studio setup or chasing fast-moving action on unpredictable terrain, the CT08 doesn’t flinch.
Fluid Movement, Locked-in Control
The fluid head is engineered to support camera systems from 2.2 to 17.5 lbs with silky-smooth pan and tilt movements. With 8 levels of dynamic counterbalance and 4 levels of drag, every movement feels intuitive and cinematic—whether you’re capturing slow, dramatic pans or fast-paced tracking shots. The result? Motion that feels just right every time.
Strength Where It Counts
The carbon fiber legs are no ordinary set of sticks. Built using a reinforced wrapping technique, each 36mm leg delivers rock-solid support for payloads up to 110 lbs. That’s serious stability, even when you're pushing the limits with heavy cinema rigs. And thanks to the retractable spiked feet, the tripod bites into rugged ground just as well as it cushions delicate studio floors.

Ready for Any Climate
From arctic chill to desert heat, the CT08 is built to keep going. With a working temperature range from -58°F to 140°F, your gear won’t hold you back—no matter what environment you’re dropped into. Plus, aerospace-grade aluminum alloy and CNC machining ensure every part fits and functions like a dream, day after day, shoot after shoot.
Adaptable, Efficient, and Built to Last
Whether you’re working with a gimbal or a traditional tripod head, the CT08’s native Manfrotto plate and DJI-standard Arca-Swiss compatibility keep your setup transitions seamless. And with adjustable leg angles—including ultra-low shots just inches from the ground—you’ve got total flexibility in any scenario. It even includes multiple threaded mounts for your accessories, monitors, or support arms.
