Cartoni To Present MIXO 21 Fluid Head

News Image
Cartoni is to present the MIXO 21, a new fluid head designed for today’s fast-paced ENG operators & field productions.

This isn't just an upgrade, it's a technical evolution. Compact, powerful, and intuitive, the MIXO 21 delivers unmatched performance with a form factor built for mobility.

Weighing just 3.6 kg (46.29 lbs), the new MIXO 21 blends the proven reliability of Cartoni's patented continuous counterbalance system with a new 7-Step fluid drag mechanism, offering operators the perfect tactile experience. With 7+0 drag settings on both pan and tilt, users can dial in the precise resistance for any shot.

Capable of supporting payloads from 0 to 21 kg with a tilt angle of +/-90°, the 100mm bowl or flat-base MIXO 21 adapts seamlessly from lightweight DSLR rigs to fully outfitted ENG cameras. Whether covering breaking news, sports, HoW or documentary content, this head delivers smooth tilts, intuitive drag, pan free-wheeling option and full control. Feather-light moves or cinematic resistance, your shot, your way.

At its core, the MIXO 21 inherits Cartoni's patented continuous counterbalance tech used in the acclaimed Focus & Master lines with a wide range step fluid drag covering all narrative styles. Field-ready, it meets the demanding needs of camera operators without compromising quality or performance.

In addition to launching the MIXO 21, Cartoni will showcase the Encoded E-Master 30 with its VR Box 2.0, offering advanced control for XR, SFX, VFX, and virtual production environments. These E-series heads provide real-time positional metadata, a must-have for today’s data-driven production workflows, allowing seamless integration with graphics engines and enhancing immersion for sports broadcasts and virtual sets.
