Versatile Placement
The Hi-Hat is incredibly versatile. Use it directly on the ground, on a sturdy apple box, a counter, or a dolly to achieve very low-angle shots or precisely positioned shots for product work.
 

MOY Head Compatibility
Ensure your chosen fluid head has a MOY base to fit securely into this hi-hat. This combination provides maximum stability for heavier camera setups.
 

Levelling on Uneven Surfaces
When placing the hi-hat on uneven ground, use shims or wedges under its feet to ensure the head remains perfectly level, preventing unwanted drift in your shot.
 

Securing the Load
Even with a low profile, ensure your fluid head and camera are securely mounted. The MOY fitting is strong, but always double-check the locking mechanism.
 

Minimal Footprint
Its compact size makes it invaluable in tight spaces where a full-sized tripod would be impractical, allowing for creative camera placement in restricted environments.
