Tripod NEWTON™ CG-2881
The CineGEN® CG-2881 tripod is a versatile tool for filmmakers and photographers, supporting up to 10kg of gear. Its smooth video head ensures fluid and repeatable shots, while the telescopic legs offer stability and height adjustment.
The CineGEN® CG-2881 NEWTON™ series tripod is designed for filming with DSLRs and video cameras weighing up to 10kg. The well-functioning video head allows for smooth and repeatable shots. This tripod belongs to the photo-video category, but its forte is filming. Unmatched in terms of value for money - a revelation.
Tripod
The telescopically foldable, three-section tripod allows for stable positioning. Rubber feet mounted on ball joints adapt to uneven terrain. The built-in spirit level in the tripod's housing helps assess its stability. The tripod sections are adjusted using classic, proven clamps from other models. The legs are made of thick aluminum profiles with a cross-section chosen to increase stiffness. All this results in unmatched stability for this class. Additionally, the central column ends at the height of the middle tripod joint with a hook that allows for additional weighting during filming or photography sessions.
An additional handle on the shaft enables repositioning the tripod, and foam leg protectors prevent contact with cold metal on chilly days. The shaft features a crank-operated mechanism for precise height adjustment. The extended shaft's height is 39.5cm. This tripod outperforms other models in its category regarding stability and maximum height of 1.8m (excellent for filming outdoor events, groups of people, etc.).

Head
The head's primary components are made of plastic, yet the large bearing cassette ensures it operates with great precision, smoothly and stably, giving the impression of working with high-end equipment. The large quick release plate allows for a solid and stable mounting of cameras or DSLRs. The standard 1/4" screw enables the installation of most cameras and DSLRs on the market. The head handle ends in a sturdy foam grip. The head can be disassembled and used for work on sliders, cranes, or dollies. It is equipped with a standard mounting hole (hole at the bottom of the head) 3/8".

CineGEN® — studio equipment designed by practitioners
CineGEN® is a Polish studio equipment brand we created in 2011 in Janki near Warsaw. We don't have 35 years of tradition or offices on two continents — what we do have is around 40,000 orders with CineGEN® products fulfilled every year and 15 years of working with light, which taught us what actually works in a studio.
The brand was born for a simple reason: selling other people's equipment, we too often had to explain flaws we had no control over. We preferred taking responsibility to making excuses — so we started building our own.
How we work
Specifications and part of the designs are created in Poland; manufacturing takes place in China, under our supervision. We say this openly, because that's how studio equipment is made all over the world today. The difference lies in who sets the requirements and who answers for the result: every batch arrives at our warehouse in Janki, where we inspect it, and before a product enters our catalogue, we work with it ourselves — on packshots, portraits and video shoots.
Our product descriptions state real parameters and real limitations. A 200 PLN lamp won't replace a 2,000 PLN kit — and we won't pretend otherwise.
What you'll find under the CineGEN® brand
Continuous lighting (FlatLight™, Lumifi™, ReLed™, Ensö™ panels with CRI >95), Ignitix™ photographic bulbs, softboxes and light modifiers, lighting, photo and video stands and tripods (including the Jupiter™ series), and home studio kits.
What we stand behind
CineGEN® is a trademark protected at the Patent Office of the Republic of Poland (application Z.574925, rights held by Digishots Sp. z o.o.).
Warranty service and spare parts are handled at our facility in Janki — no shipping your gear "back to the manufacturer".
You can see the equipment in person at our location in Janki (ul. Poniatowskiego 17), and you'll find tests and tutorials on the digishots.pl blog and the CineGEN YouTube channel.
