Sliding Balance Plate
Sliding camera mount and plate with a 4.4-inch sliding range, makes a fast balancing system for the camera and ensures perfect balance across the horizontal plane.
Dynamic Counterbalancing System
The 18 Step dynamic counterbalancing system, with 9-stage fine-tuning in half steps compensates for torques as the camera tilts. This prevents the camera from inadvertently tipping, and ensures that it is positioned securely at any tilt angle. These features can be activated and deactivated individually.
CIII Pedestal System
Air Pressurized Pneumatic Column
The pedestal is anchored by a pneumatic column. The system works on the principle of compressed air, which acts as a counterweight and allows for quick height adjustments. An air pressure gauge gives the user instant indication of correct pressure.
Silent Dolly Movement
Silent dolly movement is very important in a studio where sounds can easily carry into the production.
