SUPPORT FOR COMPACT VIDEO CAMERA

摘要

The invention relates to a hand-held camera guiding aid for producing evenly moving pictures from close-to-ground or high angles for use in sports or other dynamic recording situations. The camera guiding aid substantially consists of a top (29), a supporting profile (2), holding profile (1) and screen (7), the top (29) being axially displaceable and rotatable in relation to the holding profile (1) and being decoupled from jerky movements that are passed into the holding grip (6) and the supporting grip (9), by means of a spring-damper suspension. As the display is positioned always in the field of vision of the cameraman irrespective of the camera angle and camera position, the recording of pictures can be easily controlled and the camera allows an ergonomic handling. The camera (4) can be swiveled by rotating the supporting profile about the holding profile (1) and tilted by rotating the sleeve (9). The articulated connection of the supporting profile to the holding profile allows the operation of the device in an inverted position of use and therefore the recording of close-to-ground pictures.
