A camera support for allowing stationary and stabilized mobile use of a video camera, comprising a base which is capable of free-standing upon a horizontal surface, a camera mount, and a vertical support extending between the base and camera mount. A gimbal bearing assembly is located on the vertical support, having an outer sleeve which is biaxially movable with respect to the vertical support, so that the entire camera support can be supported by the user holding the outer sleeve, allowing the user to move while the vertical support remains stabilized in an upright position. The base has a tripartite construction which is adjustable to balance the camera weight and has retractable legs to which dolly wheels may be removably mounted for an additional mode of mobile operation. |
