In a mount, for a TV camera/lens assembly, comprising a front member (19, Fig. 1) and a connected bottom member (21), the turning moment produced at the front member is counteracted by means of a frame member 52 mounted on the rear of the bottom member. Member 52 carries a pivoted distributing plate 57 on which is clamped a camera shoe 56, and a torque screw 61 (Fig. 7) is threaded through member 52 to engage plate 57. The screw knob is turned until it turns freely around the screw body (the end pressure characteristic of the screw having been preselected to counterbalance the turning moment). Shoe 56 is clamped by advancing a detent 72 mounted on a leaf spring 73 into seated position in a recess 71 in the rear of shoe 56 by means of a bell crank toggle handle 86. When a small lens is employed, a pair of wedge elements (41 and 42, Fig. 1) may be used to retain the front portion of the camera instead of a lens coupling to the front member. The mount may adapt a field camera to fit on a studio mount. The mount is of the type disclosed in GB 2096780. <IMAGE> |
