Motion Tracked URSA Camera

Great tripod head for the price. Bought it to hold a URSA 12K Pro with a Canon Cine-Server 17-120, AC Monitor on a magic arm and a Redspy Camera Tracking system with Focus & Zoom Controls on Arms and it didn't skip a weight on counterbalance!

None Better

A solid unit with quick and easy operation. If your rig is on the heavy side, this is the kit you need. With the capacity to take on heavy rigs this kit is still lightweight.
