About Ikan DS2-A + MPA70

The Beholder DS2-A is designed specifically for professional filmmakers looking for a single handheld stabilizer for a large range of small cameras weighing up to 4 lbs. The DS2-A features a unique angled roll motor arm, which allows you to have a better view of the camera's screen while using the gimbal. In addition, the DS2-A also features a 60 second Auto-Sweep mode, which allows you to program a 60 second camera movement. The Beholder DS2-A is lightweight, easy to use and can be carried in your camera bag. It is also versatile enough to be used with a DSLR, mirrorless camera, GoPro or smartphone.

• Durable all aluminum construction
• 360 Degree movement from pan axis
• Work with cameras up to 4 lbs (1814 g)
• Multiple modes of operation
• Equipped with 3-axis gyro stabilized brushless motors to balance most mirrorless cameras as well as smartphones and GoPro cameras
• Angled Motor Arm

Angled Motor Arm
The DS2-A is the first iKan Beholder gimbal to feature an angled motor arm that gives you an unobstructed view of the camera's screen. This makes it easier to frame your shots and follow the action.

360 Motor
The DS2-A features a 360 degree rotation brushless motor on the yaw axis for a higher range of mobility.

Designed for Multiple Cameras
With a payload of up to 4 lbs., the DS2-A has the ability to stabilize a wide range of today's popular DSLR and mirrorless cameras including the: Canon 5D Mark IV, Canon 6D, Canon 7D, Sony a6300, Sony a7SII, Panasonic GH5, GoPro or smartphone.

Advanced Stabilization
Using a 32-bit controller with a 12-bit encoder, the DS2-A uses an adaptive PID algorithm to produce an efficient handheld stabilizer. This means that the gimbal will respond faster, balance easier and have greater battery life.

Lock Mode
In Lock Mode, the yaw, pitch and roll axis work together to keep the camera pointed in one direction. The camera's composition will stay the same no matter how you move the handle.

Auto Inversion
Switch to Inverted Mode at any time by simply flipping the handle over the camera. Inverted Mode can be operated in conjunction with any of the Lock and Follow Modes.

Multiple Follow Modes
The DS2-A features 3 different follow modes. In YawAxis Follow Mode, the DS2-A will only follow your pan movements. In Pitch and Yaw-Axis Follow mode, the DS2-A will follow your pan and tilt movements. Finally, the 3-Axis Follow Mode gives you full control allowing you to pan, tilt and roll.

60 Second Auto-Sweep
The DS2-A features a 60 Second Auto-Sweep function, which allows you to program a 60 second movement. Position the camera at the end point and then press the mode button 5 times. Then, position the camera at the start point and let the DS2-A do the rest! The camera will move from one point to the other in a 60 second time frame.

MPA70 5-Section Lightweight Aluminum Monopod for Photo & Video
