Matthews CAM Tank Mount
Available for Rent in New York City!
Description
The CAM Tank Mount from Matthews is used with all large format camera plates or directly mounts to any large or medium format camera equipped with 3/8″-16 mounting holes. It is designed for low shots, without taking away your ability to pan and tilt the camera. It is also used to achieve dutch angles when mounted to a fluid head, or shots designed to be pointed straight down off of a fluid head on a tripod or jib. The bottom of the plate has 17 strategically placed 3/8″-16 tapped holes spaced 1″ apart, complying with Motion Picture Industry Standards.
The system is CNC machined out of 6061 T6 aluminum, stainless steel hardware. The pan bearing uses a machined polyoxymethylene, delrin disk, which self-lubricates and has an endurance rating 100x. The tilt system uses 4 premium NSK deep grooved ball bearings. Both pan and tilt functions come with brakes for lock off shots and camera safety.
