The PRO Dovetail does require a much better understanding of how balance works so you can successfully add weight were you need it and get it balanced in short order. Using the proper technique and counterweight it is possible to perfectly balance a great number of camera/lens configurations!!
CineMilled Counterweight System
As you can see by the “T” shape the rear portion contains a series of 3/8″ threaded holes that allow you to spin-on our threaded weights to counteract heavy lenses/mattebox etc. By doing this you are also adding bottom counterweight to help counteract top heavy camera builds. Counterweights available in 1″, 2″ and XL sized.
Use the Upper PRO Dovetail to add rear counterweight up top if you need more top weight! use the PAN Counterweight Mount to get perfect pan balance even when using large cameras, lenses and counterweights. The 3 parts used together allow you to unlock so many more camera and lens combinations!
The CineMilled PRO Dovetail also accepts the rod support so you can mount lens motors or matte boxes.
A must have for any professional gimbal tech or gimbal operator!
