02Performance

High performance with advanced features.

The professionally designed 2-axis Jr. Pan-Tilt Head ensures perfect camera balance and smooth camerawork at all times. It can be mounted vertically or underslung.

The head pans and tilts through 360°, so the camera can point directly upwards or downwards when required. Pan and tilt speeds are variable, from a minimum of 6° per second for slow and smooth moves to a maximum of 51° per second for faster, yet smooth pans and tilts.

Two high-quality coreless motors and backlash-free gears work precisely, quietly and dynamically. The motor drive can be easily disengaged to balance the camera on the camera plate, and the high-strength brass gears are engineered to withstand long hours of operation with minimal wear and tear.

Jr. pan tilt head

Proaim digital joystick controller with pan and tilt speed, dead spot, damping and direction controls

Joystick control

03Joystick control

Easy operation.

  1. 01

    Damping control

    Prevents the head from stopping abruptly, giving you smooth endings. Rotate the damping knob clockwise to increase the amount of damping.

  2. 02

    Dead spot control

    Sets the centre band of the joystick where no motion occurs, so there’s no crossover to the other axis when it isn’t wanted. If the head moves without the joystick being deflected, rotate this knob clockwise to adjust the centring. For the best performance when reversing the head, set the dead spot knob to 30–40%.

  3. 03

    Pan/tilt direction

    Reverse the panning and tilting direction whenever required with the reversal switch. Damping still works during the reversal, which makes this switch the best way to reverse the pan tilt head.

Q&A

Ask a Question



  • Any idea how to control Zoom and Focus using this head?

    The controls on the Proaim Jr Pan/Tilt Head are for the pan and tilt head exclusively, and do not interface with the camera or control it.The easiest way to control your camera's zoom/focus while it is on a crane or jib would be a wireless follow focus system.

  • What exactly do the damping controls do? Do they control the "ramp up" and "ramp down" speeds on the motors?

    The damping control of the Proaim Jr Pan/Tilt Head with Joystick Control prevents the Head from stopping with a jerk enabling you to achieve smooth endings.

  • How noisy is it? Compared to the VZ-MC50? Will a nice boom mic, like an MKH 416, pick it up from a few feet away?

    It is not unduly loud. A nice boom mic, properly positioned, will not pick up the noise from the motors.

  • Is the joystick proportional speed or is it strictly directional?

    The Proaim Jr Pan/Tilt Head with Joystick has proportional speed only.

  • Does this come with the proaim power pack?

    No, the Jr Pan/Tilt Head will not come with the Proaim Power Pack. It will come with a standard power supply and an Worldwide Power Converter.

  • How much power can use this for 3 hours filming? I have 101V battery do you think this battery is enough for one camera and Proaim to use the at the same time?

    PT-JR operates on 12-volt DC, and we provide an AC adapter designed for this purpose. The adapter accepts an input of 100-240V AC and provides an output of 12V DC.
    Also, if your battery has 80watt, then you can use it for 5-6 hours.

  • Can the motors run on 18V DC or should I step down out batteries to 12V?

    You can use max battery power of 12V.

  • Is this DMX controllable?

    No, there is no connection of DMX with the Proaim Jr. pan tilt head.

Proaim Professional Motorized Jr. Pan Tile Head

So far, I am liking it quite a bit. I have a Kessler Crane 12 that I was previously using a simple motorized head with less than stellar results, but was able to get the job done when not much was needed. I recently did a shoot that required a more complete and wider range. So I purchased the Jr. and used a Sony Z-90, Sennheiser G3 system with the talent wearing the lapel mic. The controller is large (with mounting options) and has a good-sized joystick. The head comes with ac power connections which allow you to use it plugged into an outlet. Very solidly mounts to the headplate of the Kessler Crane.
