Precisely Engineered

The Proaim Mini Orion Gear Head is engineered to precisely fulfil the need & ease of every Filmmaker, Videomaker & Photographer.

The cranks have counterbalance mechanism means it stays where you leave it.
Its Friction & Locking Mechanism controls the resistance of the pan bar. And let’s you keep the panning crank in a static position when you want to use only tilt movement.
Before using, make sure to properly balance your camera on the camera mounting plate and to fine-tune the setup with adjustment knob to suit your requirements.

Robust & Hassle-free Design

The high-strength metal body & gears are engineered for maximum durability & minimum wear and tear.
Likewise, it has Gun-Metal Gears that ensure very smooth & soundless operations, certainly promising a high level of performance.
The inclusion of a 100mm mounting bowl at the base of the head facilitates secure and stable attachment to a tripod.
Fluid heads fail to deliver error-free results when working with horizontal and vertical lines. In contrast, Orion Mini Gear Head allows you to pan the camera in the mm range.
Along with these advantages, it is one of the most valuable addition to architectural, cityscape, and still life photography.
