A Pan-Tilt Head is a type of camera mount that allows for smooth horizontal (pan) and vertical (tilt) movement. It is commonly used in photography and videography to capture dynamic shots without having to physically move the camera. This device can be controlled manually or remotely, making it ideal for capturing action or for use in studios. These heads are often used in conjunction with tripods and can be found in various sizes and designs to accommodate different cameras, including DSLRs and video cameras. Some advanced models even feature programmable settings for automated movements, enhancing creative possibilities for filmmakers and photographers alike.
