The telescopic suspension rod provides support and fluid-control of the camera. It slots into a belt-mounted support pad.
The suspension rod assists greatly with extreme tilting shots, absorbs potential camera shake on tracking shots, and enables ‘hands-free’ resting between shots.
Wireless receivers, remote controls and viewing monitors can be easily clamped to the rigid but lightweight structure.
The PAG Orbitor is designed to disassemble quickly and easily into manageable parts, suitable for transportation.
The PAG Orbitor is derived from an original idea, developed by PAG, which was prompted by the release of the Canon XL1 in 1998.
The prototype was displayed at IBC in the same year and the principle of its design is now incorporated in this latest version. Professional acceptance of smaller digital camcorders has prompted the release of this product.

This simplified, single-handed version, distributes the weight of the camcorder comfortably between the arm and the shoulder, and provides a stable shooting platform.
It is possible to zoom and frame with one hand whilst supporting the camcorder with the other. The rod and clamp mechanism enables tilting and panning shots to be executed smoothly and without camera shake.
An additional means of support is provided by a stabilising rod that descends to a stomach pad. This is a useful accessory that can be added to the configuration.
