ABSTRACT:
A panhead which is capable of appropriately operating an image pickup device by a simple mechanism thereof. A fixed unit is set on a base of a camera-attached panhead. A pan rotation unit is supported on the pan fixed unit, for rotation within a plane parallel with the upper surface of the pan fixed unit. Two parallel-link mechanisms connect between a camera unit and the pan rotation unit and move the camera unit to a predetermined position in which a direction of an optical axis of the image pickup device is able to be maintained, depending on the use mode of the camera unit.
