ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for supporting a camera and moving the camera in a plurality of scanning directions. A support sleeve is detachably affixed to a support surface and is telescopically engaged with a support shaft that rotates within the support sleeve and slides upwardly and downwardly with respect to the support sleeve. A compression spring is provided to resiliently support the support shaft within the support sleeve to absorb vertical vibrations. An extending arm having a rear shaft portion and a front arm portion is supported in a bearing block for axial rotation of the rear shaft portion. The bearing block is affixed to the top end of the support shaft so that the block rotates with the shaft to impart a swinging motion to the extending arm. A tilting shaft is vertically aligned with respect to the support shaft and is connected for adjustable rotation at the end of the front arm portion of the extending arm. A camera is detachably mounted at the bottom end of the tilting shaft. A counter-balance spring is disposed within the support shaft and associated tension adjust apparatus is affixed to the end of the rear shaft portion of the extending arm to adjust the tension of the counter-balance spring and to thereby apply an adjustable downward force to the end of the rear shaft portion of the extending arm to counter-balance the weight of the attached camera.
