Description:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION 
       [0001]    With current problems to stabilize the image in video shots while is in movement. A cameraman that has to walk, run and then raises or lowers camera to follow image being filmed. He must follow the objectives while avoiding obstacles in his path or around him. 
         [0002]    This invention is designed to absorb the movement of balances not wished. From video camera movements while filming to support and improve the quality of the shots. Also this equipment has two motors that are manually controlling the movements for pan and tilt, helping this way to easily focus the point wished for the shooting, it is possible to be adapted to most of video cameras. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0003]    The stabilizers of balance and oscillation of cameras are mechanisms that are at first based of a point balance which this hangs to an arm. In one extreme of the roll axis is the camera, and in the other the counterbalances. Commonly they are known like STEADYCAMS. Some have been published in the registry of patents of the USA by No ref: 2007215; 4474439; 5243370; 5742859; 5963749; 6149112; 7390131. All these mechanisms serve to isolate to the camera of the movement no wished of the camera man, but they have problems, or in montage of the camera; in the fast assembled of the mechanism; in extra weight; in the size of the apparatus; in the lack of manual control of movement; or in the reach that can be obtained, being thus:
       1. The need exists to build an apparatus that helps to solve the stability problem taking into account the complicated thing which they can be the uncontrolled movements generated by a camera man.   2. The need of built an apparatus for control the movement manually of the camera, for pan an tilt sense.   3. The need exists to create an apparatus in order to reach heights or distances using one extension.       
 
       SUMMARY OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS 
       [0007]    This invention this based on the principle of the pendulum, in where the video camera hangs in a mechanism connected in an end of the pendulum, while to the other end of the balance center are equipped horizontal axes with counterbalances located in the ends of the axes, also it is possible to be inverted easily putting it offset them of pendulum and the camera in the superior part. 
         [0008]    The balance center this mounted on a drum of bearings to help the horizontal movement, this drum of bearings this connected by a system of cross to the support arm that handles the camera man.
