OlyCelotti Pan Tilt Camera Mount, Motorized Tripod Head with Remote Control and Mobile Phone Clip for DSLR Cameras, Smartphones, Tripod (Limited Weight Under 2.2lb)…

Product same as advertised.

It's slow but the remote works great when you are using a camera with live view.

It works well with an iPad Air or Iphone but I doubt it could handle an SLR with a large lens. The battery seems to last well, and the remote is easy to use. The motion is reasonably smooth. However, this is an expensive piece of equipment. I have to say that something is rattling inside the one I have - a loose screw or broken gear? - who knows. This should have been picked up at the QA inspection - there’s a sticker suggesting one happened. So I’m not vouching for it’s build quality.

Keep in mind that it makes the camera, phone, whatever sit higher(any accessory head will). I'm using it under a Canon XA40 for live stream. every time you move the head, there is a little bit of wiggle as it settles. I have multiple cameras, so it's not a problem as this one can be set while another one is live.

I have a security camera on mine and it's been in the Arizona sun and heat for 2 years with no problems. The only drawback is the remote only sends the signal around 60 feet with no obstructions between you and the unit. Other brands go 300+ feet.

I've owned another pan/tilt head for a number of years, but it's heavy and quite complicated to set up, so I wanted to try this one. Ease of setup is great. It has its own remote that I tested out to 150 feet without any loss of signal. The limitation is that it will only handle cameras up to 1 kg, which eliminates my Canon DSLRs that weigh in above 1.5 kg with my favorite lenses. So I tested the unit with a point-and-shoot Lumix that weighs 0.85 kg. Even with the lighter camera, I noticed some hesitation and jerks when tilting up at the lowest speed. In fact, when I first mounted the camera it wouldn't tilt up at all on the lowest speed until I moved the camera back as far as it would go with the QR plate. The QR plate doesn't snap in. You have to mount it and then tighten the screw at the side. This type of mount always concerns me—what if I don't get it tight enough? Will I accidentally drop my camera? Another improvement I would appreciate is the ability to push a button and have the head continue to pan or tilt at the set speed without having to hold the button on the remote all the time. It would also be nice if diagonal pan-tilts could be done, but you're limited to pan or tilt. Pans were, for the most part, quite smooth with an occasional jerk when starting, and there's a good variety of speeds available for both pan and tilt. I'm giving 3 stars. The unit is basically functional with some limitations and a little jerkiness on slow-speed tilt up.

The first thing I did was take off the Arca Swiss plate. I am at least 20 Arca Swiss mounts and All of them operate buttery smooth with the feeling of the finest precision machinery. When I twisted this knob it was gritty and grindy and I had a bad feeling that this was not going to be the kind of precision equipment I wanted. But still that was just the mount. As I unboxed it I saw that it was made of plastic which in and of itself isn’t a bad thing but I could see stress lines all throughout the plastic mold which is also not a good sign. The flashings and seems indicate that there was a less care they needed in creating the mold. I’m sure you wouldn’t want the entire thing to be metal because of the weight, although that would add some stability, the tripod itself should be the main stabilizing system. The overall plastic just didn’t seem like the high-quality polymers that other gear and firearms are made of. I know it’s not scientific but when something feels cheap it just feels cheap and there’s no way around that. But OK let’s go ahead and mount this up and put it to the test. The actual base is a large plastic disk with visible white printing on it that indicate the degree markers. I guess white is the most visible but it’s still looked a little bit cheap. They were printed on but there was no indentations or laser engraving so when that printing rubs off which invariably will happen, you will have no indication where the markings used to be. It’s pretty self-explanatory and easy to use in the remote supports 20 different channels so in theory you can control 20 of these with the single remote. Each movement gives you eight speeds from one to eight and you get a pan and tilt motion. No sideways rotation with this. This is OK as pan and tilt are easily the most used motions on a tripod. Some of the motions were smooth but there were occasional hiccups and jerking us in the motion. Now the manual said those would smooth out with time and I have no reason to doubt that. My other issue is that it’s quite loud and I don’t think you’re going to be able to use this with video. I enclose the short video so you can hear how loud the motor is. It is also not regular so it would make it hard to cancel out with noise cancellation. I intend to use this extensively over the weekend and if the motions smooth out and I no longer get hiccups I will come back and change this review. A huge missed opportunity here would be digital feedback of which direction the head is at. Both the base and the remote have a digital indicator but it doesn’t tell you the number of degrees in which either the pan or the tilt motion is set. That would’ve been phenomenal. You could set the tripod up at zero and then you could know exactly when you reached 45° or 90° or 39° etc. You can only use one motion at a time so you will have no diagonal motion. And there is no programming options like rotate 20° and then tilt 10° and hold. That would be amazing. Since they have handheld intervalometers that are already programmable I would not think these features would be difficult to program in at a very minimal cost. On a simpler note there is no continuous hold button either. You have to keep the button held down if you want to continue the motion. It would’ve been nice to be able to do a one touch motion thing. So there is a lot of potential to this item but most of it is not realized but given the low cost of this thing, it’s excusable to lack some of these features, but it’s kind of a shame as they are 90% they are already. There is one feature above all that is going to limit the use of this thing and that is it’s 1 kg weight limit. I’m not sure I have anything but a tiny little Pentax Z camera that weighs less than the limit on this thing. I have lenses alone that exceed the weight limit of 1 kg. None of my DSLR bodies are going to work here says that limits me to a mirrorless with a very small lens. The noise really illuminates the possibility of video for this so when you look at it as only being used for still photography, this has one function above all else: it will allow you to sit somewhere else besides the camera location where there is a field monitor, and you can look at what the camera is seeing and make remote adjustments to your field of view. This is a pretty limited used case but I suppose it’s a boone to people who experience it. I did have one case where I had to raise the cameras so much higher than I could get to it, and this would’ve been pretty handy in that particular instance. It would’ve save me from going to have to find a ladder and having a precarious photo session. Also a pet peeve of mine is when equipment like this it doesn’t come with a case. Is it a simple matter to make a custom nylon and foam case or a hard shell case for expensive equipment that is oddly shaped. It is very difficult for the end-user to acquire something for pieces like this but it would’ve been an easy thing for the manufacturer to make and I would’ve gladly paid a few more dollars to have a protective case for this thing. I’ve had to spend way too much money on customized foam inserts and pick and pluck foam inside of expensive hard shell cases. This is a notice to all manufacturers to start including cases with your gear. My final recommendation is that if this actually fits your use case, it seems to be a worthwhile buy at that price point. If you are getting in the video and looking for motorized motions to add effects to your filming, this is not going to be the thing for you.

Very happy with it.

I use this product during my videoing of commercial products. To be able to set a suitable pan and tilt especially whilst the camera is moving on a slider is particularly effective. I am so glad l found this item. It is well worth the money.

So i bought this electronic gimbal as it was one of the cheapest on amazon that could cope with a 1kg weight. So my current setup is a canon m50 with viltrox ef lense adapter and a tamron 75 - 300 telephoto macro lense. my kit weighs a total of 1040 grams which is slightly over the max weight. so to the nitty gritty... the gimbal stuggles at slow speeds with its tilt action the gimbal cannot move the camera upward at the lowest speed however if the gimbal is attached to a tripod and is set flat it can tilt perfectly well at speed 2 and above. At the moment i have the gimbal set at an angle of around 15 - 20 degrees downward at this angle it can only move the lense upward at speed 3 and above which works okay (just) for my usage but for a full range of uses including panning shots the gimbal is diffinately not suited. The gimbal is prone to a fair bit of judder but that could be the mix of off centre weight and too light weight a tripod. That said a heavier. Other issues with this gimbal is that its movement is not particularly smooth however this could be to do with the weight of the kit its lugging around plus my lense weighs quite a bit and the weight cannot be centralised as the hot shoe only allows for a total setback of 70mm. it would also be impossible to do very slow small panning shots as the camera moves at its slowest speed of 1.7 degrees per second. It might be a different story when using a phone or a much smaller lense. i will update this review in the fullness of time

The item is good is brilliant working fine
