The Tilt Head
The integral, low profile head is designed to
alter the lens angle +/-15º from horizontal
with only a minor shift of the camera’s c.g.
The most important use of the tilt head is in
normal operating. Instead of trimming even
two or three degrees for a shot by altering the
Archer

a perfectly vertical post and keep your sled in
dynamic balance.
With the Archer
2
, the operator determines
the proper length of sled, optimal monitor
viewing position, inertia, and lens height.
Then the operator adjusts the camera to
the nominal tilt angle for the shot.
Trim for headroom
Without the tilt head, much of the benefit of getting the sled into dynamic balance is wasted
when one alters the trim of the rig. For example, operators routinely trim their sleds for
headroom. This action puts the rig out of both static and dynamic balance.
