PCM Tripod Head

Cambo's PCM is the manual controlled tripod head from the PCH family tree. It can tilt, swing, rotate, as separated movements, or use it like a ballhead with 3-D possibilities. The movements can be individually locked in any position of the head. The bottom as well as the top can rotate 360*. After levelling, the top rotation can be used for panoramic shooting.

The PCM features a quick release top and includes a 1/4" plate. Cambo's QR plate includes a safety lock that prevents your camera to turn loose on the mount.

If you have a camera with an ARCA style mount, you can use it directly on the PCM. This includes the Cambo ACTUS and Cambo WRS-series.
  • PCM is a tripod head which features manual rotational movement around the X- and Y-Axis and double (top and bottom plate) manual rotation around the Z-axis. This enables the PCH to be used as a normal ball head for fast levelling adjustment as well as a precision for fine levelling adjustments.

Adjusting the PCM movements
It is possible to fine tune the PCM controls to your own preference. The manual movements are possible to adjust. Note that fine tuning the PCM controls is a precise task and should be performed with great care.
