Hi everyone,
I'm new to the forum (found a lot of usefull threads :) thanks!) and new to Pan/tilt motors.
I want to use a motor to control the yam and pitch angles of a camera. Something like this:

It needs to hold a camera with 600gr.
My problem is that I dont know what are good specifications and bad specifications, so I need some guide lines in what I need and what problems I will find.
Can you help me?

Hi,
It needs to hold a camera with 600gr.
Any of them should do then, the first one is probably the easiest one to use - the last one is overkill and have functions that you won't need.
My problem is that I dont know what are good specifications and bad specifications, so I need some guide lines in what I need and what problems I will find.
What exactly will you be using it for?
Are you aware of how to control the servos?

Thanks for your reply.
Im going to use it to move the camera according the orientation of a imu. My idea is to change the imu orientation and the camera moves to the new angle.
I never worked with this kind of mottors and I'm not aware of what I have to do (complete newbie :s ).
Sorry for my basic english.
