HD Air Studio Cyclo Lite– a 1-axis stabilized head for Steadicam, handheld & grip applications
Cyclo Lite is a new lightweight, high-precision 1-axis stabilized head from HD Air Studio, built for users who need speed, balance, and rock-solid horizon control.
Cyclo Lite offers an 18 kg payload, and the head features a compact, low-profile design for use in tight spaces and long handheld shooting days.
