A rail system comprising:
- a guide rail;
- a camera slider displaceably mounted on said guide rail, said camera slider having a camera mounted thereon;
- and
- a carrier structure comprising a plurality of hingedly interconnected segments arranged along said guide rail, said segments being connected to and supporting said guide rail, said plurality of segments being connected together by elongated pivot pins, and each of said pivot pins having a longitudinal axis perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of said carrier structure such that said plurality of segments are rotatable relative to each other only within a single plane of said carrier structure;
- wherein the guide rail is flexible and each of the segments of the carrier structure is non-flexible.
