Abstract
The present invention relates to a camera system having six axes of rotation for moving a camera. The camera system includes a camera robot and a tilt head for receiving and holding a camera, typically a television camera. The camera robot has an arm having five axes of rotation; the tilt head is fastened to the arm by means of a flange. The tilt head itself has only one axis of rotation which is configured for tilting the camera about this axis of rotation. The control of the tilt head is particularly simple with only one axis of rotation at the tilt head, particularly since a panning of the tilt head can take place through one of the axes of rotation on the arm and the tilt head can thus also be freely moved into different positions.
