GSS Cinema Gimbals
Be there. Get the shot.
Stable at 1000mm+. Always locked. Wherever the story takes you.
You know the shot you need. A GSS cinema gimbal gets you there — stable at 1000mm+, responsive in any conditions, ready to mount on anything that moves.
Helicopters, aircraft, boats, 4x4s, cable-cams, Russian arms, camera cars. If it moves and can carry the weight, you can hang a GSS from it. And get the shot.
Where operators take it.
Natural History
Wildlife cinematography is a patience game — until it isn’t. You can wait hours for a moment that lasts two seconds. A GSS gimbal is always on, always locked. When the tiger pounces, when the whale breaches, when the cheetah bolts — you’re already there.
Natural history operators have found more ways to use GSS systems than we ever imagined — and we see them find new angles every day.
Action & Extreme Sports
Covering snowboarders, ski jumpers, motorcycle racers, mountain climbers, or camel races means going where the athletes go — at the speeds they go. GSS cinema gimbals deliver stable, cinematic imagery from helicopter, fixed-wing, boat, and ground-based platforms in conditions that would ground most systems.
The result is coverage that puts your audience inside the action, not above it.
The GSS Cinema series.
Four platforms scaled to the demands of your production. All 5-axis, all open-architecture, all backed by the same engineering team.
GSS Cinema Mini 512 — Light and fast
The most compact and lightweight platform in the Cinema series. Built for deployments where agility matters most — cable-cams, small aircraft, tight vehicle mounts. When the production needs to move fast and travel light, this is the platform.
GSS Cinema Mini 512EX — Small platform, long reach
Our most popular Cinema platform. The 512EX’s extended form factor is built to carry the longest cinema lenses available — including the 50–1000mm zoom — while keeping the compact footprint and weight profile that make the Mini series so deployable. The sweet spot for most productions.
GSS Cinema Pro 516 — Versatile and capable
A step up in payload capacity and flexibility. The Cinema Pro 516 handles a broad range of cinema cameras and lenses, deploys across virtually any vehicle type, and travels well. Compact enough for excess baggage, capable enough for any production.
GSS Cinema Pro+ 520 — Maximum capability
The flagship Cinema platform. The Pro+ 520 supports the largest cinema cameras and the full range of cinema lenses, with interchangeable payload configurations and the powerful motors to match. When the production demands the absolute best, this is the platform.
“Image stability isn’t easy at extreme distances. It is even harder flying at 300 knots as we have done with GSS’s C520. I can definitively say there isn’t a more stable or robust gimbal on the market.”
— Peter Degerfeldt, Owner, Blue Sky
“Rugged, reliable and high-performance, our C516s were flawless during three days of filming on Discovery Channel’s Deadliest Catch in Dutch Harbor, AK — filming on helicopter, truck and dune buggy in sub-zero conditions.”
— Dave Arnold, Airborne Director of Photography, Deadliest Catch (Seasons 1–13)
“We wanted a system that was future proof and constantly evolving… It was clear to me that the guys at GSS were building the best and most advanced systems in the world.”
— Todd Jones, Co-Founder, Teton Gravity Research
“Compact is key! The C516 allows me to travel, rig, and operate the system solo with ease and confidence, anywhere around the world. It has changed the way I approach and quote jobs.”
— Bas Vandenbranden, Director of Photography, Aerial Cine Group
Cinema
Feature Film & Commercial Production
When the budget demands perfection and the schedule doesn’t allow for a reshoot, you trust your platform. Wide camera and lens compatibility, field-swappable configurations, and a support team that knows what a shooting day costs.
