Founded in 2010, Tilta has always been committed to providing high-quality photography and cinematography equipment.

As an ambitious start-up, we have expanded our product line from accessory kits for DSLRsA digital single-lens reflex camera (digital SLR or DSLR) is a digital camera that combines the optics and the mechanisms of a single-lens reflex (SLR) camera with a digital imaging sensor. The reflex design scheme is the primary difference between a DSLR and other digital cameras. In the reflex design, light travels through the lens and then to a mirror that alternates to send the image to either the viewfinder or the image sensor. The viewfinder of a DSLR presents an image that will not differ substantially from what is captured by the camera's sensor but presents it as a direct optical view through the lens, rather than being captured by the camera's image sensor and displayed by a digital screen. DSLR is often (wrongly) used to describe cameras that are Micro Four Thirds or Bridge Camera  - just because they look similar. This can bee seen when cameras are offered for sale.    [rdp-wiki-embed url="http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/DSLR" toc_show='0′ edit_show='0′ infobox_show='1′] More to now fully supporting industry-leading cinema cameras. Through this process, Tilta has evolved from a manufacturer to an integrated solution provider, excelling in wireless lens control, camera cages, gimbalIn its purest form, a gimbal is a pivoted support that permits the rotation of an object about an axis. In photography terms a gimbal is a device that allows you to capture stabilized, smooth footage from your camera or phone camera while moving. The two most common types of stabilization are 3-axis and 2-axis. 3-axis stabilizers counteract all three motions: up/down (yaw), left/right (pitch), and forward/backward (roll). 3-axis is the preferred type for professionals who want to eliminate camera shake as much as possible. 2-axis stabilizers only compensate for vertical motion which can be good enough if you’re not doing any panning or tilting movements on a tripod. Phone gimbals are now relatively cheap - examples. More support systems, shock-absorbing car-mounts, etc.

Based in Shenzhen, widely known as China’s Silicon Valley, Tilta was born with a global scale in mind. Shortly after our first flag was planted in North America, Tilta Inc., quickly started to see impressive results. Our US Headquarters prides itself in being one of the go-to film production resources for Hollywood and Independent filmmakers.

Our work with the ASC Clubhouse has brought us many opportunities to collaborate with local high-end production teams in the US. As a result of this partnership, we are able to get an inside look behind the scenes of large scale productions, gain insight into different sectors of the entertainment industry, and build upon our foundation to always improve our products and support the needs of working professionals.

At the global level, our collaborations with distinguished cinematographers have allowed us to refine our products with their experiences and suggestions in mind. We hope that our small steps can lead to large leaps forward for the entire industry.

After years of tireless work, Tilta’s electronic control accessories broke into the Hollywood market in 2016. In the same year, Tilta Inc. was founded and its Los Angeles showroom opened in April 2017.

2020 was a year unlike any other. Many parts of our industry have changed, but Tilta has continued to push forward and support the needs of our film community as they confront new challenges brought on by the pandemic. With a steady release of new products, Tilta was able to help users do more with less and create high-end visuals with smaller crews in order to stay within Covid production restrictions. Whether it’s the Hydra Alien car mounting system and customizable RED Komodo accessories kit, or the DJI RS 2 ecosystem, every new release from Tilta sparks the users’ imagination, leading to endless creativity and possibility.

Among them, the Tilta Float Handheld GimbalIn its purest form, a gimbal is a pivoted support that permits the rotation of an object about an axis.

Phone gimbals are now relatively cheap - examples. More Support System gives users the same flexibility and movement as the far more expensive traditional Steadicam systems, previously only seen on big-budget sets.

The Hydra Alien charted a revolutionary path by offering an accessible car-mounting solution for consumer-grade mirrorlessTechnically speaking most DSLR, point-and-shoot and smartphone cameras are mirrorless, in that they don’t have internal mirrors. However, mirrorless camera is a specific term for a camera where the sensor is directly exposed to light and the photographer has a preview of the potential image at all times to view on an electronic viewfinder. For example the Olympus and Panasonic micro four-thirds cameras are mirrorless. More cameras which leveled the playing field for every filmmaker.

Tilta has never stopped its pursuit of constant improvement, innovative design, and high-quality products.

We are still on the road.
