Admiral KS-8
This is Ken-Lab's most powerful unit to date. The Admiral has been developed to provide Ken-Lab's simplified stabilization for camera equipment in the 8 to 12 pound range. Through the use of heavy metal tungsten wheels the effect of two KS-6 units is achieved in a standard KS-6 housing, with no increase in running power required.
