Abstract: A rotation stabilization device has an optical device, in particular a camera, and a position regulation apparatus for the optical device. The optical device is, in a support frame, pivotable about at least one axis of rotation which runs through the center of gravity of the optical device. For stabilization of the optical device, there are situated, on the at least one axis of rotation and between an electric motor and the optical device, a torque converter which stabilizes the optical device in, or moves the optical device into, a desired angular position without abrupt motion.
