The Tilta Boulder Camera Cart was designed to provide a rugged, portable workspace. Its highly modular construction and range of available accessories allow you to adapt it to any on-set scenario.

The cart assembles and disassembles quickly without tools and transforms into a rolling hard-shell case for easy transport between locations.

When not in use, the cart’s top and bottom trays combine to form a secure, hard-shell case, locking the components inside. An integrated handle and small built-in wheels transform the disassembled unit into a rolling case, making transport easy between locations and easy to load into smaller vehicles.

Built from durable aluminum, the Boulder offers multiple mounting options, including 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 threads with locating points, enabling full customization with optional accessories.

The base model includes:

  • Four wheels (two fixed and two rotating casters) for smooth mobility
  • Two handles for comfortable control
  • A wide range of optional accessories that let you expand the cart into a camera workstation, focus pulling station, DIT hub, or even a mobile workshop

For those looking for a ready-to-use setup, the Boulder Camera Cart Indie Kit builds on the base model with included upgrades:

  • Two support posts and a monitor mounting bracket featuring a quick-release plate compatible with most standard monitors
  • A NATO/Manfrotto-style sliding receiver that enables precise positioning of the monitor across the bar
  • Full tilt, pan, and instant 90° rotation Monitor Mount for seamless transitions between horizontal and vertical monitoring
  • A collapsible side table with IGT standard mount, providing extra workspace and the ability to swap in other IGT-compatible inserts

From serving as a focus-pulling command center to being a companion for outdoor adventures, the Tilta Boulder is your go-anywhere, do-anything solution—available as a flexible base model or a fully featured Indie Kit.
