Tilting my camere using DC motors, Torque 5kg-cm

Hi Guys,

I need your help.
I have a 1.2lbs camera and I want to tilt x by 45deg.

Can the motor hold it there in place while the power is turn off?
e.g I turn on the power then when it gets to about 45 deg then turn it off
to stay there. If it can't be done then what is the motor I need to get the job done.

I am thinking with the bi-directional controller I can do smooth up and down tilt
and pause the camera at a 45% angle.

[m]==|__x__| to [m]==/__x__/


Basically, I want to do smooth Up and down tilting like this.

Thanks shortbus.
I guess that's the best approach instead of creating one from scratch.

You know if those servos are noisy? I looked into some video in youtube
and I find them to be so noisy. Maybe depends on the servo specs.
