A counterweight balancing system for filming cranes that are mounted on a vehicle and used to film moving images. The filming crane (1) has a rotating center (4) with a counterweight system (2), on one side, and a filming camera (3), on the other side, which oscillate as if on a balance. A pantograph mechanism enables the counterweight system (2) to be maintained in relation to the ground, in the event of any ascending or descending movement of an arm, holding the filming camera (3), as a result of the system being equipped with articulated points (6, 7, 8 and 9), fixed shafts (10 and 11) and shafts (9 and 9′) movable in relation to a central shaft of the crane (5), thereby forming the pantograph mechanism.
