The present invention relates to a levelling unit for cameras or sensors, comprising a base, a tilting table that is tiltable with respect to the base, and two wedge rings arranged between said base and said tilting table, each wedge ring having two end faces oriented to one another in a wedge-like manner. Said tilting table is connected to said base via a cardan joint such that a relative rotation of said tilting table with respect to said base is prevented. Said two wedge rings are formed by a first wedge ring rotatably supported on said base and by a second wedge ring rotatably supported on said tilting table, wherein said second wedge ring is also rotatable with respect to said first wedge ring. A first drive is provided for said first wedge ring and a second drive is provided for said second wedge ring. According to the invention it is provided that said first drive is attached to said base and said second drive is attached to said tilting table, wherein no drive acting between said first wedge ring and said second wedge ring is provided.
