Fluid and Repetative Motion

The right engine, with a precise mechanical gearbox result in a very versatile device. It allows not only a very fluid camera live action motion, but also works great for timelapse or stop-motion photography. Every movement can be programmed and repeated many times with the same precision. To avoid camera shake during shutter release, there is a shutter release cable in the set, compatible with the camera used for stop-motion or timelapse photography. The device works in a vertical position. It can handle cameras up to 4kg.Camera safety is very important. The drive stops the cart in case of power failure that protects the equipement from falling down.
