Advanced motion tracking systems
Macro and Micro filming
Miniature Cameras and Infrared technology
MACRO & MICRO FILMING

Our macro/micro facility - designed to achieve higher, vibration free magnifications of up to x 50. It's also designed to work either horizontally or vertically.
We can use micro Nikkor and Leitz Photar lenses with excellent results or for higher magnifications we use Nikon CF Plan objectives with longer working distances (160TL)
A special feature of the bench is the motorised control of all camera movements (X Y + Z axes, plus rotation).
The profiles for these can be precisely adjusted for ramping, mid-shot variations etc. and can be reloaded for repeats as necessary.
If you'd like more information, please contact Geoff on 07887 778922 or contact us at mail@ibexfilms.co.uk
ACTION & MINIATURE CAMERAS
can show creatures not easily seen and our "snorkel rig" does it without disturbing them. Take a look at what they see - in the wild and under studio conditions

CAMERA MOTION
MOTION TRACKING UNITS
lightweight aluminium alloy rail
1.5 to 6 metre lengths available
suitable for both DSLR and full weight cameras
2 types of drive motor available
TYPE 1 DIRECT DRIVE FOR FAST REAL TIME TRACKS
optional joystick for analog speed control
remote radio control of the unit
remote operation of the camera utility over a wireless link



TYPE 2 STEPPER MOTOR DRIVE FOR
timelapse
controlled movement
jerk free start
accurate repeatable camera moves
laptop controllable via dedicated software (through USB link)
profiles designed on the laptop can be stored in the motor controller (up to 8 or optionally 16 separate proflies can be stored
multiple stepper motors can be controlled simultaneously
(each needs its own controller)
PC control offers accurate adjustment of:
jerk free start characteristics
rate of acceleration
target speed
directional number of repeats
graphical representation of profile
selectable units - degrees, millimetres and steps
easy removal of the stepper motor drive from the track rail means it can also be used as a stand alone unit for rotary timelapse (pan or tilt)
