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.

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)
