Manufacturing Professional Camera Supports for Film, Broadcast Video and Virtual sets.
The LAMBDA is a NODAL SWING HEAD ideally suited for 35MM film cameras fully equipped with long lenses, mattebox and extra large film magazines.
Providing a high level of operational flexibility, this Fluid Head can be easily fitted to a wide range of supports including tripods, dollies, cranes and camera cars. The mounting can be inverted in under-slung position for low line positioning and allow the camera to be moved all the way to the ground and provide for accurate images which normally cannot be obtained with other traditional supports.
The balance system is designed so that the camera may swing on its center of gravity and rotate 360° on its vertical axis. No springs or similar counter reaction elements are required to set the head in a fixed tilt position and fluid pan and tilt movements have the same identical feel. The lens focal distance can be kept constant by presetting the fore and aft horizontal sliding plate.
The LAMBDA employs the patented CARTONI fluid drag control system on both pan and tilt modes. In order to obtain the 3 RD AXIS rotation, the LAMBDA features the 3 rd Axis accessory comprising an additional fl uid drag system with 7 steps + "0".
A variety of accessories as the orientable extendable pan bar, the round steering wheel, the short pan handle, the 150mm bowl base, the counterweights and rods for nodal setting complete the equipment.
The MO-SYS LAMBDA motion control camera support head shares all the advantages and versatility of the regular CARTONI LAMBDA head. It features un-compromised, zero-backlash drive mechanics for precision, power and low maintenance.
The latest response to encoded support as needed in the VIRTUAL REALITY shooting. Strong, versatile, including all features of a standard CARTONI fluid action camera support head, the e-SENSOR features extremely high resolution direct sensing encoders in both pan and tilt, absolute positioning with no need to re-calibrate at start up, built-in electronic, simple cabling; a single cable supplies both power and data, with a range of up to 100m. CARTONI e-SENSOR is powered by MO-SYS (Motion Systems Technology Ltd) and is compatible with most 3D packages for real time camera/scene movement in virtual set and pre-visualization, it is the ideal solution for sports 3D graphic insertions plus it is compatible with all MO-SYS control systems as an input device. Connectors for lens encoders and other position sensors information are also possible to integrate to the e-SENSOR electronics, making it a very verstile contender on the virtual set.
Ideal for supporting ENG dockable camcorders or EFP cameras equipped with long focal lenses and top mounted viewfinders, the DELTA is manufactured with an extensive use of ultra-light magnesium alloy.
