FLUID AND REPETITIVE 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. It is very powerful and enables work with heavy professional cameras. 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.

VERTICAL POSITION


The device works in a vertical position. It can handle cameras up to 7kg.
To work vertically or diagonally, the set has to be extended by additional accessories, enabling assembly in the desired position.

We recommend the following Slidekamera products:

  • INFINITY TRIPOD with 3/8" mount
  • ANGLE Adapter and ANGLE SUPPORT mounting plate with 1/4" and 3/8" screws for mounting the slider
  • ANGLE Adapter for mounting the camera
  • universal 3/8" screw for assembly the ANGLE Adapter and the tripod
  • DUAL SUPPORT with two universal brackets for mounting the slider on every tripod.

MONO HEAD

MONO HEAD fills the gap in the line of motion control products. It is precise remote head for rotating the camera in one axis.

MONO HEAD was designed to carry heavy, professional cameras. Rigid construction and precise drive make this device reliable and repeatable. MONO HEAD is perfect for every application, that requires precise movement: live action, timelapse, stop motion or VFX shots.

POWER SUPPLY

Besides of the included charger the X MOTOR 40 drive works with any DC 12 V power supply, such as:

  • Magnetic holder with BP-U battery plate
  • V-Mount adapter with D-TAP cable

POWER SUPPLY FAILURE

Camera safety is very important. The drive stops the cart in case of power failure, that protects the equipment from falling down.

BP-U adapter with magnetic holder

BP-U adapter with magnetic adapter can be used to mount:

  • BP-U battery (recommended battery BP-U60, 56Wh or more)
  • SLIDELINK Wi-Fi Adapter and other accessories.
Estimated BP-U60 battery life:
  • for horizontal track, from 4h to 20h
  • for vertical track, from 2h to 20h

NOTE: BP-U battery not included in the set.

CONTROLLER

The AION IQ Controller has many extended programs. VIDEO for live action, ANIMATION for stop-motion photography and the very popular TIMELAPSE.

The 1/4” socket in the base of the controller enables it to be mounted to the cart with a 8” or 11” VARIO ARM - Classic.

AION IQ

AION IQ Controller programs:

VIDEO:
  • Free Ride Mode - allows the user to control the speed of the slider using joystick and adjusting knobs.
  • Recording Mode - records movements of the slider in order to play it back later in Playback mode.
  • Playback Mode - plays back movements of the slider saved in Recording mode.
  • Video Loop Mode - during VideoLoop mode slider automatically turns back and starts moving in the opposite direction once it reaches the end of movement range.
ANIMATION: moves the camera on a programmed path during series of shots (drive can trigger the shutter by the cable connected to the camera).
TIMELAPSE: designed for interval shots synchronized with a very slow movement of the cart.

SLIDELINK™ Wi-Fi Adapter

The SLIDELINK Wi-Fi Adapter enables the remote control of the devices of the Slidekamera system via the SlideyePRO application (available for Android tablets) and Slidekamera drivers, equipped with Wi-Fi connection.

A single SLIDELINK Wi-Fi Adapter is sufficient for controlling the whole system, regardless of the number of devices. In order to increase the freedom of movement of the system it is possible to use a bigger number of adapters.
