edelkrone Cine Action HeadPLUS Essentials Kit

The edelkrone Cine Action HeadPLUS Essentials Kit put together by B&H takes motorized control to new heights with the HeadPLUS v3 pan and tilt head and JibONE v3 motion control jib arm. Together, the components allow you to create cinematic movements manually or via app control.

Sweeping Cinematic Motion

Create drama in every shot with sweeping, cinematic moves. JibONE's ease of use doesn't require programming or complex shot design knowledge.

2-Axis Panning Motor

The included pan module offers a strong wireless connection and a long control range. It provides simultaneous horizontal and vertical moves to create smooth, unique shots.

Point Tracking Mode

With the app's Point Tracking feature, you can lock the camera head onto any point while the body moves to create CGI-like tracking effects in real life. Separate buttons for body motions allow you to trigger movements without worrying about head control. You can even switch tracking between points while JibONE is in motion.

Create Moves with edelkrone App

The edelkrone app is designed to seamlessly and wirelessly control all edelkrone devices from all iOS devices. It allows you to create any type and size of closed-loop shape by using the presets and making JibONE automatically follow your programmed paths.

Ultracompact Camera Jib

Constructed from CNC-machined aluminum, this ultracompact jib arm supports camera rigs up to 3.8 lb with a HeadONE unit installed.

Motorized and Manual Control

Create quiet, backlash-free motorized jib moves using your smartphone and the Bluetooth LE iOS and Android-compatible app, or simply operate the jib manually.

Versatile Power Options

The JibONE v3 includes a dual LP-E6 battery bracket that can power the arm and pan module for your shoot. Batteries are available separately.

Easy Balance with Counterweight

The JibONE v3 integrates a 5.5 lb counterweight on the end of its arm that extends backward and forward to increase or decrease the counterweight leverage, requiring less counterbalance weight.

Compatibility

Use the JibONE v3 with the separately available HeadONE, Pan PRO, HeadPLUS, or HeadPLUS PRO for even greater control and advanced moves with advanced tracking modes. It is also compatible with the Tripod X, a motorized self-moving, self-levelling tripod. Adding the edelkrone Tripod Wheels allows you to position the entire setup anywhere in the studio.

Sturdy Aluminum Design

The HeadPLUS v3 is made with CNC-machined aluminum and can hold an equipment load of up to 10 lb. It folds down flat to fit in a bag.

Easy Manual or Auto Operation

The head requires no calibration and operates smoothly and silently. You can either program it for automated motion or operate it manually.

Automatic Point Tracking

With the edelkrone exclusive Point Tracking Feature, you can lock on to any point in a 3D space while your camera is moving on edelkrone sliders, jibs, or dollies. With the separate buttons to control the body and head, you can trigger any body motion without worrying about the head control. The HeadPLUS v3 will act automatically to keep the point fixed in the frame, giving you amazing parallax results.

Teach a Point Easily

By using your camera, aim at the same point from two separate angles and set a point. The app will guide you step by step in a matter of seconds.

Head and Body Control Separated

Point Buttons allow the unit to lock on a target point, so once you trigger body motion by using any of the position buttons, the unit will adjust itself in real time, keeping the frame locked on the point.

No Image Processing

While your Slider/Jib/Dolly is in motion, point tracking mode uses real-time inverse kinematic calculations to adjust the pan, tilt, and focus of the HeadPLUS. This method is unique to edelkrone motion control systems, and since it uses no image processing, it is currently the best-performing and most reliable parallax video solution in the market.

Keypose Motion Programming

Keypose mode is the base controlling mode that works with all edelkrone devices and device groups. With this mode, you can save the current pose of the devices to a single button. By saving several poses on separate Keypose buttons, you can create smooth transitions between them.

Mounting

The HeadPLUS v3 can be installed on a tripod with a 3/8"-16 mount, and it comes with an L-bracket.

Smartphone App Control

Connect the edelkrone smartphone app via Bluetooth to control speed and record/repeat motions for time-lapses, visual effects, or other complex shots.

Object Tracking

You can purchase the optional Laser Module to pinpoint your subject, learn its distance, and track it when performing complex pan-and-tilt sliding shots.

Power

Power with the included AC/DC adapter, NP-F battery plates, or optional V-mount, Gold mount, and LP-E6 battery plates.
