edelkrone Cine Master HeadPLUS Essentials Kit

The edelkrone Cine Master HeadPLUS Essentials Kit put together by B&H takes motorized control to new heights with the HeadPLUS v3 pan and tilt head and JibPLUS v1 motion control jib arm. Together, the components allow you to create cinematic movements manually or via app control.

Cinematic Motion with Powerful Motor

The JibPLUS ensures ultra-smooth, cinematic motion for video professionals seeking dynamic shots that captivate and engage. The included Pan Module allows for simultaneous vertical and horizontal motions, opening the door to the most compelling and interesting shots. The Pan Module is powered by the main motor via a cable, eliminating the need for a separate battery.

Bigger and Better

The JibPLUS is double the length of the JibONE and provides larger camera movements while retaining portability, allowing you to capture larger subjects and expanding your options for bigger, more dramatic scenes.

App and Manual Control

Manual control provides added speed and ease to your workflow for a more intuitive process.

Counterweight Leverage

The JibPLUS includes 5.5 and 2.2 lb counterweights, and it can be extended backward to increase the counterweight leverage, allowing you to balance more load with less counterbalance weight.

Point Tracking

Point tracking shots create CGI-like tracking effects in real life. With the Point Tracking feature, you can lock the camera head onto any point while the body moves.

Create Orbital Flows

Create any type and size of closed-loop shape by using the presets on the edelkrone app and make JibPLUS follow these paths automatically. Combining Orbital Flow with Point Tracking delivers impressive shots that will elevate your productions. You can switch between tracking points while JibPLUS is in motion.

Compatibility

Tripod X features motorized height adjustment, making compatibility with the JibPLUS a breeze. Adding the edelkrone Tripod Wheels allows you to effortlessly position the entire setup anywhere in the studio and set it up at any height with ease.

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.
