edelkrone Slide Master Essentials Kit

The edelkrone Slide Master Essentials Kit put together by B&H helps create precise slider movements with intuitive control using the included HeadPLUS v3 pan and tilt head, SliderPLUS v6, and Vertical module. Together, the components allow you to create smooth horizontal or vertical tracking movements manually or via app control.

edelkrone SliderPLUS v6

Durable Design

The sturdy and innovative device, when used with the separately available Motor Module, allows full vertical operation of your slider even when employing heavy cameras and gear with a payload of up to 11.4 lb.

Attaches Under SliderPLUS v6 PRO

Vertical Module mounts under the SliderPLUS v6 easily and comes with an L-bracket to level your camera or head. (Requires separately available Motor Module, not for manual use).

Easily Counterbalance Your Equipment

Five constant-tension springs transform the SliderPLUS v6 into a virtually weightless system and enable smooth and reliable vertical operation. This versatility facilitates multiple approaches to your specific style of operation, including fly-over and fly-under modes.

Adjust Slide Angle with the Turn of a Knob

Vertical Module utilizes an axis knob that allows for quick angle adjustments on the go. Incline can be adjusted every 10° steps for both the tension wire box and L-bracket.

Time-Lapse and Stop-Motion Ready

Vertical Module enables SliderPLUS to capture time-lapses at any slide angle.

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.
