This is the Axis360 modular motion control for cameras and it’s just smashed it’s funding goal on Kickstarter. Early Bird Shipping is set for 1st May 2014.
Axis360 is a motion control system that rotates and slides a camera. Axis360 is compact and light weight, sets up easily, and is extremely versatile. It moves at a wide range of speeds, fluidly or incrementally, and works with most DSLR, mirrorless, and cinema cameras. Axis360 is available in a variety of combinations to suit your needs.
You can start off with a basic kit (an affordable $395 through Kickstarter) and piece together a fully functioning 3-axis system over time. Here’s a breakdown of the various components of the Axis360 system and how they can be combined:
The Axis360 components are designed to work together in a variety of setups.
Ballhead - a super efficient, adjustable camera mount. It has two strong quick connect points and 1/4″-20 threads on both ends.
Tripod - a compact, strong, and light weight camera stand. Each leg has six adjustable positions and threaded rubber feet for fine tuning. A 1/4″-20 thread attaches to a camera, ballhead or motor.
Tilt Kit – a set of L shaped brackets and quick release clamps that enable Axis360 to tilt a camera with perfect balance.
Slider – an ultra smooth rail track and cart system. The cart rolls on eight urethane coated bearings and has adjustable drag. The aluminum rails break down into 16 inch segments. Outrigger legs enable setup on any terrain, and a center 3/8-16″ tripod mount allows height versatility. The slider moves smoothly by hand, or with a kevlar belt and pulley system that enables the 360 motor to drive the slider.
