A PLATFORM OF ITS OWN
The core of stabilization.
Every decision in the Core follows the same brief: hold the picture steady where the platform moves fast, shakes hard and gets wet.
A closed IP65 body. Five axes. Ethernet control. A payload range built around the cameras and lenses those productions actually carry.
5 AXIS IP65 SEALED 30x BROADCAST ZOOM 600mm CINE ZOOM 300km/h SPEED
Sealed
– against the weather.
A closed IP65 housing instead of an open head. Rain, spray and dust on a crane, a camera car or a boat do not end the shooting day. Where competitors cover up and wait, the Core keeps rolling.
Five axes
– not three.
Two more axes than the open heads in its class. On fast vehicles and on platforms with high-frequency movement that difference shows up in the picture, not just in the data sheet.
Remote – wherever you are.
Ethernet-based control over long cable runs, straightforward to integrate into modern IP production networks. The operator sits where the job needs them, not where the cable ends.
