River Studios is pleased to introduce PixOrb HD, a motorized head
for panoramic and spherical photography.
PixOrb HDs automated, battery-operated
features enable efficient image capture in time sensitive shooting
situations, remote locations and tight quarters including car interiors
and airplane cockpits.
Smooth and quiet operation is suitable
for natural settings and wildlife photography. PixOrb HD can also be
connected to a computer for extensive customization of its motion control
routines.
PixOrb HD has additional applications
in special effects photography such as high dynamic range imaging,
time-lapse photography, and film and video repeatable motion control
Multiple Uses:
automatic two-axis indexing and image capturing for creating
spherical and cylindrical panoramas and two-axis time-lapse movies.
