"Our key message for visitors to the Wildscreen Film Festival is that Camera Corps systems as can capture images from practically any location, above ground, underground or under water, in normal light, low light or infra-red, in practically any weather. Our low-noise high-precision remote control drives, including joystick-based gradual acceleration, make the total system ideal for unobtrusive wildlife programme production.

"We will be showing our latest Q3 fully controllable remote pan/tilt/zoom/focus head and the MeerCat ultra-compact fixed camera, both of which were introduced at the NAB Show in April and are now in production. They will be demonstrated as part of a complete remotely controlled system including ancillary equipment from our sister companies in the Vitec Videocom division."
