Manios Digital & Film, one of the country's leading distributors of high quality products for professional filmmakers, video producers and newsgathering organizations, will showcase a variety of groundbreaking camera stabilization systems from German manufacturer Orbiter at NAB 2014 in Las Vegas. Among them will be the Orbiter 270 3.0 Stadium, a compact camera seat designed for sports stadiums and similar venues, and Orbiter 500 3.0 Spaceshooter, a new, modular, mobile camera seat designed for capturing rocket launches and other events requiring rock solid stabilization and high-speed tracking.
Orbiter has developed exceptional products that help camera operators capture great shots while working in difficult locations with ease and comfort, says Manios Digital & Film president Steven Manios. We are extremely excited to introduce U.S. broadcasters and producers to these fantastic tools.
Manios Digital & Film will be showing Orbiter products at NAB Stand C9539.
Used in sports venues worldwide, Orbiter 270 3.0 Stadium makes it possible for camera operators to work in tightly constricted spaces in stadiums and other venues while minimizing impact on sightlines. Camera and operator occupy an extremely low working position, eliminating the dead angle for nearby spectators. The system facilitates 270 panning; smooth, steady and noiseless operation; and accommodates all tripod heads.
Based on Orbiter's innovative Superflat camera seat, the new Orbiter 500 3.0 Sharpshooter is designed for the tracking, analysis and recording of rockets and other flying objects. The system consists of a seat and a telescopic or fixed column that provides camera support. It is capable of 360 panning and 90 tilting while delivering steady shots, steady friction and noiseless operation. Camera and seat move independently along the same axis. The system accommodates all heads and can be used with a single camera, or multiple cameras.
