NEW Equipment!
Heden YMER-3: The Wireless follow focus we’ve all be waiting for. The Hedén Ymer-3 is a high-end wireless control system for Focus / Iris / Zoom that has been designed to be dependable. As you would expect from a Hedén product the motors and the motor control is very precise and direct with no lag.
The system has unique functions that make the system very easy to use, like:
– LenSaver manual calibration, a much safer and easier way of manually calibrating.
– Manual override that makes it possible for an operator to take manual control of the lens without removing the motor or recalibrating the system.
– Lens mapping on focus, makes lens changes quick and easy.
– Mounting points on the transmitter makes it easy to attach other devices.
The motor control is very accurate and with the new Hedén motors M26VE-LX and LM30 the response and top speed is extremely fast, all in a small package and with high torque.
Lensmapping on focus and initially in feet.
The wireless transmission uses a very robust automatic frequency hopping technology without the need to set, and change channels manually. The range is up to 500 meters /1600 feet, line of sight.
The YMER-3 Is available to rent for $45/day at member rates.
