| Compact Precision Speed Plus |
| The COMPACT PRECISION
SPEED PLUS upgrades the Moviecam Compact camera by adding accessory
compatibility, a precision speed control with an expanded speed range,
and smart displays. This new innovation
expands the Compact's world of compatibility to include many industry
standard synchronizers, speed controls, and other accessories. The
COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS features three Fischer 11-pin Arri standard
connectors and three Fischer 3-pin Arri standard connectors that provide
the proper interface for 12 volt accessories and 24 volt accessories
respectively. All of the connectors are fully wired and have self
resetting circuit protection. The COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS provides
complete compatibility with popular devices such as the Cinematography
Electronics Film Video Synchronizing Control, Intervalometer, Precision
Speed Control 2 and Syncromark Laser System while maintaining
compatibility to Moviecam controls like the Moviespeed or Syncobox.
Bulky controls are no longer the only option for controlling the
Moviecam Compact camera.
A precision speed control with an expanded speed range of 2 through 50.999 frames per second (fps) is built into the COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS. Speeds are easily selectable in 0.001 fps increments with the push button digit switches. All of the nearly 50,000 different crystal speeds are available in both forward or reverse. The phase shift button slightly increases the camera's filming speed, and is active at all speed settings while the camera is running. In addition to the expanded speed range, a single frame feature is included. The single frame exposure time is a usable 1/4 of a second. We have included an out of sync beeper with adjustable volume that is audible when the camera is not running at the selected speed. The volume level of the beeper is adjusted with two push buttons and is automatically saved. Incorporated into the COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS are two intelligent alphanumeric readouts that display camera speed, camera status conditions and film count. The tachometer displays the precise camera speed while the camera is running. This display also provides simple readable information or a graphical depiction instead of obscure codes to indicate the status of the camera. The footage/meter counter calculates and displays the amount of film used, along with an "F" or "M" for feet or meters. The reset push button clears both the feet/meter count and the camera's removable digital readout. The stylish, low profile shape of the COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS attaches to the right side contour of the camera in place of the camera switch/display panel and adds less than 3/4 of an inch to the width of the camera. It does not interfere with existing video taps, handles or magazines and is electrically compatible with both the original analog and the newer digital camera circuit boards. We have also relocated the camera power connector to make low point of view tilt-up shots possible. All required parts and full installation instructions are included with each unit. Installation is also available at Cinematography Electronics. |
| Lens Light |
|
The optional Cinematography Electronics Lens Light provides the precise amount of illumination where you need it. The Lens Light consists of a long flexible gooseneck, a twist lock lever, and a bright Halogen bulb. The intensity of the lens light is adjusted with the brightness control knob on the COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS. When attached to the dedicated connector, the flexible gooseneck permits the light to be positioned above the camera movement, the lens marking scale, or other working areas. With its impressive list of features and its classic shape, the COMPACT PRECISION SPEED PLUS is designed to simplify your daily filming requirements. Now, this fine camera can flex its muscles. |
