The 3-axis Second Shooter Bundle from Kessler Crane is a motion control system that lets you create dynamic and repeatable movements with your Kessler slider. Included in the bundle are the key components required to construct a 3-axis system: the Second Shooter Controller, Slider Motor, and Pan & Tilt Head. Compact in size and intuitive to operate, the Second Shooter system makes it easy to capture repeatable motion control for live-action, time-lapse, or stop-motion applications. Compared to stepper motor systems, Second Shooter receives feedback communication from digitally encoded motors when determining motor positions to ensure precise control. The system is quick to set up in the field, making is suitable for run-and-gun and one-man-band shooters as well as larger production houses.
Note: A Kessler slider is required to use this system.
The brain of the Second Shooter system, the Kessler Crane Second Shooter Controller lets you connect the system's slider, pan, and tilt axes via Cat5 cables and control them remotely.
The Kessler Crane Second Shooter Slider Motor is a pulley system motor for the Kessler Crane CineSlider, Philip Bloom Slider, and Stealth Slider. It features a quick-change pulley system on the bottom that eliminates the need for additional motors. You can choose between fast, normal, and slow motor speeds by arranging the proper combination of motor pulleys. A small-size extra pulley is included.
A Second Shooter Controller is required to operate the Slider Motor. A slider-specific Kessler Crane motor mount is required to attach the Slider Motor to a slider. The compatible mounts are the CineSlider/Stealth Motor Mount, Pocket Dolly Motor Mount, Shuttle Pod Motor Mount, Shuttle Pod Mini Motor Mount, and Philip Bloom Pocket Dolly Motor Mount.
The SS2005 Pan & Tilt Head for Second Shooter from Kessler Crane is a base pan & tilt head which enables you to add axes to your one-axis slider system and can be used with a variety of other Kessler tripod accessories. The head mounts via 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 holes on its bottom surface and is controlled by the Second Shooter Controller (sold separately) over the two included Cat5e cables.
