edelkrone Pan PRO and SliderPLUS Bundle

Add quiet, motorized panning control to your camera rig with the Pan Module from edelkrone The Pan Module is a 360° motorized panning system controllable remotely via an iOS/Android app that supports camera rigs up to 30 lb. It pairs well with the edelkrone JibONE, DollyPLUS, DollyPLUS PRO, and SliderPLUS to create smooth pans, even when controlling it by hand. At under 2 lb, its compact form and durable aluminum construction make it perfect for shooting in the field, and its ultra-quiet motor fits right into a studio shoot.

A bright OLED screen on the Pan Module provides settings and status information, such as when configuring time-lapse and speed modes. The motor allows you to pan up to 18°/s. The Pan Module features a 3/8"-16 thread on the bottom that allows it to be mounted onto sliders, tripods, dollies, and various other supports, and it provides a 3/8"-16 mounting screw on top for a variety of camera mounts, cages, and fluid heads. It is powered using a separately available battery using the included LP-E6 battery mount, and it features power-saving and automatic power-off modes, so you can operate for a longer duration. One LP-E6 battery can power the unit for up to six hours or shoot up to 50,000 still photos in time-lapse mode on a single charge. It can also be powered using a separately available AC/DC power adapter.

The Pan Module also features a 2.1mm 9 VDC barrel output to power additional accessories. The control app supports iOS 11 and later and Android 5 and later, and it connects using Bluetooth. To utilize the pairing feature with other edelkrone devices, the Pan Module features a direct 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi signal.

The edelkrone SliderPLUS v5 PRO Long is designed with movable rails that travel during a slide to give you extra travel distance while keeping the slider compact. When used on the ground or other surface, it has a travel length of 1.3' and supports up to 40 lb. Mounted on a tripod, it provides a travel length of 2.6' with up to 20 lb loads supported, meaning you can work with heavy camera rigs. The movable design also works for dolly shots, because since the rails move along with the carriage, they won't get in the shot when you dolly in and out.

The SliderPLUS v5 PRO Long is a manual ball bearing slider, but it supports the optional Slide Module v3 attachment for motion control, and other edelkrone motorized add-ons can be incorporated for fully synchronized multi-axis motion control operated via a single iOS/Android app. When paired with the Slide Module v3, the SliderPLUS v5 PRO Long can be mounted on a tripod at an incline of up to 22.5° with up to 5.5 lb loads.

The slider carriage features a retractable 3/8"-16 mounting screw so it doesn't scratch up your bag or anything else during transport. On the bottom, the slider offers a 3/8"-16 thread for more robust tripod mounting. For tripod-mounted use, edelkrone suggests that the space between the tripod legs be 47" or more.

Other features include lockable fold-out legs, an instant-lock button on the slider carriage so you can safely move the slider from place to place, and magnetic belt clips. The belt clips of the included belts simply push in onto the slider carriage for efficient use.

The SliderPLUS v5 PRO Long is made of aluminum and stainless steel components, steel ball bearings, and temperature-treated aluminum rods. Some of the parts are made from a single block of aluminum to ensure a longer life span.

The edelkrone Slide Module v3 is an add-on attachment for all SliderPLUS sliders. It adds motorized capability to the slider, allowing for motion control from a companion iOS/Android app. You can set up stable motorized slides or easily program motion time-lapse and stop motion videos. Also, when the Slide Module v3 is attached to the slider, it can be synced up to other edelkrone motion control devices (such as the HeadPLUS pan and tilt device) to allow for synchronized multi-axis motion control from the same app.

New features include improved wireless connection and a longer range, improved power management, a physical power button, an information screen that provides instant feedback, and quieter operation than ever before. The Slide Module v3 uses a quiet step motor driving technology that combines precise step motor positioning ability with ultraquiet operation.

While it does support app and optional IR remote control, the Slide Module v3 also allows you to manually adjust the positions and program the motions of your SliderPLUS (and optional HeadPLUS) by hand. This allows for a more efficient and intuitive workflow in many situations.

The Slide Module v3 can be operated by your choice of batteries or a power adapter, both options sold separately. For battery power, it requires optional Canon or Sony battery brackets and two LP-E6 or two L-series batteries. Or you can get the AC/DC Adapter for Slide Module. One of these options is required. With two LP-E6 batteries, the Slide Module v3 runs for approximately two hours and shoots about 12,000 photos in time-lapse mode.

Compatible devices include the HeadONE single, HeadONE dual, HeadPLUS, and HeadPLUS PRO. When the Slide Module v3 is synced with your SliderPLUS and HeadPLUS, you can perform automatic target tracking and live target switching. Add a Laser Module to the HeadPLUS, and you can teach the position of any stationary target to the system instantly by just aiming at the target and pressing OK. The camera will instantly frame and focus on the target. Used with the SliderPLUS and HeadPLUS or HeadONE, the Slide Module v3 also lets you achieve sequencing by setting up multiple poses to create comprehensive camera motion with adjustable speed and looping.
