Exclusive edelkrone features

Automatic Target Tracking & Live Target Switching

HeadPLUS v2 has the ability to learn three different stationary targets. When transitioning between targets, HeadPLUS v2 keeps each target in frame and in focus even when operating on SliderPLUS, SliderONE, JibONE, and DollyONE and DollyPLUS.

You can make a live, smooth transition among any of the three preset targets by selecting your desired target through the App.

Sequencer Feature

With Sequencer feature, you can chain multiple poses one after another to create complex camera motion. Transition speed between each pose is independently adjustable. You can also make the system loop back and forth in any given order.

Can be Hand-controlled

Instead of relying on a remote control, manually adjust the pan & tilt angle of HeadPLUS v2 and program your camera motion with just your hands! This gives an unprecedented speed to your workflow and makes the entire process much more intuitive.

HeadPLUS v2 10 lb (4.5 kg)

HeadPLUS v2 PRO 20 lb (9 kg)

Connects wirelessly to edelkrone Sliders, Jibs & Dollies

When HeadPLUS v2 is combined with a slider, jib or dolly, you can easily program 3-, or 4-axis camera motions. You can record never-before-seen, amazing motion time-lapses and visual effects shots with any combination you choose. The devices pair instantly in the background while using the same App or Controller to control all devices together.

Sliders Motorized sliders with their unique design approach and portability: SliderPLUS and SliderONE

Jibs Motorized jibs that do it all and capture vertical, horizontal and diagonal camera motion in seconds: JibONE

Dollies Motorized rail-less dollies to create linear or curved camera motions: DollyONE and DollyPLUS

Super easy time-lapse programming

Setting up a motion time-lapse is the easiest with edelkrone App. In your time-lapse videos, you can have a simple transition between two keyposes or you can convert a recorded complex camera motion into a time-lapse with a single button. You can use edelkrone’s unique Dynamic Interval and Dynamic Step Size Technologies to introduce never-before-seen effects to your time-lapses which bend the speed of time and speed of camera motion independently of each other.

Single App to control all

edelkrone App cleverly scans the available devices in its surroundings and pairs with them automatically, giving you a single screen to control all devices together.

The interface is extremely simple.

Use the controls on the top part of the App screen to set the pose of your camera. Press and hold on any of the keypose buttons to record that pose. Use the same button to recall that pose. It’s that simple. Press 2 keyposes to put the system in loop between both keyposes.

You can adjust the speed and acceleration of the transition between keyposes. Or, you can easily create time-lapse videos by using the same keyposes.

App Details.pdf

The app shows you this control screen when there is only one motorised HeadPLUS discovered around. The App gives you this 3 axis control screen including the focus adjustment.

When you combine your HeadPLUS with a slider the App gives you this 4 axis control screen including the focus adjustment. Notice the Target Mode button also becomes available at the bottom for smart target tracking.

When you combine your HeadPLUS with a Dolly, the App gives you this 5-axis control screen including the focus adjustment. Notice the Target Mode button also becomes available at the bottom for smart target tracking.

After you complete recording a motion, this is the screen which lets you replay the motion recorded. You can also convert it in to a time-lapse or stop-motion via this screen.

This is the time-lapse screen. First, enter your Record Time & Play Time and your FPS settings. Next, set the same shutter speed with your camera in the app & set the interval. Lastly, select the starting and ending keyposes. This way you will achieve a nice motion time-lapse video transitioning between both keyposes.

When you setup your time-lapse, instead of entering a static interval, you can enter a dynamic interval with the help of this graphic. So, you can have an alternating speed of time in your time-lapse video. This feature will not affect the speed of your camera motion. If you start a time-lapse while you are in Target Mode, you will be able to select targets.

When Ramping is on, you can alter the speed of your camera motion throughout your time-lapse video. This graphic helps you adjust the speed of your motion easily.

Perfect for stopmotion animation with Dragonframe

I bought the HeadPlus V2 for my son's stopmotion animation. It works perfectly with the Link Adapater and DragonFrame 5.0. It was very easy to pair with a SlideOne V2 via the mobile app. The only drawback is the overall weight of the head plus slider which means I needed to purchase a more robust tripod to mount everything for shooting stopmotion.
