UK Freefly Movi Pro
The Freefly Movi Pro is an industry leading camera movement system that helps professional cinematographers get the most stable footage, whether in the air using an Alta, or on the ground. The Movi Pro is available in two different bundles depending on how you plan to use this camera stabilisation system.
Freefly Movi Pro
Freefly's new Movi Pro camera stabilization system is hailed as:
"The most advanced camera movement system ever created"
Here at Heliguy we tend to agree! The range of new features available on the Movi Pro make it an industry standard camera movement system, bettering Freefly's previously successfull systems, the Movi range.
Hot Swappable Batteries
The Movi Pro supports hot swappable batteries.
This means you can quickly and easily change batteries while on set without having to power anything down.
The hot swap system also works with all the available accessories for the Movi Pro, all from the same battery!
Every Movi Pro setup comes with two batteries and two chargers.
Unique Screen with Power Indicator
The Movi Pro has a built in screen on the back.
This screen is invaluable on shoots as it'll help give you a glance at the current status of your Movi Pro without having to stop filming.
In addition, it'll also let you fine tune the Movi Pro as you shoot.
This is a very powerful feature, giving you full control over the Movi Pro at all times.
It also takes away the need to have a mobile device or laptop nearby, as most tweaks to settings can be done directly on the Movi Pro itself.
Freefly Versatility
As usual with Freefly products, the Movi Pro is incredibly versatile.
It can be used in either upright or inverted mode and supports a range of different applications:
- Ring
- Skate
- Classic
- Aerial
- Tero
The range of different handles, shooting modes and positions available for the Movi Pro will help cinematographers capture the perfect shot every time without having to switch stabilizers.
Reliable and Resilient
The Movi Pro has also improved it's resilience.
Long shoots day after day, with huge amounts of movement, can take it's toll on a lot of stabilizers.
Not the Movi Pro however.
There's improved internal wiring to help protect against faults and completely enclosed systems that allow you to shoot whatever the weather.
The boot time has been reduced to less than two seconds to make sure you're always ready to go.
There's also a built in stand on the Movi Pro, meaning when you do need to stop shooting, you know your Movi won't fall over.
