Built-in Display: The addition of a built-in display with a 4-button control system gives users command over basic tuning and adjustments without the need for additional devices.
Redesigned Structure: A redesigned structure improves performance and adds features to increase the MōVI Pro’s capabilities.
Increased Torque: New, lightweight direct-drive brushless motors provide twice the pan torque of the first generation MōVI.
Internal Wiring: Updated wiring is now internally routed and strain relieved, preventing damage to cables and enhancing reliability in a variety of weather conditions.
Aerial Ready: Go from handheld to aerial in less than 60 seconds; with dual GPS antennas, light- weight construction, high torque motors, and an integrated FIZ driver, the MōVI PRO is unmatched in aerial performance.
Camera Rail: The addition of dovetails, revised camera mounts, easier top mounting, and a wide-body design results in an ultra versatile, lightweight camera rail that can easily be mounted and removed.
Rugged System: Designed as a precision instrument with the toughness to withstand every environment from the set to the outdoors.
Intelligent Batteries: Brand new MōVI Pro Battery Packs come with built-in power indicators, intelligent battery management systems, and a refined new design.
Hot Swapping: One handed battery swaps and hot swapping are now possible through a redesigned battery system which is built to keep the MōVI Pro shooting.
Camera and Accessory Power: Using the combined power of two 22.2V batteries, the MōVI Pro can power itself, the camera, and more for over an hour.
REDLink Command Protocol: Integrated REDLink Command Protocol grants users full control over RED EPIC and SCARLET camera adjustments, even when the user is hundreds of feet away from the mounted camera.
FIZ Control: Utilizing the world’s smallest fully integrated 3-axis FIZ controller, the MōVI Pro reduces shooting weight and FIZ setup time with all industry standard motors.
MōVI Pro App: Using new Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology users can connect to their MōVI Pro instantly from within the Android or iOS app to update, tune, adjust, and monitor the MōVI Pro.
Instant Booting: Advances in sensor initialization allow ultra fast boot times, maximizing productiv- ity and minimizing downtime.
Autotuning: MōVI Pro is the first gimbal that requires no user tuning of filters or stiffness; its high performance tuning algorithms achieve optimum filters and stiffness in ~10 seconds.
Stability Improvements: Refined software, new calibration techniques, and highly precise sensors create a camera movement system that can endure the most challenging of shots while maintaining perfectly smooth footage.
Introduction
We took everything we've learned from the first MōVI and then embarked on a year-long journey to create the best MōVI ever. Every detail has been scrutinized. Every gram of additional weight justified. In the end, we've created MōVI Pro – the world’s most versatile, adaptable, and reliable camera movement system.
Designed and built with the goal of creating the world’s most versatile camera movement system, the MōVI Pro will revolutionize and democratize the creation of professional motion picture content. Using active and inertial stabilization the MōVI Pro allows filmmakers precise, intuitive, and creative control of the camera, and its new features grant even more possibilities to create world-class content quickly and easily.
