Accesorios y configuración recomendados para el sistema Tiffen M2 Volt gimbal
Lo que encontró el hilo
- Useful additions to the M2 Volt include a side-adjustable camera plate, camera-specific mounting plates, Volt button extension, replacement Volt encoder, replacement Volt power cable, low-mode inverting bracket, Cinelevel, 3-pin 12/24 V to 2-pin 12 V adapter cable, dummy gold-mount plate with 4-pin XLR 12 V input, gimbal rain cover, gimbal balancing kit, low-mode docking collar, cable covers, and Tiffen spare parts such as cables and motor belts.
- The third battery plate from the M1 is also recommended for the M2, because the third battery can be repositioned for better weight distribution.
- The Volt gimbal is asymmetrical due to motor placement on one side and fails the 180-degree pan balance test: a lens balanced in one direction will not hold level after a 180-degree pan because the motors sit on one side only.
- The motors can electronically compensate for the asymmetry, but most operators prefer mechanical balancing using a gimbal balancing kit or stainless steel shims to achieve level horizon without relying on electronic correction.
Depende de
- Mechanical vs. electronic balancing preference depends on operator workflow and desired motor load.
