The technical lowdown

The eMotimo spectrum is a premier motion control pan and tilt head. Spectrum is a highly capable 4-axis motion controller for cinematography and photography.

Weight to Payload Ratio

Power to portability ratio? Strength to mass ratio? Spectrum ST4 is the strongest motion control unit for its size and weight.

Interview Ping-Pong Mode

Set up a single A-B continuous move to serve as your robotic second camera, or push it further by adding a focus module to keep your subject sharp during pushes and pulls. This mode is great for interviews. Set up one camera on spectrum to track your subject and use a second camera for close-ups. Add smooth dynamic movement to your interviews with almost no effort.

Complex Keyframes

When programming a shot on spectrum you can set up to 9 individual keyframes for your move. You set your start point and end point and can add up to 7 frames in between.

Durable – machined to last

Internal wires and heavy duty connectors are protected by the CNC-milled, aircraft-grade, aluminium chassis. spectrum ST4 is built to last. Pack spectrum ST4 with or without a carrying case.

Completely Repeatable (even at high speeds)

The spectrum ST4 is repeatable at low and high speeds. If the ability to shoot higher end VFX matters to you, then you are in the right place. Regardless of changing source voltage, or payload, ST4 never drifts while in shot like encoded DC motors. It doesn’t drift slow, and it doesn’t drift fast. It’s passes are the same, pass after pass, enabling you to push your craft further without any mid shot wiggle to correct in post.

Smooth built-in Ramp

For both live and programmed shots you can control your movements ramp. This means ultra-smooth starts and stops. Smooth ramp is what gives spectrum footage a natural feel. No more jerky unwanted hard stops.

Better Live Control

The spectrum ST4 is all about feel. Unlike its predecessors, and most other motion control on the market, the spectrum has outstanding live control through the remote. Because of this, we can live drive the head around with no jitters or unwanted movements that can show up with manual control. The spectrum ST4 is armed with 11 different motor move presets from turbo mode to quiet interview mode and everything in between.
