APPLICATIONS

PROFESSIONAL SHOOTING

Use with a S-mount (M12 lens) for situations where an ultra compact solution is required.  High resolution CS-mount varifocal lenses provide the flexibility to frame the perfect shot with out the expense of purchasing a zoom lens. Use a high quality C-Mount prime lens or attach your favorite SLR lens with an adapter. Use vintage glass like Bolex and Super-8. Pull focus, zoom and control iris settings for the perfect look.

DRONES / GIMBALS

The Ribcage AIR features special mounting points for secure seating on 3DR’s Solo but can be mounted on the same aerial platforms and gimbals as the standard GoPro whilst using our M12 lenses to reduce weight. Customize your field of view by choosing your own lens, no need to lower the resolution for more zoom!

VR

Fully compatible with Entaniya and many other high resolution fisheye lenses for full spherical capture with fewer cameras. Get a full 360° capture with as few as 2 cameras or 360° x 280° with one camera!  Ideal compact  VR180 stereoscopic camera solution.

THE FLEXIBILITY OF C-MOUNT

Fit a wide range of high resolution C-Mount lenses including prime, varifocal and zoom lenses.  Another benefit is that C-Mount is so common that adapters exist for almost every lens type you can think of – e.g. Nikon, Canon, Pentax, etc.

Now your GoPro Camera really can GoProFESSIONAL!
