Overview
The Vello FreeWave Orbit is a programmable, motorized pan head that offers smooth 360° motion to capture images for photo stitching of panoramas, virtual tours or product photography. Set degree angles, number of shots, panning speeds and direction for a full automated shooting experience in the 360° Panorama or Moving modes. A bright LCD screen allows you to take control of the Orbits’ settings and provides you with run-time information. Or wirelessly control the Orbit from the remote up to 100′ (30 m) away and a 2.4 GHz signal. Capture a series of photos from 5°–360°, and stitch together high-resolution panoramas of wild landscapes or city views. Take pictures and stitch them into a virtual tour to immerse yourself in a natural or urban area. A product stage can be attached to display items such as jewelry or mobile electronics, and shoot different perspectives or add a moving, rotating view for your auction or retail website. Mount your camera to the 1/4″-20 stud, and your setup can be affixed to most tripods with the 3/8″-16 or 1/4″-20 mounting options on the bottom. Four included shutter release cables enable connection and compatibility with most camera brands. The Vello Orbit is small, compact, and lightweight at just 2.5 lb., allowing you to take it with you when you travel, and it’s powered by an EN-EL3e rechargeable battery which offers plenty of rotations in a single use.
Features
Programmable Settings
The settings can be adjusted and allow you to control degree angles, number of shots, panning speeds, and direction.
Moving Mode
If you want to shoot a panorama less than 360°, for example 180°, use the Moving Mode. It lets you specify the panoramic angle and number of shots.
Mounting Options
You can mount your camera to the 1/4"-20 stud on top of the Orbit and attach the rig to most tripods via the 3/8"-16 threaded socket on the bottom. A 1/4"-20 reducer bushing is included to maximize compatibility with most tripods.
Rechargeable Battery
Worried about the battery running down before you complete your work? The Orbit uses a rechargeable EN-EL3e which lasts approximately 500 rotations, even at the fastest panning speed.
Padded Case
A padded case keeps the Orbit and all of its accessories protected from the elements, and with the internal mesh pocket you can store additional batteries or other small tools.
