Element Technica has brought in the new Technica 3D series, a collection of three new camera rigs designed to bring a new level of precision, speed and simplification to stereoscopic 3D motion picture production.
Technica 3D camera rigs provides3D systems that are lighter and more cost-effective to bring 3D acquisition down to the simplicity of traditional 2D production.
It can be arranged into both beam-splitter and parallel camera platforms and are scaled to fit popular cameras from the tiny SI-2K Mini to a full-size RED ONE, even with zoom lenses. Camera and lens controls are neatly imbedded. It holds pairs of cameras and lenses in precise alignment to achieve realistic stereoscopic images. They are manufactured in a configuration of machined aluminum for optimum rigidity.

True, the Element Techinica 3d beam-splitter rig is a nice rig, but also a very expensive 3D rig. When it came time to produce our short 3D film, however, we went with the 3D Film Factory’s Rig. It’s a good beam-splitter – and it’s cheap… It worked out very well.
