The Revolution motor is a single-frame and time lapse motor with a wide range of shutter speeds and intervals. Automatic shutoff is standard, as is delay-before-filming, and 10 Presets for storing favorite interval and exposure combinations.

The sync-capable version features all the time-lapse features and adds sync speeds from 1-25fps, all flicker-free. Automatic shutter parking is standard. A voltage-boost box allows sync filming from a standard 12V power supply.

"After shooting film and dealing with equipment challenges for more than 20 years, it is truly a blessing to have products so versatilee and dependable as those created by NCS Products.

I have been shooting on Oahu for several years now, and solely trust the Revolution. With tens of thousands of feet shot, the system run efficient, smooth, and quiet without missing a beat. The reliability saves me a great of time, money, and headaches. Now, when I go to Hawaii, I only take one system with no backup, and have a more successful and profitable shoot."

The Arri II model attaches easily to all Arri 2A, 2B and 2C cameras. The base plate is attached under the camera via the tripod mount and two motor mount screws.

The motor-pod attaches to the base plate and the motor plugs into the 1:1 inching knob.

The control box can be detached via a single thumbscrew from the top of the motor pod and used remotely with the included 6' curly cable.

The base plate is a solid two-pound hunk of aluminum with appropriate holes and cut-outs for accepting the Arri 2. It has 3/8" threaded holes underneath for tripod attachment. The cutout is for hand-holding.
