BW05 Camera Stabilization with Kinetic Remote
The BeeWorks 5 is a camera stabilization and control system that allows you to get dynamic and steady shots from new perspectives. It will create cinematic shots whether it is handheld, mounted to vehicles, or controlled remotely.
The BeeWorks 5 is lightweight, sturdy, easy-to-use, and excels at producing smooth handheld shots, even while navigating stairs or difficult terrain. It is not only a great handheld stabilizer, though…
With the BeeWorks Kinetic Remote system, the BeeWorks 5 can be controlled remotely while attached to its stand. The stand makes it possible to mount the camera in unique locations, like the hood of a car, on a table or window, or on a lighting stand. Imagine filming a meal from the center of the table while remotely framing the shot.
The Kinetic Remote captures your movements and transmits that information to the BeeWorks 5, which matches your movements in real-time. While the technology is cutting edge, the effect is old school —You feel like you are holding the camera in your hands, even when the camera is across the room.
Machining our stabilizer entirely from aerospace-grade aluminum, as opposed to the more typical carbon fiber tube construction, afforded us more design freedom. We asked ourselves first what it should look like and how it should function, then designed a system to meet that aesthetic and functionality. As a result, the BeeWorks 5 is lighter and more compact than competing stabilizers. It also packs into a single carry-on case, including the stand and Kinetic Remote.
Balancing the BeeWorks 5 is easy. The most common adjustment, made when changing lenses, is as simple as a button press. Adjustable components are colored silver and require no tools. While filming our demo reel, we found that lens changes typically take 10-15 seconds to balance, while camera changes take 30-60 seconds.
