A video camera/camcorder or camera can be fixed into the top mounting section of the mast with a 360 degree automatic pan and tilt power head and an extra 15 degree tilt correction plate or ball adaptor head. Within our cable set we provide a variety of video cables that will connected to the camcorder and then to the laptop, Apple MAC or Canopus box which sits on a bespoke shelf with weatherproof cover.

Automatic Control

LANC control cables connected to the camcorder allows the record, zoom and focus functions of the camcorder to be operated and the pan and tilt head is controlled by its own remote device. The user can then see everything on his Laptop/MAC screen of what is going on through the camcorder and has complete control over it. This gives the operator the capability of live coding or simply capturing the footage to the hard drive.

We have a 3 metre telescopic lateral extender that extends out horizontally from the top of the mast. This optional extra enables you to take video footage directly above a scenario and have a complete birds eye view to better your sports performance analysis. For example over the top of a shooter, archer, jumper, a scrum, lineout or hooker throwing in, a goalkeeper, a player taking a kick, a bowler, batsman or wicket keeper etc etc. Utilising a variety of adaptors we can even mount two or more camcorders on top of the mast so separate scenarios, events and areas can be filmed at the same time for analysis.

Our Hi Cam system is robust and easy to operate and can be set up and running in under five minutes and be taken down in the same time frame. The Hi Cam comes in a weatherproof case and a weatherproof case is also provided for the accessories. You will also be able to fit your camcorder and laptop/mac into the accessory bag as well.
