Features
It is built tough and designed to last.
With over 20 customizable parameters, you can configure shooting profiles exactly the way you want them.
Without it, you’d have to make manual adjustments every time you changed parameters such as speed, aperture, ISO, etc.
Compatibility
The Pivot is compatible with modern mirrorless and dSLR cameras that have a wired shutter release.
You'll need a cable to connect your camera to the Pivot. These are inexpensive and widely available at local or online retailers. Simply search for:
2.5mm coiled shutter cable for your_camera
For example: 2.5mm coiled shutter cable for Sony a6300
One end of the cable is a 2.5mm jack that connects to the Pivot and the other fits your camera's wired shutter port.
The Pivot control app requires a smartphone or tablet that runs Android 4.4 or newer with a Bluetooth connection.
This is a recommended but optional item.
The Maestro can receive feedback from your camera through the camera's flash pc-sync port and automatically adjust several parameters.
If your camera does not have a flash PC sync port, you'll have to add one through a hot shoe adapter. They are inexpensive and widely available through local or online retailers.
You do not need to buy a cable, one is included with the Pivot.
The Pivot requires a DC power supply with the following specifications:
Voltage:12V-23V
Current: 3.5A-4A minimum sustained discharge
Connector: 5.5mm x 2.1mm male
Most laptop power adapters meet the above requirements or you can use the optional battery pack.
An optional 21V battery pack & charger can be ordered during checkout.
If you need a battery pack, order it when you buy your Pivot. Due to shipping restrictions we can not ship individual battery packs later.
A sturdy tripod is required with a standard 3/8-16 screw.
Supports tripods with a column diameter up to 5cm. To use it with wider tripods, leveling bases, etc you can purchase an optional 4cm riser.
