FREEFLY MōVI Pro ARRI Start/Stop Cable

The FREEFLY MōVI Pro ARRI Start/Stop Cable is a crucial accessory designed to enable remote record start/stop functionality directly from the Freefly MōVI Pro gimbal stabilizer to compatible ARRI cinema cameras. This cable streamlines workflow by allowing the gimbal operator or a dedicated technician to initiate and cease recording without physically touching the camera, ensuring fluid movements and efficient operation on set.

In professional cinematography, especially with gimbals, precise control over camera functions is paramount. The MōVI Pro ARRI Start/Stop Cable eliminates the need for a separate camera assistant to manually press the record button on the camera, which can introduce vibrations or disrupt a perfectly balanced gimbal.

Key features and benefits of this specialized cable include:

• Remote Record Control: Provides the capability to remotely start and stop recording on connected ARRI cameras directly from the MōVI Pro’s control system, typically via the MōVI Controller, MIMIC, or a configured button on the MōVI Pro itself.
• ARRI Camera Compatibility: Specifically engineered to work with popular ARRI cinema cameras such as the ARRI ALEXA Mini, ALEXA Mini LF, and AMIRA. It features the correct connector (typically a 3-pin Fischer connector) on the camera end to interface with ARRI’s EXT or accessory ports.
• MōVI Pro Integration: Connects to a dedicated communication port on the Freefly MōVI Pro gimbal (often a 4-pin JST GH connector or similar standard Freefly data port). This ensures seamless electrical and communication compatibility with the MōVI’s internal system.
• Optimized Length and Flexibility: Designed with an appropriate length for gimbal use, minimizing excess slack that could interfere with gimbal movement or balance. The cable is also flexible enough to allow for smooth camera pan/tilt/roll without resistance.
• Durable Construction: Built with high-quality wiring and robust connectors to withstand the rigors of professional film sets, including repeated bending, handling, and environmental exposure. This ensures long-term reliability and consistent performance.
• Streamlined Workflow: Significantly enhances efficiency on set by allowing a single operator or a small team to manage both gimbal movement and camera recording, reducing setup time and the potential for missed takes.

The FREEFLY MōVI Pro ARRI Start/Stop Cable is an indispensable MōVI Pro accessory for any professional using ARRI cinema cameras on their Freefly gimbal. It’s a crucial camera control solution that enables seamless, precise, and efficient operation, allowing cinematographers to capture flawless footage with their Freefly MōVI system.
