ARRI announced the ARTEMIS 2 Live, a compact and lightweight camera stabilizer optimized for live production such as sports and event coverage.
ARTEMIS 2 Live is the new ARRI entry point into the Camera Stabilization System (CSS) series. It is modular, lightweight, and upgradeable, allowing users to adapt their rig to different production demands and careers while maintaining the quality and reliability of ARRI engineering.
ARTEMIS 2 Live boasts a minimalist design that is focused on operational flexibility and ergonomics. The short posts give users more legroom, allowing them to keep up with the fast and unpredictable action of live production, even in tight spaces. The new lightweight monitor bracket is specially designed for live use. The base mount and monitor jockey support 7-inch monitors such as TRANSVV. The other bracket supports 5-inch “on-air” monitors, which are often used in live production rigs.
ARRI offers a number of Ready to Shoot sets for ARTEMIS 2 Live. These provide everything you need to integrate the stabilizer into a live production environment, including the option to easily and effectively pair ARTEMIS 2 Live with a Tiffen Volt gimbal.
