Just a very short message about the RamperPro. We are very happy to announce that the development of the RamperPro is finished. We have finished the electronics and the software has reached a stable version 1.0. Production will start in January and we will ship the first units in February. Pre order now if you want to be sure that you can get a unit from the first production run!

The history of the ElysiaVisuals RamperPro time lapse controller started in 2011. The general consensus at that time was that it is not possible to make good sunset time lapse movie with a Nikon camera. These movies are made by ramping the exposure time of the camera. Its getting darker but the exposure is made longer in small steps which results day to night transitions. The same is true the other way around for sun rises. Classic ramping solutions worked by using bulb ramping. The camera is set to bulb and the bulb time is accurately controlled by the time lapse controller. This gives a limited use because you cannot use fast shutter speeds or bulb times faster than approximately 0.3 seconds. Classic bulb ramping cannot be done with a Nikon because you cannot achieve any desired bulb speeds because Nikon uses discrete steps in bulb.

Here the RamperPro steps in. You can use any desired shutter speed or any desired bulb speed to create ramping sequences. The camera is automatically controlled via USB by the controller. That makes it possible to automatically shift the ISO during your shoot. The RamperPro can therefore easily ramp over 20 stops from bright day light to stars. We like to talk about exposure ramping and not about bulb ramping because you are not limited to bulb mode when you use the RamperPro.

You can use a lot of equipment when you are making timelapse movies with motion control. We have a lot of this equipment available in our online store. But what to do when you want to connect your devices? For example how can you connect an MX2, MX3 to an eMotimo? We had the same questions when we implemented the integration between our (soon) upcoming exposure ramper with the MX3 and TB3.
