ARRI premieres Trinity 2 and Artemis 2 in Las Vegas

Redesigned down to the smallest detail, ARRI has unveiled the second generation of its Trinity and Artemis stabilizers at NAB 2022. They incorporate improvements to camera movement, connectivity, power management, user interface, balance options and product longevity.

A quick and easy upgrade transforms the purely mechanical Artemis 2 into the hybrid Trinity 2, which adds electronic stabilization for an even wider range of movements and angles.

Designed and built in Germany, the new generation ARRI stabilization system allows versatile, creative and perfectly stable camera movements.

For over 20 years, the original Artemis has been a reliable tool, trusted by the industry. Now, the Artemis 2 continues that success story and expands it with new features and an easy upgrade path to Trinity 2.

Between them, these two devices cover all filming applications and requirements, from feature films and television series to commercials and live broadcasts.

Note, on the other hand, that around the 80% new components of the second generation system are shared by Trinity 2 and Artemis 2, thus demonstrating ARRI's modular approach.

Wide compatibility is assured thanks to the use of the ARRI SAM cards, designed with precision, that allow cameras from different manufacturers to be safely and quickly mounted on the stabilizers. The SAM standard allows for quick, tool-free camera switching from the Trinity 2 or Artemis 2 to a tripod or ARRI stabilized remote heads.

He battery system second generation has been completely redesigned. A new modular battery hanger facilitates the most flexible, efficient and reliable power management ever seen in a camera stabilizer system. Users can choose batteries from any manufacturer, anywhere in the world, and whatever their choice, they will experience intelligently regulated high-capacity 12V and 24V power delivery. It's even possible to mix 12V and 24V batteries in any combination, using B-Mount, Gold Mount or V-Mount, with energy efficiency remaining stable at an industry-leading 95%.

In addition to the standard center post, now available two new pole lengths for Trinity 2 and Artemis 2, as well as both first-generation stabilizers. The longer Super pole allows for more extreme camera positions and angles, either higher or further away from the operator's body. The Shorty Post is suitable for fast, agile work or where space is limited, and will be especially useful with the compact Artemis 2.

New movements

Both ARRI and its technology partner FoMa Systems have relied on operator feedback to set a new standard for body-mounted stabilization with Trinity 2.

New camera movements are possible, including 360 degree rotation on the axis of the objective. Expanded LBUS connectivity enables the use of controllers designed for ARRI stabilized remote heads, opening up modern, digitally interconnected workflows.

a new Master Grip Trinity LBUS-based allows fingertip control of key functions, while the super-fast processor of the new touchscreen remote control enables autonomous system startup and on-the-fly adjustments. Additional accessory interfaces and 12G video connectivity increase rigging options and monitoring capabilities for the future.
