3D Aerials Shots - Only from Nettmann Systems

Street Dancer" Stereographer,Max Penner, just finished shooting 3D aerials in London using the COMPACT with the RED cameras set at 32 inches apart.

Anything less than that,such as the normal 5 inch interocular distance, does not allow you to get the 3D effect above 1000 Feet.

Our COMPACT system and my Super G are the only aerials systems that can carry this unique Da-Vinci camera package from Helicopter Film Services.

Nettmann Systems Welcomes AerialFilm, NZ


AerialFilm New Zealand is the newest member of the Nettmann family.

AerialFilm NZ is based in the alpine resort and popular screen production base of Queenstown, a town where helicopters are a common form of transport amidst the stunning landscape.

The founders of AerialFilm NZ have spent thousands of hours originating media from helicopters across a wide range of genre including theatrical features, commercials, and documentary as well as high end corporate jobs. Some of these projects required a stabilised aerial camera system and to meet this demand on a case by case basis, the principals brought in a Super G or Stab C from LAX

During the filming of 10,000BC film pilot Fred North suggested AerialFilm acquire their own unit from Nettmann System International and following meetings with Nettmann the company decided to proceed with a Stab C Compact. The first month has seen the system used for three weeks on a car commercial with a 435 + Optimo 17-80 lens as well as on a corporate project using a Red One + Angeneux 25-250 lens.

AerialFilm have an exclusive arrangement for the Stab C Compact in Australasia. Prior to the AerialFilm offering, projects requiring a high end stabilised system were forced to import from the USA which increased costs significantly and meant the system was cost prohibitive for most projects other than high end TVCs and Features.

The system is based in Queenstown helicopter company; Glacier Southern Lakes, hangar and can be mounted on any Squirrel or A Star of the clients choice.

AerialFilm offer an experienced team of cinematographers, film pilots and technicians. In addition to the aerial work the company has been receiving a steady stream of enquiries for tracking vehicle and marine mount options.

Nettmann Stab-C, Stabilizes Any Payload


“Randy Greer Jr and Atlantic Cine Equipment proves that the Stab-C system can handle any payload including the LEKO 850 Watt HMI light.

The Stab-C, a long-time favorite of JPL for testing their Mars and Lunar descent vehicle programs, has now shown its multitasking capabilities to the movie industry. The Stab-C, like its brothers the Super G and the Stab-C Compact, can be used for stabilizing payloads for airborne, ground based and marine productions.”
