The HiView-25 Aerial Photography System is a complete package ready to take photos.

A brand new lightweight high-level photography system that allows remotely controlled photography from heights of 25ft.

It is Portable, Cost-effective and an ideal Business Start-up Opportunity.

The operation of the HiView systems is simplicity itself, with 3 easy steps:

  • Attach the head unit and console to the mast and connect them with the cable
  • Clip the safety belt onto the mast and push the sections up
  • Compose and take the photo

The whole system is ready to take photos from 25ft in under 5mins !

 

The HiView 25 is designed as a single person operated portable handheld mast for high-level photography and video applications. 

At only 10kg with camera and controller, the system if portable enough to be moved to many photography positions quickly, with ease.

The total retracted height is 1.85M, making the HiView 25 easily manoeuvrable, and it can easily be transported in the car, on the train or on an aircraft.

   
The HiView 25 uses a 10 Mega pixel camera, controlled from specially designed console mounted to the mast, with an integrated Archos DVR.

 

The console controls the cameras zoom and shutter functionality via a custom designed USB interface, which eliminates the need for a laptop.

The images from the camera are viewed on the monitor, allowing precise composition.

 

 

 

A 22x zoom video version is also available for video / CCTV applications and the system can even be used to take 360-degree virtual tours.

The GRP mast is pushed up in sections and locked with non-slip torsional locking collars. It is secured to the ground by placing a foot on the rotating footplate and there is a lumber harness for extra safety.

The unique head unit is light enough to ensure the stability of the mast at full extension.

 

 

An elevated camera at 25ft (7.6M) will give enough height for an excellent high-level photo, without the need for guy ropes.


The rapid deployment and portability means you can take images in a fraction of the time that traditional tripod mounted systems take.

The HiView 25 is priced on a budget, making it ideal for a business start-up, to add to your other photographic services or to complement your existing aerial photography equipment.

There are hundreds of applications for aerial photography, but the handheld portability of the HiView 25 means the scope has just increased.
