Now - that is my theory of professional photography - do something you cannot do with amateur equipment!

That is one of the most amazing body of work I think I have ever seen!  :o

I watched most of that video with my jaw dropped and mouth open.

Johannes, thank you for posting that clip.

Speaking of tripods - this one is of our customer Wolfgang Riess Studios in Garching-
I would say this also qualifies for "ultimate Tripod"   :)

If you want one for yourself, just buy the robot and attach the camera:

I don't see three legs, isn't it more of an 'ultimate monopod'

that's what I was thinking sort of. with hightech everyone can take a sharp well exposed picture nowadays. but for stuff like that you no hobby photographer is going to take business away from real pros.

such a cool company and video that's ultimate work period.
