Nail focus every time with Hālo

Hālo is the first affordable, accurate, intuitive system that can automatically track and keep your subject in focus using your existing lens and camera. When you operate alone, Hālo automatically keeps your subject in focus so you can concentrate on framing. For focus pullers, Halo Explorer gives you fexible focusing assistants while you stay in complete control. Advanced technology, compact size and weight, and a ordability mean Hālo is great for enthusiasts, owner/operators, and production professionals alike.

Automated focus tracking for your
camera and lens

When combined with Atlas smart motors, Hālo transforms into a powerful focus tracking system that keeps your subject automatically in focus at all times. As the subject moves, Halo measures the distance in sub-inch accuracy and the lens motor adjusts focus to keep your subject razor sharp. Hālo updates continuously and in real-time so it’s also great for wide open lenses and long focal lengths. Hālo is ideal for tricky shots that combine camera movement (like dollying) with subject movement.

Advanced focus assist gives focus pullers more control

Automated focus tracking can be incredibly valuable, but operators still want manual control at any time. Halo delivers the ability to move between automated focus and manual focus seamlessly and without notice. For the first time you can combine automated focusing with manual focusing within the same shot using any camera and any lens including cinema lenses. You can also use this feature for push-button focus acquisition to quickly set up initial focus, or to measure distance in different parts of your scene to set up your focus marks in a fraction of the time. MissionControl is an invaluable tool that overlays distance and focus information on your compatible SmallHD monitor. Any operator or focus puller can use this for reference, focus assistance, or to actively adjust focus tracking.
