The recent recipient of a Scientific and Engineering Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the ARRI TRINITY 2 camera stabilizer has proven to be a popular and well-acclaimed high-end option for cinematographers ever since the system was first introduced back in 2022.

However, things are about to kick up a notch as ARRI has announced a new Software Update Package (SUP 4.0) for the TRINITY 2 and the TRINITY 2 Pan Axis Module that is set to add new user modes, horizontal post panning, zoom sync, and other improvements.
