The company was founded in 1990 by former engineers from ARRI headquarters in Munich. In 1993, P+S Technik entered the international market and has since received a renowned reputation as a competent and professional partner for solutions and products of the highest level in the cine world.
P+S Technik became generally known for its support of ARRIFLEX products and conversions. Nowadays the company offers a wide range of other products and is especially best known for the award winning P+S Technik image converter MINI35 and PRO35.
The image converters represent the fusion of classical 35mm film lenses and digital recording. With the development of these products P+S Technik influenced decisively the progress in the digital film.
In 2000 the SKATER® Mini was born and following the ideas of Director/DoP Sebastian Cramer a whole product family has been continuously developed. The fact, that the SKATER® delivers an optimal performance in the practice, has been proved in 2008: The SKATER® Mini and its family of products have been awarded with the Technical Achievement Award of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in Los Angeles.
In 2005 the WEISSCAM® HS-1, the first camera of P+S Technik, has been developed in cooperation with DoP Stefan Weiss. The digital high speed camera is suitable for extreme slow motion picture in commercial and sport takes.
Two years later P+S Technik launched in cooperation with Silicon Imaging the SI-2K Digital Cinema Camera. With the SI-2K P+S Technik introduced another high-quality product onto the market and completes since the choice of digital film cameras. |
