this "Eco Rig" is totally carbon free. Designed some 15 years ago, it is powered by a small wind propeller which actions a set of gears to rotate a small platform equipped with a micro switch. Designed to be used with film camera, the rotation of the micro switch would meet eight micro contacts and trigger the camera. Today Murooka san only uses it to rotate his digital Ricoh GRIII on interval mode.
