dropControllerV4 is the most advanced drop system available. It is an extremely precise system that uses a clear, easy to understand control panel. It looks nice too!
The dropController system has been developed over many years by drop enthusiasts for drop enthusiasts. It started life over 25 years ago as a purely DIY project (if you wanted one you had to build it) and grew to become the ultimate professional water drop system.
dropControllerV4 makes it easy to start water drop photography. The advanced features and functions make experimentation easy and fun and allow you to take water drop photography as far as you wish.
