If you are a crowd funding backer / voucher holder please make your Phase 1 payments now. We are starting to purchase essential components like the image sensor or Microzed in volume for your camera unit soon and need to start collecting funds now. Please also make Phase 1 payments if you are not sure when to get your AXIOM Beta unit or if you decided to wait for the AXIOM Gamma instead. If you purchase as company with European VAT ID please create an account in the webshop and contact us before making the purchase. If you need any help with the webshop or the payment options please get in touch with us and we will be happy to assist you.
The at-cost price of the AXIOM Beta with 4K Super35 image sensor is currently estimated to be around € 2,100. To create a transparent payment plan that only involves money transfers when the funding is actually needed for certain manufacturing steps we came up with a 3 Phase Payment System. Once all 3 phases are covered your AXIOM Beta unit is fully paid and should be on its way to you. Please note that these prices do not include VAT, shipping or any custom/import fees for your particular country.
Phase 1 Payment | Phase 2 Payment | Phase 3 Payment |
Prepayment so we can buy essential components (image sensor, Microzed, etc.) at 500+ quantity | Funds to build your AXIOM Beta Hardware(reach 80% of camera value) | Balance payment to reach 100% at-cost - (~20% rest payment) |
until February 5th | when camera is ordered | when camera ships |
€ 1000 | ~ € 700 | ~ € 400 |
What are phased payments?
Please read this overview page about the phased payment system for AXIOM Beta crowdfunding supporters.
I did not participate in crowdfunding, is there still a way to join now and acquire an AXIOM Beta?
Yes, please join the preorder list and we will notify you as soon as there are open slots.
Do I also pay VAT if I order from outside Europe?
With a non-European billing address the VAT should be gone within the last steps of the checkout process.
Will anything be shipped with Phase 1?
Your camera unit will be delivered once Phase 1 - 3 are complete.
Do I also need to pay Phase 1 if I did not decide when to get my AXIOM Beta yet?
Yes, the components we buy with Phase 1 for your camera unit are essential no matter when you will get your AXIOM Beta unit.
Do I also need to pay Phase 1 if I want to wait for the AXIOM Gamma?
Yes, as we will still buy the image sensor for you already to get the better volume deal. AXIOM Beta and AXIOM Gamma use the same image sensor module.
Should I also pay Phase 1 if I want another image sensor than the CMV12000 in the future?
Yes, we will deduct the price difference on Phase 2/3. Please understand that only the CMV12000 module is developed at this point and different sensor options will take some time to be developed.
Can I pay Phase 1 - 3 altogether now?
Yes, please contact us.
What happens with my voucher if I don't participate in the Phased Payments?
Your voucher does not expire and you are still entitled for an at-cost AXIOM Beta unit. But the actual at-cost price strongly depends on the number of cameras we build and therefore the volume discounts we get so we cannot guarantee when a next production batch will be available for you and what the price will be in the future.
