This Deluxe Zoom Controller and Electronic Focus Controller Bundle for Select Sony Camcorders from VariZoom is comprised of a deluxe zoom controller, wired focus controller, and baseplate with 15mm LWS rods. The zoom controller mounts onto your pan handle and features an 8-pin connector for connecting to and controlling the zoom on Sony EX cameras. This connector is specific to the EX cameras which include the EX1, EX3, PMW-160/200/300 and the zoom control only works with those cameras.
The grip features a pressure sensitive zoom rocker, manual speed control dial, and REC/Pause button. The RET button functions as expected and will allow you to review the last five seconds of your last shot. The wired focus controller features a motor that mounts onto 15 or 19mm rods, and it comes with three interchangeable drive gears. The hand unit also allows you to pre-program five focus positions that you can move to without using the focus knob. Included in this bundle is a baseplate and rod system.
VariZoom's Wired Electronic Focus Control for Canon, Fujinon, and Cine Lenses mounts on either 15 or 19mm rods and allows you to remotely pull focus with virtually any lens with Canon, Fujinon, or cine-style lens gears. Suitable for use with cameras on various moving camera platforms including remote heads, jib arms, and dollies. It features a focus knob and an LCD info screen for setup and control. It is a powered focus control unit, which can be used for focus, iris, or zoom by directly driving a geared lens ring.
The included adjustable cine-style gear lens gear can mount onto a lens without a lens gear to enable focus pulling. Likewise, the included 0.6 MOD lens gear can be used on select Sony camcorders. The included interchangeable motor drive gears are compatible with Canon, Fujinon, and cine-style focus gears. Also included is a 0.8 MOD gear (32 DP) and a fourth gear (64 DP) for pulling the iris. The unit requires manual calibration, and this allows you to set five programmable focus points to rapidly change focus between five points bypassing the focus knob.
