SmallRig Battery Mount Plate 3777

This handy remote control unit is designed to work with Sony and Canon equipment using the LANC.

It enables you to control your camera using a cable connected to the LANC port rather than using the buttons on the camera. This can make operation much more convenient and flexible for you enabling you to focus on the shot you are trying to capture rather than the mechanics of the equipment. Basically, it lets you better control the pan bar mounted on the video head better. It also opens up the possibility of having a second pan bar which can be very useful out on location.

Additional features include maximum-speed zoom potentiometer, stand-by push button, RET push buttons (playback latest five seconds), rec/zoom/focus indicator LEDs, zoom and focus direction knob (by software), multi-speed zoom and focus knob and a focus/zoom switch.

Get zoom control of MFT lenses with power zoom when using Blackmagic Studio Cameras. Now you can control lens zoom from the tripod handles! Even includes buttons for triggering camera functions.

One of the world’s first true electronic HDSLR remote controls, the Clamp-On Electronic Remote Control for Canon HDSLRs lets you react quickly to changing contexts and creative inspiration.
It connects to your Canon HDSLR via USB and interfaces with the camera and lens firmware directly in order to control focus operations, live view, record start/stop & shutter release, and more.

Along with the Deluxe model, the Clamp-On remote control unit promises real innovation in the field of HDSLR filming by circumventing the need for any physical contact between follow-focus equipment and the camera lens, instead wiring directly into the camera body to use the internal focus control systems.
The advantages are obvious: lenses can be swapped easily without extra hardware or adjustment, nothing jolts the camera unexpectedly during follow-focus, one-man camera operation is easier, and control at a distance is as simple as extending the cable between the camera and the remote. The Clamp-On Remote is perfectly integrated into the SYMPLA system, fitting comfortably to the spacer element of a SYMPLA Adjustable Handle and allowing fingertip control of key camera functions without moving the hand from the grips, in turn making support more stable and secure.

The USB connection also permits occasional firmware upgrades.
