Camera Tripod
Zoom Controller
|
|
The Zoom Commander® DVX places exceptionally smooth and reliable record and dual zoom controls right under your thumb- all wired directly into the control jack. This lets you control these essential camera functions, and the tripod handle with the same hand--- without having to operate your DVX camcorder with the opposite hand with the controls suddenly on the opposite side of the camera. This also leaves your other hand free for mics and other things. and keeps your hands away from the camcorder, so you won't ever nudge or jostle your camera in the midst of a take, or record audio of your fingers brushing the mic or other camcorder parts.
Two Complete Sets of Zoom Controls, Each With Variable Speed Presets
Get the zoom speed exactly right every time. With our two complete sets of zoom controls, you can preset each set to different speeds, and have two reliable and repeatable zoom speeds right under your thumb. No fumbling with rockers, variable throttles, or other pressure sensitive zoom controls that make you guess how far to press to get the zoom speed you need. And no more having to keep it pressed down exactly right to maintain an even zoom speed. Preset the speeds (rehearse them if you like) and get zoom speeds that repeat evenly and precisely each and every time. Each set of zoom buttons has two continuously variable speed set dials, one for zoom in speed, one for zoom out speed, so set any of them anywhere you like.
Versatile Positioning and Lightning Quick Attach and Detach
With two mounting plates included, you can mount the Zoom Commander® DVX flat on the tripod handle or mount it tilted upward, whichever is most comfortable for you (this also makes it easier to adapt to your shoulder brace). The mounting plates and Zoom Commander® DVX each have Velcro® attachment pads, so you can attach the Zoom Commander® DVX vertically, horizontally, even diagonally, orienting the controls exactly the way you like them. And, of course, the Velcro® lets you detach just the controller in a flash, and put it back in a flash, without having to undo the clamp. The clamp itself utilizes two solid aluminum v groove blocks and screws down snug on the tripod handle or elsewhere and stays put. When you want to move the Zoom Commander® DVX to another tripod or other piece of gear, the swing away block also lets you disconnect the entire DVX zoom controller and clamp without having to unscrew and completely disassemble the clamp (and without having to reassemble it when you move it back).
