No I will NOT move it back as this is the proper location for your particular topic. Your question is more specific to lens controllers than it is to the HD100. Now that I have moved the thread, it is properly categorized. Please learn how this site works.

The right head for the HD100 *will* allow for an additional pan handles. If you pick a single-handled tripod head for the HD100, then you're not choosing the correct head for that camera. I don't know of any single-handled head that would be appropriate for an HD100.

This forum covers standard 8-pin zoom controllers, separate focus controllers and yes even the low-end electronic LANC controllers as well. Even if your question concerned the low-end LANC controllers, this would still be the correct forum for it. So rest assured that I have in fact put it where it belongs.

It's critical to realize that the HD100 is a professional camera that calls for professional level add-ons including lens controllers, tripod heads, battery systems and more. Realistically you should expect to pay about 50% of the cost of the camera for all of these items together. Perhaps more than that. Remember these are business tools that should pay for themselves quickly if your business plan is sound.

In the future, please post to the appropriate forum. We have separate boards here for monitors, tripod heads, editing software, etc. You have access to all of them; it's just a matter of thinking beyond the camera. Thanks in advance,
