Remote control for iris?
Does anyone know of a remote control for Sony and Canon video cameras that also allow you to control the iris settings? I currently have a couple but they really only zoom and focus.
Thanks |

Re: Remote control for iris?
To the best of my knowledge you'd need a CCU to fit on the camera and since there are a select handful of cameras that allow that in short the answer is "no".

Scott,
I dug a bit deeper and found this. Won't help but it does give some of the options available for certain Sonys. Studio & EFP Camera Peripherals | B&H Photo Video

The Canon ZR2000 LANC control will let you control the iris. It works on my XF305 and XL-H1A cams. I needed to change a setting in the cameras menu though. See the thread:

Re: Remote control for iris?
Thank you for the replies. I'm currently trying to get used to the custom wheel on an XA-10 and find it to be a bit tedious. I've learned to live with a touch screen, but that wheel to change my settings drives me nuts.

Re: Remote control for iris?
You will have a better chance finding it for a canon then you will a Sony in this price range.
Panny's have iris and focus controls. Why sony doesn't I don't know. |
