Heden VLC-1L VM35 Lens Control System
This Heden VLC-1 VM35 kit is set up for use on Sony FS5/FS7/FS7II with a zoom lens bracket for the Fujinon MK series lenses.
The Heden VLC-1 VM35 Lens Control System was developed for use on the Sony FS5/FS7. With the pre-mounted lens brackets the VM35 motor is easily moved from lens to lens within seconds, without tools. The VLC-1L with adjustable top speed, override function and ramping make it an ideal tool for smooth and precise operation in high, or low, speeds.
The VLC - Versatile Lens Control system - for Sony FS5/FS7/FS7II
The new Heden lens control system was developed with the user in mind. We created a flexible system to meet new demands and the same system can be used to control either zoom, focus or iris. The 99 position top speed limit is easily adjustable from the hand grip or on the controller in order to optimize both creeping slow zoom or very quick movements, with precise control.
The motor override function lets the operator to manually move the lens by hand in parallel with motor control without losing calibration. The system works stand alone on any camera with 3:rd party LANC controller or integrated with the Smartgrip on Sony FS5/FS7/FS7II by LANC protocol. Flexible controller positioning allows for good weight distribution.
Silent, low weight and flexible. Adjustable torque, speed and of course with automatic calibration.
The controller power cable has a DTAP connector. If V-lock batteries are used there is normally D-tap out available.

Swit S-8U63 with D-tap adaptor S-7105
