Review Summary

Rated 3 out of 5

Don't buy it for focus control. The resolution is pathetic.

I've been using these on Panasonic AG UX180 4K cameras. I have 2 Varizooms in regular use. The sensitivity, or better yet, the digital resolution of the focus controller is inadequate. The sampling steps of the digital encoder do not allow you to dial in focus properly in most situations. All too often I find the perfect focus is simply not achievable with the limited resolution of the focus controller. I can get close, and the very next step takes it beyond best focus. Disconnect the Varizoom and I can dial the focus right in on the lens. OK, so now I have only a remote zoom and iris controller, that merits 3 out of 5 stars for what I paid. Oh, and one of the Varizooms likes to zoom all by itself randomly, without adult supervision. That's a PITA!

Works great with the Panasonic AG-DVX200

Zoom, Focus, Iris and remote record work great. I am able to feather the speed of the zoom. Over compensating for the focus and iris is an issue, but that is probably the sensitivity of the camera. I wish the handle mounting was designed better to be easily attached and detached. I keep it on the tripod handle, but it needs to be protected.

When capturing the perfect shot with your Panasonic HVX200 or DVX100B video camera, the VZ-ROCK-PZFI Zoom, Focus & Iris Rocker Control offers unparalleled precision and versatility. This innovative device is the first of its kind, specifically tailored to enhance the functionality of your Panasonic camera by providing seamless control over zoom, focus, and iris settings.

Crafted with the professional videographer in mind, the VZ-ROCK-PZFI features a pressure-sensitive, side-to-side rocker switch, akin to those found on high-end broadcast zoom controls. This design allows for a broader range of motion, granting you the finesse needed for the most delicate zoom adjustments. The result is smooth, sustainable zooms that can elevate your production quality.

The ergonomic layout includes smooth and quiet knobs for adjusting exposure or focus with the touch of a finger, ensuring that your adjustments won't disrupt the moment. With independent focus and iris knobs, collaboration becomes effortless, allowing one operator to manage focus while another adjusts the iris. This dual-control system is perfect for dynamic shots and crane moves, unlocking a new realm of creative possibilities.

The VZ-ROCK-PZFI is not only high-quality and durable but also user-friendly. The body switches confidently click into position, allowing you to maintain your visual focus on the scene rather than your hands. The low-profile record/pause button adds to the convenience, ensuring that you never miss a beat.

This versatile device is compact, with a width of 2 inches, a length of 2.75 inches, and a maximum clamp diameter of 1.25 inches, making it an unobtrusive addition to any camera setup. The 40-inch cord provides ample reach for a variety of shooting scenarios, whether you're using camera supports, stabilizers, tripods, or jibs.

Constructed from durable ABS material, the VZ-ROCK-PZFI weighs in at a mere 0.25 lb., making it a lightweight yet robust companion for your camera. Its compatibility with the Panasonic DVX100B and HVX200 models ensures that it integrates seamlessly with your equipment, providing a reliable and efficient solution for managing your camera's settings.

In summary, the VZ-ROCK-PZFI Zoom, Focus & Iris Rocker Control is an essential tool for videographers seeking to achieve precise control and professional results with their Panasonic video cameras.
