Zoom
Commander DVX
The Zoom Commander® DVX places
exceptionally smooth and reliable record and dual zoom controls right under
your thumb- all wired directly into your DVX100, DVC80, DVC60 or DVC30
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 DVX100, VC80, DVC60 or DVC30 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).
Control Your Camera From Afar
Included free of charge with every Zoom Commander® DVX are twenty
five foot and twelve foot extension cables. Just attach one or both of
these to the end of the controller's six foot cable and you can control
the camera from a distance. You can also purchase additional zoom
controller extension cables as long as one hundred feet. Use them in any
number of limited access situations. You can also use two Zoom
Commander® DVXs to control two cameras from one location.
Special Construction
The Zoom Commander® DVX housing and attachment plates and clamp are all
black anodized aluminum alloy, and very light and compact. The push
buttons are square and separate, and each intentionally only performs
one camera action (that way you can't slip the wrong way as you might on
a dual function rocker switch). The push buttons are also extremely
tactile, and arranged in a logical grid, so your thumb can easily find
the right button by feel-- so you'll always know exactly where to push |
