Given ikan’s vast array of products, it’s no wonder they have a complete follow focus system available as well. The PD Remote Live Multi-Control System allows you to control focus, zoom and iris on both cinema and EF camera lenses. We spoke with ikan’s George Tripsas for more about this multi faceted focus system.
The PD Remote Live Multi-Control System is a self-contained, multi-control handgrip and motor system than can control focus, iris and zoom on both cinema and EF camera lenses. Easy one-push calibrates to the mechanical stops of the lens. The system comes in two versions: PDL and PDL-HT, with high torque.
The PD Movie Remote Air Wireless Follow Focus is an adaptable camera control solution offering lens focus and zoom/iris control for precise, reliable, and consistent performance. Designed for standard style lenses, the Remote Air comes in four versions: the single channel PD1, two-channel PD2, and high-torque versions of each, the PD1-HT and PD2-HT.
Custom-fit for BlackMagic Cinema cameras, PD Movie’s BlackMagic Armor System (BA1) has an ergonomic and streamlined design that integrates both power and control. Thumb wheel controls are smartly located in the handles. Features include quiet operation of the focus, zoom control and aperture control motors, along with a built-in camera battery lasting for up to four hours and a unique LED lens shade and eyebrow.
The PD Remote Live will be available early summer 2015 at a yet undisclosed price.
