Description

Zoom and focus control for Sony, Canon, JVC and Panasonic  HC-X2, HC-X20, AG-CX10, HC-X2000, HC-X1500, AG-CX350, & AU-EVA1 cameras. The LANC zoom control for Sony, Canon, JVC and Panasonic has all the features and convenience of the Stealth-LX, but utilizes a pressure-sensitive, side-to-side rocker switch like broadcast lens controls. This rocker has a greater range of motion for a finer degree of zoom control. This is our most popular controller of all time for a good reason. The VariZoom VZROCK offers more features than any affordable unit on the market in a compact package with intuitive ergonomics, and it is compatible with hundreds of cameras.

  • Wide-sweep variable rocker for smooth, sustainable zooms
  • Dedicated “rocker style” focus button
  • Low profile record/pause button

  • Switch between auto and manual focus with the ‘A’ button*

  • Iris control (F+/F-) *
  • NOTE: for VZROCK and VZSTEALTHLX the “A” button, “ON” button and “DATA” button do not work with Panasonic cameras.
  • * these features only work with some cameras that have them enabled in their software

 

The VZROCK zoom and focus control has been in production since 2003 and has an impressive track record in the field.

Shooters around the world rely on the VariZoom VZROCK to give them remote control of their camera on tripods, jibs, camera towers, shoulder supports and more. We also sell extension cords in 4 different lengths and converter cables for cameras that do not have a direct 2.5mm LANC port.

      Hi Ron,

      Unfortunately this camera does not have the LANC protocol, so it is not compatible. You’ll have to go with the Sony remote RM-VPR1.

      Thanks,

      Tom

      Varizoom Rock is the bomb! – had a AX33, but won’t adapt to a Rock – ( ive used the rock with many Hi8 & miniDV camcorders for years, with great success ) – I know its ~$500 more, but dump that AX33 and get an AX100 — it takes 2 adapters to connect to the multi-connector, but its worth it (Sony and Manfrotto controllers, UGH!)…

    I am using this remote with a Canon XA11 and it is wonderful! Zoom is very precise. Can be slow or really quick. Focus control is OK, a knob would be better, but it does work. I have not been able to adjust the Iris or data. Start/stop is good.

      Hi Greg,

      At a minimum, you should have zoom, focus and record control, and the LED should work. Without testing, I’m not sure about the additional features. It always depends on which remote features are enabled within the camera itself.

      Thanks,

      Tom

    Adam Szofran

    Will this work with the Panasonic HC-X1500, HC-X2000, AG-CX10 (all very similar)? In particular, I’m interested in these features: record on/off, recording status light, zoom, power on/off. Thanks.

      Hello Adam,

      Yes, the VZROCK will work with the Panasonic HC-X1500, HC-X2000 and AG-CX10. Record, recording status light, and zoom work. I do not believe power on/off is supported in Panasonic cameras.

      Thanks,

      Tom

      I’m am not certain about iris in particular with those specific camera models. Iris control is not always available in the camera’s remote software, but if it available then it should work.

    Hi, would the FOCUS and ZOOM controls be able to control a Canon CN-E 70-200 servo lens on an EVA1? If so can the other buttons be reprogrammed for other functions?

      It will have some function but mostly it depends on the lens that is attached. For example, you’ll only get zoom with a CN-E 18-80 or 70-200 lens, as regular EF photo lenses don’t have zoom motors built in.

    Can I toggle between autofocus and manual with the “A” button on a Panasonic AG-CX350? I recently bought both and can not get it to work.
