VZTOC-ZFi3 3 Channel Wireless Follow Focus, Iris, Zoom w/3 Motors

The VariZoom TOC-ZFI3 (Zoom/Focus/Iris 3-channel) system brings cinema grade lens control into the realm of the affordable-to-own. This powerful, intuitive wireless follow focus system will pay for itself quickly and expand the capabilities of your productions. Although the price is relatively low, no corners were cut in the manufacture and design of the system. Expensive motor cores are painstakingly assembled into our zero backlash proprietary drive system, resulting in a smooth, quiet, highly dynamic operational range that will creep or blast off with equal grace.

• The compact receiver/motor driver is, on the surface, a no-frills black box, but deep down it’s the transparent heart of the wireless follow focus system, as it must execute all motor commands with unerring precision and authority.

The highly intuitive touchscreen-controlled hand unit is loaded with features that make it easy to use and powerful in operation. The compact force joystick allows superb command of zoom with 100-step speed and smoothing scales and true pressure-sensitive control. The custom machined fluid-drag focus knob is incredibly robust but delicate in action. A defeatable LED backlight ensures you’ll always be able to hit the marks regardless of lighting, while the parametric software allows great flexibility in setting the range and sensitivity of the knob response. The iris slider also includes a defeatable LED backlight and parametric software.

The entire wireless follow focus system fits into a compact, waterproof hard case that will take just about anything you can throw at it, while our 2-year warranty and exceptional customer support offer peace of mind.
