LANC controller for BMD Studio HD Cameras

PostWed Nov 28, 2018 3:40 am

Looking into a LANC controller for our BMD Studio HD Cameras. Would love to have both Zoom and Focus.

We already have the Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Power O.I.S. and the Panasonic Lumix G X Vario PZ 45-175mm f/4.0-5.6 Zoom O.I.S. lenses.

Or is there a "BEST" combination of LANC controller and lenses?

Thanks in advance.

Here is Blackmagic's official list of supported servo zoom lenses for the studio cameras:

I believe this includes all of the Micro 4/3 servo zoom lenses that are currently available.

There is a video showing zoom of the 45-175mm lens with a LANC controller on the studio camera here:


The video shows a Manfrotto MVR901ECLA zoom controller, but I have also heard reports that it works with VariZoom and Bebob LANC controllers.
