Chrosziel MN-200KIT-C - MagNum KIT 2-Channel

Remotely control your lens' focus and iris with Chrosziel's MN-200 MagNum Wireless Lens Control System. This system includes Chrosziel's 2-channel MagNum transmitter and receiver, as well as the necessary power and cabling accessories to use the unit right out of the box with the included Chrosziel CDM-100 digital motors. The MagNum unit is compatible with motors that use a 7-pin LEMO interface.

For easy operation, calibration is automatic with lenses that have hard stops. If you use stills lenses that don't have stops at close focus and infinity, a special calibration mode allows you to manually calibrate the focusing distance. To adjust the settings on the MagNum, an OLED screen and directional buttons provide an intuitive interface. Record start/stop can be controlled from the hand unit if the camera is connected to the receiver.

The hand unit is upgradeable for a third degree of lens control. The zoom rocker upgrade kit is separately available and adds an ergonomic zoom rocker to the rear of the transmitter.



MN-200 MagNum Dual Channel Wireless Lens Control System

The MN-200 MagNum Dual Channel Wireless Lens Control System from Chrosziel combines a receiver and a handheld transmitter unit for remote control of focus, iris, and camera record start/stop. The dual channel system operates at either the 2.4GHz or 430MHz frequency bands, offering five selectable channels in the 430 MHz band, and eleven channels in the 2.4GHz frequency band for interference-free operation. The receiver has ports that accept optional lens control cables, camera start/stop cables, and power cables. The system is compatible with optional lens motors, as well as wired analog zoom controls.

The hand unit features an ergonomically shaped handgrip and finger rest for comfortable operation, menu-guided intuitive handling through membrane keys, and a color OLED display. For focus control, a fluid-dampened hand wheel is provided, which spreads the focus range of any lens to one full turn of the wheel. Focus marks can be made on the marking disc, with two freely adjustable end stops also available. In addition to the focus wheel, the hand unit has a slide control for adjusting camera iris with extendable aluminum iris scales and adjustable end stops. Five 1/4"-20 mounting holes on the hand unit let you mount it to tripods stands, or even attach monitors. It is powered using Sony NP-FM50 type batteries.

Included with the MN-200 system is a Sony NP-FM50 type battery, battery charger, padded hand strap, padded neck strap, and two antennas for 430 MHz-band use.

CDM-100 Digital Motor

Designed for gimbal and drone setups, Chrosziel's CDM-100 Digital Motor is small at only 19mm in diameter and features an integrated 27" LEMO 7-pin 1B cable for connecting to Chrosziel's FIZ systems. Since this motor utilizes a horizontal design and an integrated cable, it can be kept to a low profile when size and weight, or lack thereof, are of prime importance. This motor includes a 19mm clamp with a 15mm adapter for LWS compatibility and two MOD 0.8 gears; one 1.6" and one 2.4" in diameter to compensate for recessed lens control rings.



MagNum LCS Remote Control Case

The MagNum LCS Remote Control Case from Chrosziel is a hard case for the MagNum camera and lens remote control. It is designed to fit the unit along with a motor, clamp holder for 15 and 19mm rods, all motor cables, power cable with D-Tap plug, and its components. The case includes a foam insert to protect the MagNum lens control unit.
