Preston FI+Z3 Lens Control Hand Unit

This hand unit integrates its 30-channel 2.4GHz wireless link into a new splash-resistant housing with weather-sealed tactile switches throughout. The integrated microwave antenna is protected from impact. The iris slider uses a unique non-contact technology to eliminate the opening required for a conventional sliding seal.

New software called “Lens Mapping” allows the focus distance markings of a lens to be matched to a set of five pre-marked focus scale rings. These rings differ in their minimum focus marks which range from nine inches to six feet. The on-board lens library holds data for 100+ lenses, freeing the assistant from having to mark up individual rings.

A bright, sharp, organic LED display shows camera, lens, and Hand Unit set-up status. Focus settings can be displayed digitally for Cooke i-Lenses, or any lens which has been calibrated to the unit.

Electronic focus marks can also be entered and displayed using a new bargraph display mode. The bargraph display shows the relation between the focus knob setting and nearby focus marks.
