The Movi Controller is a professional grade remote system that allows the operator full control over pan, tilt, and roll, as well as focus, iris and zoom, gimbal settings and camera control (for supported cameras).
The Movi Controller brings control the camera (pointing it, start/stop record, camera settings and FIZ) to one sleek console for Movi Pro, Movi Carbon and Movi XL. You can mount it to a tripod, or use the included neck harness to take your operations on the go.
Control of the pan, tilt, and roll come from a 2-axis joystick and any input knob you choose to assign to roll control.
It provides gimbal telemetry from the Movi (Movi Pro, Movi Carbon or Movi XL) and allows the user to access Movi system menus to enable on the fly adjustment of key system parameters.
You can start and stop recording as well as control capture parameters from supported cameras, both on the Movi Pro and from the Movi Controller (and the MIMIC).
There are individual, dedicated hardware inputs to allow to control focus, iris and zoom.
With a RED camera and Canon EF lenses on Movi Pro or XL you can control the focus and iris through the RED RCP Cable without external lens motors.
For all other camera and lens combinations, through the integrated 3-axis lens control system in the Movi Pro and Movi XL, you can control compatible external lens motors, or with the integrated FIZ motors in Movi Carbon.
The Movi Controller also simplifies the remote control station by providing a quick-release mount and power for an LCD monitor and optional accessories to help mount your wireless video system.
A single v-lock battery will power your controller, monitor, wireless video system, and additional 5 or 12v accessories. There are several power outputs on the controller:
