Pan, Tilt, and Zoom on a single precision stick. Move horizontally and vertically to pan & tilt. Twist to Zoom in and out. Can be inverted and remapped.
- B 4 Assignable RGB buttons
Hardware-labelled (sticker pack included) and reassignable. Camera ID Selection, Active Track trigger, recording trigger — your call.
- C 8 Touch-Sensitive Dials
Can be mapped to camera settings like Iris · Gain · WB · Tint · Focus · Contrast · Saturation · Master Black · Pan / Tilt Speed and more. Also supports push actions, adding 8 more buttons.
- D 4 OLED displays
Showing the exact settings values (Iris, Gain, White Balance..) in realtime for all the dials.
Every Remote ships with a sticker pack so you can physically label the four RGB buttons by their current action. Re-map the action, peel off the old sticker, drop the new one on.
