Chrosziel has expanded the successful CDM Zoom Servo Drive family.
The Zoomer is a compact and universal zoom motor that can be pivoted to almost any lens by simply mounting it on a 15mm rod. The universal motor unit CDM-UNI-Z2 fits seamlessly into the operating functions of the Sony cameras of the FX9 / FX6 / FS7 / FS5 series. The servo drive is controlled via the zoom rocker on the handle. The motor control can be addressed via Sony's camera-specific protocol and also works independently of the camera signals when a digital LANC zoom rocker is plugged directly into the servo.Due to the included Chrosziel Flexi toothed ring (#206-30), the Zoomer can be used with almost any zoom lens even without standard cine gearing.
The multi-function handgrip, which in addition to the recording function and a zoom rocker also provide control over the camera menu and other freely selectable functions, are extremely popular on current video cameras with large sensors and are indispensable for effective operation.
The Chrosziel Universal Zoom Servo Drive now allows optimal use of all manual zoom lenses together with the multi-function handgrip. For this purpose, the Zoomer is slid onto a 15mm rod and swiveled onto the zoom lens. Two plug-in cables establish the connection with the camera. One cable is used for the power supply from the camera battery, the second for the connection to the control commands between the handle and the camera. When using a standard LANC zoom rocker or handle with the Sony PXW-FS5, PXW-FS7 and PXW-FS7II, the servo is connected between the handle and the camera via an input and an output jack to receive all zoom control signals. For setup with the Sony PXW-FX9 camera, a Y-cable is used that accepts the Sony multi-connector and connects to both the input jack of the Zoomer and the input jack of the camera.
For the Sony ILME-FX6 camera, a Y-cable is used and connects the 3.5mm connector of the Sony handgrip, input jack of the Universal Zoom Servo Drive, and the Sony camera.

Light weight support for Sony ILME-FX6, with integrated shoulder pad, 2 rosettes, VLock-Plate, Tripod Adapter Plate, 2 rods Ø 15mm, l. 205mm.Lightweight support (LWS) for Sony FX6 cameras Four positions are provided on the light support for the 3-point camera attachment, which allows the camera to be attached to the light support without distortion. This guarantees parallel alignment of the optical axis to the light support and the attached compendium.
A specially hardened V-lock plate allows the light support to be used on the tripod with the standard Sony VCT-14/VCT-U14 adapter plate, the Chrosziel V-Mount Quicklock plate (401-150) or compatible adapter plates from other manufacturers in a stable two-point lock. The V-Lock plate under the light support can be easily exchanged by the user for the tripod adapter plate (401-FS7/5-03). This allows other adapter plates, such as the Sachtler plate, to be firmly screwed to the light support. The attachment points of common adapter plates are taken into account. Both the Chrosziel V-Lock plate and the tripod adapter plate have captive screws.The shoulder pad under the light support can be moved over a wide range. A lever clamp mechanism with external lever access allows the user to slide it on the shoulder. This allows him to quickly correct the balance of the camera during operation. The pad is tapered to fit the shoulder and has an elevation toward the neck for side protection. After fully opening the lever clamp, the pad can be removed and inserted rotated 180 degrees, so that one can equally use the light support on the left or right shoulder. The pad itself is manufactured using a new process from the automotive industry in a special mold with a molded core surrounded by an elastic material with a strong durable outer shell. This multi-layer construction results in high comfort and fatigue-free work.At the front of the light support, 15mm tubes are attached with one clamping lever each. On both sides of the light support there are Hirth rosettes (Arri compatible) for attaching handles or other accessories.The optional rear tube clamp can be screwed to the rear end of the light support. With additional 15mm tubes, battery adapter plates, video transmitters, video recorders or other accessories can be attached behind the camera in a variable and movable way. Alternatively, there are four screw points (1/4 and 3/8" with Arri anti-twist protection) at the top of the rear part of the light support for accessories.The Chrosziel light support of the FX6 is the optimal result of stability and weight due to a sophisticated design.

The Chrosziel Meta Mount is a Sony E camera to PL lens “hot mount”
adapter with metadata communication. Each mount has the required pin contacts
necessary to transmit lens metadata through to the camera and conversely the
contacts provide lens control through a 12-pin Hirose out connection to an ENG
lens.
When the Meta Mount is used with cine lenses with LDS or Cooke/i Data
the metadata such as iris setting, focus distance and zoom focal length are
transmitted through the adapter and appear in the viewfinder, on the monitor
and are recorded in the video file for use in post processing.
When the Meta Mount is used with an ENG servo motor-controlled broadcast
lens the Focus/Iris/Zoom servo’s can be controlled through the camera and are
compatible with the Sony FX9 / FX6 / FX3 hand grips, RCP or camera’s web GUI.
This allows for easy and full control of an ENG broadcast lens through a Sony E
mount camera.
