REMOTE CONTROL FOR PANASONIC 522P
The 522P is a dual circuit, progressive zoom remote control unit for the Panasonic AG-DVC-30, AG-DVC80 and AG-DVX100A. It is built into a video head
pan bar that is suitable for Manfrotto models 3433, 3460, 516 and 3274. The dual circuit allows you to choose between a zero power consumption
“analog” mode for basic functions (record/stop and progressive min-max zoom via a professional zoom wheel) and a 3 AA (1.5 volt) battery-powered,
advanced, customizable, digital mode. The digital mode gives you the record/stop function, and the zoom wheel. The zoom wheel can be used to control
one of three preset maximum zoom speeds or a customizable maximum speed which you can set to exactly the level you want. The “custom” zoom
speed setting remains in the unit's memory even when batteries run down, until you decide to change it. In addition, for all options except the slowest
preset speed, you can choose between progressive zoom speed (the further you rotate the zoom wheel, the faster the zoom) and fixed zoom speed
(irrespective of the rotation applied to the wheel, zoom speed remains constant) by pressing the button once (progressive) or twice (fixed). An LED shows
you which speed you have selected. The 522P also allows you to set left- or right handed operation by changing zoom wheel direction. The 522P does
not come with any parts to fit to the head, but instead utilizes the pan bar clamp that comes with all Manfrotto heads.
Battery compartment located in
handle of pan bar. Batteries not
