The ProZoom DVX Panasonic zoom controller gives you precision variable
speed zoom control for your Panasonic camera, along with controlling the record/pause function of your camera.
Our unique Dual Mode Zoom™ feature gives you two different methods for controlling the zoom.
- Mode 1, you control the zoom and zoom speed with the zoom knob. This allows you
to gradually ramp up the zoom speed and then gradually decrease the zoom speed, all with super smooth control.
- In Mode 2, you have separate push buttons for zoom in and zoom out. You preset
your zoom speed using the Split Zoom™ controls, then press either the zoom in or zoom out buttons and you'll have a
constant smooth zoom at your preset speed.
The Split Zoom™ feature allows you to set zoom out for one speed while having the zoom
in set for a totally different speed.

Customer Comments:
"At the last Sundance Film Festival I saw someone filming during the festival. They were using the Panasonic DVX-100 and this jib
arm. They said they were using the DV Jib arm from Studio 1 with the Studio 1 ProZoom DVX. After watching him use it for a few
shots, I knew I had to get one. I ordered as soon as I got back and I have been using on several shoots. I am very impressed
with both the ProZoom DVX and the DV Jib. If anyone is a serious videographer or filmmaker working with the DVX-100, they really
need both of these items. Great stuff." Mark Bowman, Hollywood, CA
"I love the ProZoom DVX. Having the ability to switch between the two zooming methods is awesome. Most of the time I prefer to
set the zoom speed and push a button. But, there has been a few times that I wanted to slow the zoom down while I was zooming in
and your controller lets me have the best of both worlds. Great product!" Michael Young, Boston, MA
"The ProZoom DVX is a great product for the DVX100 owner. I've used it on two documentary films I've shot and found it
indispensable. It's well made and the ability to have separate zoom speeds for zooming in and out it a great feature." Stephen
Clark, Seattle, WA
"I am using the DVX100 to shoot an independent film here in LA, when I heard about your zoom controller from my grip. (He uses
your ProZoom on his GL2). I called you right away and had you send it overnight delivery. It arrived as promised. I plugged it
in the camera and it works perfectly. I want to compliment you on the quality of the unit and the layout of the controls. I
really like the split zoom feature, as there are times I need to zoom in slowly, but zoom out faster. You guys did a great job.
Thank you" Tim Robbins, Los Angeles, CA
"I've been using the ProZoom DVX on my DVX-100 for the last month or so with fantastic results. I really like the way I can
just press down a button and obtain a steady, smooth zoom every time. It sure beats using the rocker to hold at a steady speed.
For most of my work I need to keep the zoom speed steady, but I've been playing around with the zoom control knob for ramping
up and down the zoom speed. That is a cool option to have. I am glad you gave us the best of both worlds. You people really know
your stuff." Kenny White, Atlantic City, NJ. |
