Ideal for freelancers and small-budget productions, the lightweight remote can be handheld, placed on a table or attached to a tripod arm for operation. The RM-30BP can control most camera functions including:
- Lens control: one push auto / manual focus, iris and zoom control
- Camera control: recording / display functions, shutter speed, white balance - including six assignable buttons
- Playback and multi camera control (up to 3 cameras)
The RM-30BP can also be connected to the new MCX-500 for multi camera control directly from the switcher, and is compatible with the HXR-NX5R and PXW-FS7 v4.0, with plans to introduce compatibility for other Sony camcorders.
