CAMERA CONTROLLER FOR PANASONIC CAMERAS
MCU-100/200 MULTI-CAMERA CONTROLLERS
Control Cameras from a Single Location
Save tons of time adjusting your Panasonic cameras with the
MCU-100 or MCU-200(1RU Rack-Mounted) Camera Controller.
Imagine this — You're almost ready to shoot. It's time to make sure
each camera is configured properly. But wait, how will you check
the cameras' outputs on the multi-view and adjust them at the same
time? If you're by yourself, you can look at your multi-view monitor,
then walk to the camera, make an adjustment, and walk back to
the multi-view. You COULD do this many times until all the cameras
match each other perfectly on the screen. After the fifth trip to your
sixth camera, you're finally done, but you've already spent at least
an hour doing adjustments.
But what if you have a crew? You could have one of your staff
members walk to each camera while you stay at the multi-view,
giving him or her directions by intercom. That would be a bit
faster.
BUT wouldn't it be GREAT if you could do all the camera
adjustments yourself without having to leave your multi-view
monitor? Now you can, with the MCU-100/200 Camera
Controller.
Control up to 4 Panasonic Video Cameras
The controller allows a distance of up to 300 meters between
the cameras and the controller using the included AD-1
Adapters. The interface between the MCU-100/200 & AD-1
is a RS-422 differential line. You can also use CAT-5e/6
cable up to 3280.84 feet (1000 meters).
