VariZoom VZSPROC - Manual

Recording:
Press the button next to the zoom rocker to activate
the pause and record functions on the camera.
Video Return:
Plays back the last few seconds of recorded
material.
Zoom:
Your VZ-Pro Series features dual-variable speed control. You
can set the speed control knob to limit the max zoom speed available
through the variable thumb rocker. The variable thumb rocker is pressure
sensitive and allows you to smoothly ramp up to the max speed and back
down again. In other words, the rocker will give you the full range of zoom
speeds if the dial is turned all the way up, and a very small range of speeds if
it is turned almost all the way down (when it is turned completely down, zoom
is deactivated).
You can also use the speed dial in conjunction with the rocker, rolling the dial
with your index finger to vary speed as you depress the rocker. Max and min
zoom speeds may vary between different lens models, but the Pro controller
will access the full range of available speeds for any given lens.
Warranty Warning!
Do not open your control device. If you need service, call and we’ll
be happy to set up a service return. All controllers have a 2-year parts and labor warranty.
Please save your receipt and feel free to send us your comments and suggestions. Thanks!
