Sony Remote Control Instructions

After trying and returning 3 different Remote Shutter Control devices advertised as working on my specific Sony (none of the three came from B & H) I found this device on B & H's web site. It worked as advertised, right out of the box. If this one gets lost, stolen or cannot swim if dropped in a lake. I'll immediately order another from B & H.

I purchased two of the adapter cables for a some Sony HDR-CX160 camcorders used with a GrizzlyPro Remote Camera control system. It works as it should with LANC control with the new A/V port on the Sony camcorders.

This is the adaptor cable you will need for LANC remote control on a newer Sony camcorder with the D shaped AV/R labeled connector. Works with both the Manfrotto and Libec LANC zoom controllers on my Sony HDR-CX550V.

I use it on my Sony PMW 320 8 pin remote control on Fujinon lens , it works just fine to zoom in and out, fairly smooth as well.it also has an adaptor cable to attach to my EX3 Fujinon lens as well.works like a charm

Sony RM 30BP is a tool that allows one person to control many cameras. Many of Sony's camera work perfect with the remote, some will have full control of the camera. The ability to change setting in camera with this controller is a must when your in a rush. Using in a multiple camera setup with one remote is not ideal. Multiple camera and multiple remotes is ideal. The downside is cost and Sony needs to address the issue of the remotes being slightly defective. When zooming out slowly, sometime the remote will continue to zoom out unless assisted to stop. Bad for such a high priced remote control. Plus it would of been great if the buttons were backlit, making changes a dark room is really challenging. I have 2 remotes looking to add 2 more, but have had bad luck with finding good ones, without the defect as described above. All the ones bought from B&H have been good. Other sellers not so. B&H the greatest..

I have been using a Sony remote control for my A7r and A7rII cameras for about 4 years until the insulation on the wire opened up where the wire attached to the remote trigger and it ceased to work. This was very disappointing and just another symptom of the low engineering standards of Chinese made products. Sony offers this trigger for about six times the price of the Vello. Functionally the Vello is identical to the Sony. Now time will tell whether the Vellow holds up to heavy usage.

I use this wireless remote to control my Sony HDR-CX675 for filming my wood shop projects. Now I only touch the camera to reposition it or to upload vids or stills. The remote behaves as described - 2 speed zoom in/out, start/stop recording, still photo snaps, and camera power on /off. Only downside is the receiver does not fit into the recessed hot shoe (receiver doesn't need hot). I recommend this! -Mike

Varizoom Mini Audio/Video to Lanc Converter Cable to connect with a consumer Sony HDR-CX360 video camera and to use specifically with purchased Manfrotto RC Pan Bar EX Remote Control for LANC Cameras comes mounted with a standard pan bar and is compatible with LANC (Sony and Canon) cameras. The external remote variable speed zoom control mounted on a tripod. The more you turn the the zoom(focus) control the faster the zoom will go. Works zooming in or out with a great deal of control. There is a separate knob that works as a speed limiter. The camera was not on the list of cameras, all functions WORKED, worked well and with great operator control for the zoom. I believe my camera does not have a remote focus, therefor not checked for this function. Item used for capturing automotive race action. No negatives as far as operation. Items packed well, timely shipping.

We had been searching for months for a way to control all three of our Sony MC2500 cameras. This remote is plug and play, we plugged it in and it worked right away. No issues at all.

OMG, this little wired remote control is fantastic and works great. It does everything it's supposed to do and works great on my Sony FDR AX33 camera.
