Q: 5. Will this control a Canon xf605 camera?

A: Yes, the SKAARHOJ PTZ Pro V2B with Hall Effect Joystick and Blue Pill Inside can control the Canon XF-605 using the XC protocol from Canon. This device has a default configuration for this protocol so you should have some control out of the box. The only thing to note is that this is a PTZ controller, and the XF605 is not a PTZ camera. So some of the settings might not be a great fit for this camera. But it will absolutely work. We also recommend the following Canon controller for the Canon XF605.
