\n

The\u00a0ARRI Operator Control Unit OCU-1 Basic Set<\/b>\u00a0provides the means for a camera operator to quickly take over and relinquish control of a WCU-4 system’s focus, iris, and zoom axes. Use this compact, single-axis FIZ controller to save time while framing shots and executing challenging focus pulls.<\/p>\n

The OCU-1 Unit can also control EF lenses on ALEXA Mini or AMIRA cameras without the use of additional motors, and can adjust the roll axis on the ARRI Stabilized Remote Head SRH-3. Mount the OCU-1 Unit onto your rig using its integrated 3\/8″-16 thread, the included Dovetail Mounting Interface, or a separately available OCU-1 Rosette Bracket.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Note:<\/span>\u00a0cforce motors, WCU-4, and LBUS cables are not included.<\/p>\n

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Allows operators to over-ride WCU-4 controlled lens axes<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Small and lightweight\u00a0<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Provides EF lens control<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    IBC (Amsterdam) \u2013\u00a0<\/strong>A new tool to help camera operators take control of lens functions is being launched by ARRI at IBC 2018. The Operator Control Unit OCU-1 is an addition to the WCU-4 lens control system on ALEXA Mini, and enables operators to over-ride and return focus, zoom, and iris controls at the touch of a button. \u201cThis is a simple device that does exactly what the name implies,\u201d says Christine Ajayi, Product Manager PCA Electronic Control System at ARRI. \u201cIt gives camera operators full control of their lenses when they want it.\u201d<\/p>\n

    The OCU-1 will help save precious time while framing shots, as the camera operator will always have the ability to control the lens, even when motors are attached. It allows control of focus, iris, and zoom whenever required for practical or creative reasons. The device enables control of EF lenses mounted on ALEXA Mini and AMIRA cameras without any additional external motors.<\/p>\n

    Fitting into a long ARRI tradition of innovation, the OCU-1 will improve on-set efficiency and control. Small, lightweight, and easy to use, it has the same control wheel, display and LBUS integration as the ARRI Master Grips, and can be easily mounted onto common 15mm or 19mm rods, ARRI Rosette, or 3\/8\u201d mounts. The wheel can also be used to control the roll axis of the ARRI Stabilized Remote Head SRH-3. ARRI plans to start shipping the OCU-1 later this year.
