Pan Handle Control. The The Manfrotto RC Pan Bar EX Remote Control is an arm integrated control unit that fits larger Mantrotto fluid heads. This controller will let user zoom, focus, and change lens iris on compatible cameras. Additional switches and dials change zoom speed, auto focus on/off, RET, record start/stop, and camera power.
Tripod Compatibility. This pan arm is designed specifically for Manfrotto tripods and will only attach to models featuring their larger rosette design. As far as out rental stock goes, you can use it with the Manfrotto 502HD, 504HD, 526, and 509HD fluid heads.
Camera Compatibility. This controller has a 2.5mm LANC control plug and will require your camera to have one as well. A link to Manfrotto’s full list of compatible cameras can be found in the Resources section of this page. LANC compatibility is spotty across brands and even models, so if you don’t see your camera listed, reach out to us at support@lensrentals.com and we’ll try to verify this controller will work for you.
