Wireless Lens Control System
Canon offers a new wireless control system as an alternative to the
cumbersome control cabling that is often required between the lens
controllers and the lens-camera system. This consists of a Transmitter
Box (WB-10T) that is connected to the lens controllers, and a Receiver
Box (WB-10R) that is mounted close to the lens. These two boxes can
be separated by up to ten meters, and the wireless connection between
them provides precisely the same degree and quality of controllability
as afforded by the cabling system they replace.
Application Examples
Simple transfer between shoulder-mount shooting and tripod use
Remote control within restricted areas
System Configuration
*1 DC power supply for the WB-10T to be prepared by User. Size AA battery (x2pcs) is also available.
*2 The Clamper and the Belt for the attachment are included as a standard component in the WB-10R.

User Interface
Along with
continually
innovating optical
performance,
Canon strives to
enhance the
production experience,
as evidenced with our
latest digital drive unit. Refined by long-term market research
and worldwide experience, Canon mobilized the latest in 3D
CAD-CAM design to significantly improve the human tactile
interface to the control of zoom, iris, and focus. As a result,
the digital drive unit features:
Optimized Ergonomic Design
The size and curvature size have been optimized to more
comfortably fit in the palm of the operator's hand. Newly
developed coatings improve the tactile interface between
the user and the drive unit together with the new Rubber
Grip Support.
Reduced Physical Stress
By reducing the width of the drive unit, the palm of the camera
operator's hand is positioned closer to the optical axis, thus
reducing the degree of arm bend which in turn lessens physical
stress during prolonged shooting.
Improved Ease of Operation
The spacing between the focus ring and drive unit has been
changed to avoid accidental interference with the drive unit
while manipulating the focus control.
