The RM-30BP Remote Controller from Sony is designed with a compact structure and is capable of managing a wide range of functions for compatible cameras such as the NX5R, FS7 (v4.0), and FX6, along with various other Sony cameras and camcorders. This remote facilitates control over features including one-push auto focus, manual focus, iris, and zoom adjustments for your lens. Additionally, it provides access to recording and display functions, as well as adjustments for shutter speed and white balance. Users can assign functions to six buttons on the controller, enabling the management of playback and operations for up to three cameras, either individually or simultaneously. The device includes an adjustment knob that can be configured to control focus, iris, or electronic ND selection, provided that the camera supports electronic ND. At the base of the remote is a zoom rocker equipped with a protective bar to minimize the risk of unintentional activation. Furthermore, it is possible to daisy-chain two RM-30BP units, allowing either remote to operate the camera. The remote can also be connected to a Sony MCX-500 switcher, which enables control over three cameras.
