FREEFLY MōVI Pro Lens Motor Cable

The FREEFLY MōVI Pro Lens Motor Cable is a specialized power and communication cable designed to connect a Lens Control Motor (LCM) to the Freefly MōVI Pro gimbal stabilizer. This crucial cable facilitates remote focus, iris, or zoom (FIZ) control from the MōVI Pro’s integrated system, enabling precise and seamless lens adjustments during dynamic camera movements.

Integrating remote lens control directly into the gimbal setup is a key advantage for MōVI Pro operators, allowing them to manage both camera movement and lens functions simultaneously. This specific cable is the vital link that powers the lens motor and transmits control commands.

Key features and benefits of the FREEFLY MōVI Pro Lens Motor Cable include:

• Dedicated Lens Motor Connectivity: Specifically engineered with the correct connectors on both ends to interface with the MōVI Pro’s dedicated lens motor output port and the input port of various industry-standard lens control motors (e.g., Freefly’s own LCM, or compatible motors from Preston, Arri, CMotion, etc., often via a standard Lemo or similar multi-pin connector on the motor end).
• Power and Data Transmission: The cable is designed to efficiently supply power to the lens motor and simultaneously transmit precise control signals from the MōVI Pro’s FIZ control system (controlled via MIMIC, MōVI Controller, or directly from the app). This ensures responsive and accurate lens adjustments.
• Optimized Length for Gimbals: Typically designed with an appropriate length (often in various options to suit different setups) that minimizes excess cable slack. This is crucial on a gimbal to prevent interference with motor movements, maintaining balance, and reducing snagging hazards.
• Durable and Flexible Construction: Manufactured with high-quality, flexible wiring and robust connectors. This ensures the cable can withstand the constant bending, twisting, and general wear and tear inherent in dynamic gimbal operations on professional film sets, guaranteeing longevity and consistent performance.
• Streamlined Rigging: Provides a clean and dedicated connection for lens motors, reducing cable clutter around the camera and gimbal, which facilitates quicker setup and breakdown times.
• Enables Remote FIZ Control: By connecting the lens motor, the cable allows operators to perform critical focus pulls, iris adjustments, or zoom transitions remotely, which is essential for maintaining smooth shots and artistic control without touching the camera.

The FREEFLY MōVI Pro Lens Motor Cable is an indispensable MōVI Pro accessory and a critical component for achieving professional-grade remote lens control with your Freefly gimbal. It’s a vital cinema lens control solution that empowers cinematographers to execute complex shots with unparalleled precision and efficiency on their Freefly MōVI Pro stabilizer.
