MagNum Mini

The hand unit

Optimized with users

The MagNum wireless FIZ Lens Control System (LCS) was ergonomically and functionally optimized together with users. It is availabe in three versions: the basic model with one motor channel (MN-101), a two-motor channel version with a Zoom Rocker (MN-ZR) upgrade option for the hand unit (MN-150), and a fully equipped 2-motor channel version (MN-200). Extension modules expand MN-150 or MN-200 receiver with a maximum of two other motor channels, and enhanced broadcast capabilities.

MAGNUM MINI

Small motor controller

The MagNum Mini – perfectly suited for Gimbal, Handheld, Drone and Steadicam shots!

MODULAR DESIGN

Modules for up to 4 Motor channels and Broadcast

The MagNum Extension Module Motor and Lens Port (MN-EXT-MOT-LP) offers up to 3-motor channels and a camera lens port interface for universal use in Cine and Broadcast applications. The Extension Module Motor (AL2-EXT-MOT) upgrades the MN-200R on up to 4 motor channels, for 3D or special application users.

Mounting of the extension module onto the extension Interface of the MN-200R.

Extension module MN-EXT-MOT-LP with 1x motor channel and 1x camera 12-pin Hirose interface for full broadcast capabilities (video return and talkback switching, Iris RCP control, focus, iris and zoom follow voltage).

Extension module AL2-EXT-MOT with two additional sockets for digital encoder motors (2x 7-pin Lemo).

ZOOM ROCKER

Stepless zooming, contactless mounting.

The Chrosziel Zoom Rocker (MN-ZR) combines mechanical stepless zooming for precise zoom control and contactless signal transmission reducing the risk of water, dust or dirt entering the MagNum Hand Unit.

For maximum protection and best ergonomic use, the Zoom Rocker is mounted on the back of your MagNum Hand Unit MN-150T or MN-200T. The Zoom Rocker is cable free and transmits the zoom signal without power consumption. The zoom speed is set by varying the angle of the rocker. Due to the use of latest CAD-optimized design, the rocker can be operated with one or two fingers. The MagNum Firmware integrates comfort functions like Zoom Speed, Zoom Zap, Software Zoom Limits, Zoom Soft Stop and Zoom Bar.

The Chrosziel Zoom Rocker is compatible with the MagNum Hand Unit MN-150T and MN-200T, manufactured 2016 or newer. Older models of the MagNum Hand Unit MN-150T or MN-200T can be upgraded for compatibility (MN-ZR-UP). The MagNum Hand Unit MN-100T is not compatibel with the Chrosziel Zoom Rocker.

DETAILED SOLUTIONS FOR INCREASED COMFORT

MagNum MN-150 and MN-200

The hand units MN-150T and MN-200T each offer a handwheel with two variable mechanical stops (VariLock II), infinitely adjustable fluid damping (VariFluid), mechanical locking device and the optional inclusion of scale discs or rings. The standard delivery scope contains a large scale ring.

The MN-200T hand unit additionally offers a contact-less, dust-proof slider bar with variable mechanical stops.

CHROSZIEL DIGITAL MOTOR CDM-100

The new Digital Lens Motor

The Digital Motor CDM-100 is a lightweight, silent, small, and horizontally aligned lens motor. It perfectly matches with photo, broadcast and cine lenses. The CDM-100 is available in MagNum and Aladin Kits as well as separately and convinces with its features:

Perfect for Gimbals, Drones and SteadiCam
Horizontally aligned
Extremely lightweight – 83 g without Gear and pipe clamp, (incl. cabel/plug), 126 g with pipe clamp
Extremely silent
Very small and short housing
Motor housing with standard 19mm diameter
Smart gear attachement for secure operation and fast exchange
Two gear diameters, Ø 40mm & Ø 60mm with mod 0.8 (other upon request)
Fixed motor cable additionally reducing motor size and weight
New, Universal Rod Clamp with integrated captive slider – quickly and easily adjustable for use with Ø 15mm or Ø 19mm rods

REFINED BRACKET

Always close at hand!

The optional belt Holster (MN-HOL) attaches the Hand unit securely to you belt. This means the Focus assistant can safely perform without getting stuck or swinging off of the hand unit and the hand unit itself is close at hand.

OTHER MOTORS

betz-tools and Hedén

For years, we have relied on the quality and the performance of the manufacturers Hedén Engineering Co. and betz-tools GmbH for our used engines. The engines are supplied in the kits for MagNum and Aladin and can also be ordered separately.

The motors of both manufacturers meet the following requirements: Digital motor with digital encoder, vertical, complete with gears 0.8 + 0.6 + 0.5 + 0.4 and bracket for mounting on Ø 19 rod and usage for Ø 15 rod.

MagNum is, of course, also compatible with other manufacturers such as ARRI CLM4, Indicam, Scorpio, Preston, RED Technica or similar digital encoder motors.

MOUNTING OPTIONS

On any hot or cold shoe socket, the cold shoe bracket MN-RMB1 secures the MagNum receiver. Instead of the camera hot shoe socket, the receiver can be mounted laterally on Ø 15 and 19mm rods on the Quick- t 15/19mm MN-RMB2 with the cold shoe Connection.

Alternatively, the articulating arm with ¼” screw threads 550-RA can be bolted directly to the Receiver or be removable mounted in combination with the cold shoe connector adapter 550-RABU to the cold shoe bracket MN-RMB1 of the MagNum Receiver.

MAGNUM KITS

Ready to shoot – with price advantage!

All kits include motor cables, a power cable with D-Tap connector (4-Pin XLR in MagNum Broadcast KIT) and a high-quality carrying case with foam insert (except MN-ACKIT). Included as well are motors with gears 0.8 + 0.5 + 0.4 and a mounting clamp for Ø 19mm and 15mm rods. Additional kits are available without motors or with motors of other manufacturers.
