103 | LANC Shepherd Stereo Remote (for video and still applications) | $434.95 |
Compatibility: This device uses the "ACC" port on upper end Sony digital cameras and the "LANC" port on newer upper end Sony and Canon video cameras.
It has been tested on the Sony Mavica MVC-CD500, and the Cybershot line including the
DSC-S75, DSC-S85, DSC-V1,
DSC-V3, Sony DSC-828, DSC-S717 and the Sony DSC-R1 (new).
and most other Sony and Canon video cameras with a LANC port.
How it works: The LANC port (called "ACC" on Sony digital cameras, also sometimes called 'Control L') uses a proprietary Sony synchronous serial protocol. The camera provides a digital framework that the controller has to fill at the appropriate moment with commands and identifying information. Timing for sending commands has to be right to within a few microseconds (microsecond is 0.000001 seconds). The LANC allows for this communication.
USER MANUAL: Additional information about the LANC Shepherd, detailed user instructions, and more stereo pictures are included here.
The Pictures: Here are a few sample images done by the inventor or the LANC Shepherd that show its flexibility. The first three stereo images here were obtained using a pair of Sony DSC-V1 cameras, using a Sync Shepherd to monitor the sync and twinned remotes to take the exposure. The last picture was obtained using the LANC Shepherd. These images all open in a new window. Optimized for screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher, 32 bit color.
