Hi all
I've searched around and as far as I can tell the DVX100a, HVX200 and HPX170 all have the same zoom/start/stop connector. Any suggestions why my DIY controller works fine on my DVX but the zoom doesn't work on my HPX? (Rec button works though.) Anyone else had the same problem?
thanks
 
The DVX has only one LANC port input, Whereas the HVX/HPX/HMC have two LANCs (a 3.5mm mini video and a 2.5mm mini stereo). You will only get limited controls out of the old LANCs for the DVX.
 
the dvx controller will not work with the dvxA or any newer camera, you'll need to make a new one as the dvxA and up are no longer lanc, it's simple resistance. many of us on the board have built them. good luck
