LANC for HMC150?

[JaviBUSA08]

I am looking for a LANC controller for the HMC150. Which one do you guys use? Which do you recommend? thanks

LANC is a particular type of control used on Sony and Canon cameras, Panasonic has a different kind of control. They all do the same thing essentially, but just different names (so if you search for a Panasonic LANC you'll probably come up short).

Here's the one you want:

I use this one, and have been extremely happy with it.

Ditto what Scapsinger said. I have that one too. Controls zoom, focus and iris.

I got a Bogen 522P, works pretty good. Its a handle-style unit.

I got a Bogen 522P, works pretty good. Its a handle-style unit.

I also got the Bogen Manfrotto 522P, i was using the 523Pro lanc before and was great... the 522P is ok, is not as long as the 523 (thats because the 522P has a "digital mode" that needs 3AA batteries inside the handle) but you can use it without the batteries on the "analog mode"

Comparing the 523pro (on my sony) and the 522P (on the pany) the 523pro has a better feel... and also longer reach (about 6 to 8 inches longer)... but i still recommend the 522P (i only wish i had a power/standby button like the other one)

I will get the Varizoom clip-on also, that one is going to be great for the crane/jib use since you can control aperture and focus (mainly aperture for my needs)

I really like all of the remotes that have been shown. Here is a picture of the 522.
