BlackMagic Design Zoom Demand | Unboxing, Setup & Review

[@brokecitizen4934]

Hey AJ can you plug the usb c into the computer and zoom or teams would recognize it as a webcam

[@AJaytheCEO]

No it will not work that way

[@cambodiav2.0]

I have Panasonic Lumix G 14-42mm PZ and im planning to get Zoom Demand, will i be able to use autofocus on my lens? thanks

[@AJaytheCEO]

Yes I have that lens

[@EventStreamTeam]

Awesome brother

[@AJaytheCEO]

Thanks ✌️

[@filmarxfilmar]

great video, thanks friend. What optics are you using in the video?

[@AJaytheCEO]

Thank you. Which camera do you want info on?

[@filmarxfilmar]

@@AJaytheCEO I have a blackmagic pocket cinema 6K, is it possible to use those focus / zoom controls? Thank You.

[@AJaytheCEO]

@@filmarxfilmar Let me see if it works on my Pocket 4K

[@AJaytheCEO]

@@filmarxfilmar It didn't work on my Pocket 4K. The handle powered up then turned off. I am also on the latest firmware

[@IsaacOgoe]

@@AJaytheCEO how about other camera like a canon R

[@zachhp]

Is the speed the same for all lenses?

[@AJaytheCEO]

I'm not sure. I only have 2 powered zoom lenses but my second one doesn't have much of a range. They both don't move as fast as I would like

[@jordan9266]

Hey! Do you *have* to use the zoom and focus demand on the new studio cameras?

[@AJaytheCEO]

No you do not have to

[@jordan9266]

@@AJaytheCEO is it possible to use my own 3rd party lanc controller with it? As long as I use a lanc to usbc adapter?

[@djcamreeve]

Will this work with the 'Panasonic LUMIX Professional 50-200mm Camera Lens, G Leica DG Vario-ELMARIT, F2.8-4.0 ASPH, Dual I.S. 2.0 with Power O.I.S, Mirrorless Micro Four Thirds, H-ES50200 (Black)' ?

[@AJaytheCEO]

Yes if they are powered

[@AM-mr8or]

What lenses are supported? Thanks!

[@AJaytheCEO]

Powered Zoom lenses

[@mikehyde7117]

Hey just to clarify I believe these need to be electronic (powered) zoom lenses rather then regular zoom lenses. Panasonic offer a couple with the micro four thirds mount 14-42 f/3.5-56 PZ and 45-175 f/4-5.6 PZ, Olympus also offer a couple of options 14-42 f/3.5-5.6 EZ and the 12-50 f/3.5-6.3 EZ

[@AJaytheCEO]

@@mikehyde7117 yes powered zoom lenses sorry for miss speaking the types

[@makuverse]

@@mikehyde7117 am I safe to assume “PZ” stands for “Powered Zoom” and “EZ” stands for “Electronic Zoom” and that so long as a lens has either of these labels that it should work with the controls?

[@weeardguy]

@@makuverse Most likely, EZ stands for the fact that the zoomring on the lens is not mechanically coupled to the lens-element(s) and thus is an optical encoder sending signals to the zoom-servo inside the lens. Though it sounds logical to support motorzoom via external command, the difference is that lenses in this field of use, contrary to professional videolenses used on cameras with interchangeable mounts, get the external control-signals from the camera instead of directly to the lens, and thus the lens has to support this communication, where it only acts on internal commands from the attached encoder when the ring on the lens is turned one way or the other. Panasonic for example is very clear on this: Powered zoom lenses feature the controls/communication to control the lens via the camera. If it's not mentioned, it's not supported and considering those lenses to be rather rare, it's more likely to not support it. To be really honest, I consider a remote with only two USB-C connectors to be a joke. It's great that they made a locking option, but a push-pull action connector would be more logical for ease of release.

[@mammifero]

Great Video, please can you tell us which are the powered zoom lenses that you use ? thanks

[@AJaytheCEO]

Panasonic LUMIX G X Vario Power Zoom Lens, 45-175MM, F4.0-5.6 ASPH Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 14-42mm F3.5-5.6 EZ Lens

If you walk quickly through the streets woth it, somebody will think it's a revolver😄

[@kerrypolingo1607]

Need more light!

[@pappiekay]

What are your recommended powered lenses ?

[@AJaytheCEO]

This will depend on the distance needed. I like the Lumix line of lenses

[@pappiekay]

@@AJaytheCEO Thank you, please which of the camera stand are using in the the video ?
