When it comes to Portable Production Units (PPUs) space is at a premium. The Sony RM-B170 remote control unit is the successor to the popular RM-B150. It provides a compact, affordable solution for remote camera operations, with added features including the remote control of media and the operation of clips of non-linear media. Broadcast Electronics is pleased to announce that the RM-B170 and the RM-B150 are now supported by the Maxwell z24 system offering fully featured wireless camera control for Sony cameras and control panels.<\/p>\n

When the Maxwell system is used with a wireless video link the freedom and flexibility of a wireless camera can be realised with control that behaves the same as a cabled camera system. And with worldwide license free wireless operation the the Maxwell z24 is a true plug and play solution.<\/p>\n
