• Standard 7.2 V NP-FM50 Sony batteries for hand unit.
• The lens are automatically calibrated when connecting the power cable to the digital motor from the Motor Driver Box (MDB) as well as from the Hand Unit set menu.
• The calibration remains saved on memory when disconnecting the equipment. This avoids any movement of the lens once the systems is connected back, been very useful in situations like battery replacement.

Special Functions
ARRI 435 SPEED CONTROL
The Scorpio Focus is the only lens control that with no other lens accessories, controls the speed ARRI 435 activating offset ramps with shutter change, Iris change or both simultaneously, to obtain the maximum range from 1 to 150 frames x sec.
GENERATOR OF TRAJECTORY
By applying a small reader to any type of track and connecting to the “MDB”, the Scorpio Focus can program focus and zoom movements with respect to the positions of the dolly on a track.
In this way you can generate movements difficult to perform manually, such as the so-called “Vertigo” sets us foreground with a vertiginous movement in the background.
Any Scorpio Focus can perform this function by adding the reader and a timing belt to any track.
3D
The Scorpio Focus allow us to move two synchronized motors at the same time, or 6 motors linked two by two when using 2 Motor Driver Box.
But what it makes the Scorpio Focus unique in the market is the ability to rescale mark by mark the second focus in regard to the first focus. This is very important considering that very few lenses keep the same scaling between each other even been the same focal length.
