Along with
continually
innovating optical
performance, Canon
strives to enhance the
production experience, as evidenced with our latest digital drive
unit. Refined by long-term market research and worldwide
experience, Canon mobilized the latest in 3D CAD-CAM design
to significantly improve the human tactile interface to the control
of zoom, iris, and focus. As a result, the digital drive unit
features:
Optimized Ergonomic Design
The size and curvature size have been optimized to more
comfortably fit in the palm of the operator's hand. Newly
developed coatings improve the tactile interface between the
user and the drive unit together with the new Rubber Grip
Support.
Reduced Physical Stress
By reducing the width of the drive unit, the palm of the camera
operator's hand is positioned closer to the optical axis, thus
reducing the degree of arm bend which in turn lessens physical
stress during prolonged shooting.
Improved Ease of Operation
The spacing between the focus ring and drive unit has been
changed to avoid accidental interference with the drive unit while
manipulating the focus control.
