6.2.3.3.16.1. Load lens data from ARRI cameras
Compatibility overview:
When Sync cam data is turned “on” and an ARRI LDS or Cooke /i data compatible lens is
mounted on a compatible ARRI camera, the lens data will be transfered to the cPRO / cPRO
PLUS / cPRO ONE hand unit automatically. But, loading a lens file from the cPRO / cPRO
PLUS / cPRO ONE hand unit´s internal memory (or an attached USB drive) will replace the
lens file transferred from the camera.
Note: The lens data from the ARRI LDS or Cooke /i data lens will be reloaded automatically
each time the cPRO motor is initialized. For example, after rebooting the camera, rebooting
the cPRO motor / camin or disconnecting and reconnecting the cPRO motor / camin to the
camera.
NOTICE
Due to the different interpolation methods between ARRI and cmotion systems, the
interpolated lens values between set scale values may vary. Consequently, the display of
lens data on the cPRO / cPRO PLUS / cPRO ONE hand unit and the ARRI camera may vary.
However, because lens manufacturers do not give any specification for lens values outside of
their engraved value lines, there is no right or wrong method.
