Zoom Kick
∗∗∗∗
(For Use Only With Preston type Lens Motors)
Zoom Kick is a Program option that cancels out any backlash that is present in either
the Zoom motor or the Lens internal mechanics. It gives the Zoom repeatability in
either direction that it is invaluable for virtual applications and post production.

Press the Green button next to ZOOM KICK and the Zoom motor will start to move
in and out every 1/3 of a second.(You might not see this at first.)
•
Pressing
P
will increase this movement and pressing
M
will decrease this
movement. Keep pressing the
P
until this pulsing becomes visible in the Camera
picture, now reduce this pulsing using the
M
until the pulsing is no longer visible.
•
Press the
ESC
and the system will now remove Zoom backlash. You will see that
there is a three digit number given to the ZOOM KICK, you can enter this number
instead of using the
P
and
M
next time you are setting up ZOOM KICK.
