Customer FAQ
Do you offer trade-in services for my existing equipment?
Absolutely. VIDEO BROKERS buys or trades in your professional equipment (cameras, lenses, tripods) and any other new or used broadcast gear.
What is the utility of the 16-bit digital encoders?
They provide accurate position metadata for zoom, focus, and iris. This is essential for real-time virtual studio tracking and remote operation workflows.
How does the electronic flange back adjustment function?
The F.F switch performs an automated electronic calibration of the distance between the lens and sensor, eliminating the need for manual mechanical adjustments.
Can this lens perform close-up macro shots?
Yes. By sliding the focus ring forward, you engage macro mode, allowing for focusing distances as close as 5 cm from the front element.
