The MasterEye Visual Controller VC100 monitor-controller allows you to record 1080p video backups and supports their subsequent playback. The controller is equipped with a 3.5mm headphone input for real-time audio monitoring when recording video with conversations and sound (this function is supported only when used with a 2.0 transmitter, the AI transmitter does not support this functionality).

The focus/zoom drives can be controlled from the monitor. It supports setting the sensitivity of focus control at three levels: low, medium and high.

A TransMount Focus/Zoom Control drive mounted on the stabilizer and a TransMount Video Transmission Transmitter are required.

It also supports controlling the camera position on the stabilizer using a motion sensor. The controller’s touch screen can be used to switch stabilizer modes and change shooting settings, according to a press release.
