4.18. Working with Lens Data

Lens data can be created for virtually any lens using either a compact or cvolution hand unit,

cdisplay II and cworld. This process allows you to pair the digital position of each connected

motor to ‘recommended’ or manually input lens values. Both cdisplay II and cworld are capable

of storing up to 1,000 lens les in easy to manage lens databases. Each saved lens will be

recognized automatically after a full motor calibration and will be loaded onto the connected

cvolution camin. Lens data including focus, iris, zoom, depth of eld and Hyperfocal will be

displayed as an animated depiction on any cdisplay II or any connected smart device (e.g.

phone or tablet) when paired with cworld. Values and the relative motor position for focus and

iris are also displayed on the hand unit’s main display while zoom information is displayed on

the zoom unit display (when set to ‘ABS/SCA’).

Note: Only 1 lens le can be uploaded at any one time from either

cdisplay II or cworld when using camin 2M, 4M, 8M and 8M-TC.

Note: Up to 20 lens les can be stored and uploaded using the

cvolution hand unit as described in section 4.16 and 4.17.2.

Note: Up to 14 lens les can be uploaded from cworld and saved
