  • THIS EPISODE - Full review of the new, feature packed lens control system from Tilta. A word of note. I’m not actually comparing this to the original Nano. I am comparing it to the Nucleus. This system is so much more closer to the Nucleus than the original Nano.

  • @waveland

    I’ve had the basic combo (wheel and one motor) for a while and basic functionality seems reliable. And I appreciate you spelling out the upgrade steps and a few of the other engineering quirks, maybe now I can update the firmware and delve into the details. My biggest initial gripe was the incompatibility with my full frame BMCC camera. The wheel would black out, lock up and require a full reset if connected to the BMCC Bluetooth. Maybe they’ve fixed that since? I will have to do some testing. My other frustration is with Tilta’s website. For instance should be much easier to find information about upgrading firmware. The search function on their “support” page is close to useless. So Scott, thank you for another of your fun, thorough, and thoroughly informative reviews. It seems I will be referring back to this a few times in the days ahead to make sure I understand the product better. Oh and I hope one of these days they will start selling the handle as a separate item. The last time I looked the part was still showing as on back order, though at least now you can get the full kit if desired.

    Thanks for The Lens Cuff shoutout!
    Now, I have to say that was a rather thorough review/walkthrough.
    I’ve had the 3 motors with the wheel for a while now.
    Initially they didn’t state that you need the handle to use the 3rd (and 4th) motor, so I had to wait several months to have complete FIZ control.
    The handle arrives in a few days…
    Your experience about the wifi is on par with my own, it could be better!
    As for the dim display on the handle, that’s a real bummer.
    I’ll have to rewatch for certain bits about lens mapping to try it with my own setup.
    Thank you for yet another excellent review!

    Great video, have you tried the handle with a gimbal to control it? I've got the nano 2, just ordered the handle and wireless adapter, so will be testing out in the near future

  • @joenicklo
    @joenicklo 4 місяці тому +1

    Appreciate the detailed review. It's great to hear about the firmware update. Do you think this is a viable replacement for the Nucleus M when using bigger/heavier lenses with a longer throw, for example a Tokina Vista?

    • @ScottBalkum
      @ScottBalkum  4 місяці тому +1

      Oh, its silly how powerful these motors are! It can throw a Vista around like a tiny lens. Made me laugh the first time I cranked fast on a big lens. And the torque was set to medium hahhaha.

    Do you have a good resource for pairing the wheel with the hand controller?

  • @DastanZhumagulov
    @DastanZhumagulov 4 місяці тому

    I bought a nano ii motor only, since I already own a nucleus m system. It’s either gonna serve me as a zoom motor because one of the M motors somehow got fried, or as a lightweight motor for RS3 Pro (hopefully rs4 pro will come out soon enough), because I found the M motor to make my Komodo+DZO Vespid setup too front heavy.

    @chungdha 4 місяці тому

    This isn't fully bug free, it is still pretty much a beta product that is still being developed with firmware updates. But I notice the motor is not as strong as the Nucleus M motor though. It is useable but I would mod it to work properly for a 1st AC.

    • @ScottBalkum
      @ScottBalkum  4 місяці тому

      Really? The motors were incredibly strong for me. They could crank the stiffest lenses I had with no issues.
