Though the first batch of microRemotes had some issues, the company has been working hard to improve both the hardware and software over the last few years, and it's a much more polished product than when it was first introduced (something that we really expect from all hardware manufacturers these days).
Here's what's new in the 4.0 Firmware:
- 50% more torque during calibration
- Swap batteries and keep your lens calibration
- Auto-calibrate your lenses from the hand unit
- Manually set your lens end points using hand unit or fingerwheel
Speed is important when you're on set, so the last thing you want is a lens calibration slowing you down. If you don't own one already, packages start around $2,500, and you can add more accessories from there depending on your needs and whether you're operating a gimbal and want the additional fingerwheel.
If you already own one, you can head on over to this link to update your base station.
