Which lens control systems are compatible with the cmotion Cinefade VariND?

The Cinefade VariND is only compatible with the cmotion cPRO lens control system. Compatibility with the ARRI Hi-5 system is planned for a future software update or licence key but as of May 2023 there is no specific date for this yet. Sign up to our newsletter for updates and be amongst the first to hear about this much requested feature.

The cmotion Cinefade VariND can also be used as a standalone filter without the need for a LCS. The ND value and polarisation angle are controlled via two buttons on the Motorised Polariser and an OLED display reads out the current ND value or polarisation angle. An LBUS to power (D-tap or RS) cable is needed to power the unit.

There are no plans yet to introduce compatibility with Preston, Tilta, Chrosziel or other LCS manufacturers.
