Manfrotto 522AV – Coiled LANC to Sony AV/R Adapter

The Manfrotto 522AV is a compact spiral adapter that converts the standard LANC connector on a Manfrotto remote control to the 10-pin Sony AV/R camcorder interface. This allows you to use a compatible remote control with a camcorder equipped with an AV/R Remote connector without having to replace the entire control system. The cable is 20 cm long, weighs only 15 g, and its coiled design minimizes excess length at the tripod head. The manufacturer also included it in the Manfrotto 585LNC kit. Before ordering, you must verify that the camera actually uses a supported 10-pin AV/R Remote port and that the remote control has the corresponding LANC connection.
