Tilta Side Focus Handle Run/Stop Cable for RED Camera CTRL Port

The Tilta RS-TA2-RD2 is a run/stop cable for the Side Focus Handle: one end sits in the handle, the other in the camera port, and the REC button on the handle starts and stops recording. This variant is made for RED cameras with a CTRL port. The cable carries only the run/stop command, no power and no video.

The Tilta RS-TA2-RD2 links the handle to the camera so that recording is started and stopped with a thumb from the handle, without reaching for the camera body. The handle is shared across the range; the cable is chosen by the camera port.

Run/stop from the handle for RED cameras with a CTRL port

One end of the cable plugs into the Side Focus Handle (Micro USB connector), the other into the camera (RED CTRL port). From then on the REC button on the handle starts and stops recording, and the operator neither lets go of the grip nor hunts for the button on the camera body. The cable carries a single signal — run/stop; it transmits no power, video or data. For another camera only the cable changes, the handle stays.

Tilta run/stop cables

A run/stop cable carries a single signal: start and stop recording. One end sits in a Tilta handle with a REC button or in the Nucleus focus system, the other in the camera port that accepts remote triggering — LANC, RED SYNC or CTRL, mini-USB on Canon DSLRs, Sony Multi, Hirose, Fischer or ARRI EXT. The cable is chosen by the handle × camera pair; this is one of the range.
