What is the 4D IP Joystick Controller?
Beyond pan, tilt and zoom, the G4 reaches the settings normally buried in a camera menu: iris, focus, white balance and exposure, adjustable live. Speed is variable on the fly. Buttons glow for dark control positions, nine quick-preset keys sit under the hand, and configurations import and export over IP so a replacement unit can be restored rather than rebuilt.
