Panasonic has announced the immediate availability of a five-meter extension unit for its VariCam 35 4K and VariCam HS camera/recorders. Capitalizing on the unique modular design of the new VariCams, with the respective camera heads dockable to a common recorder, the new extension cable permits operational separation of the camera head from the recorder and will increase the versatility of both models in situations requiring mobility, agility and reduced weight.

The company will also make a 20-meter extension unit. These cables will enhance the VariCams’ effectiveness in Steadicam, crane and jib work, stunt and aerial shots, and more.
