ARRI SXU 1
The ARRI SXU 1 Single Axis Unit is a compact hand unit for controlling one lens axis at a time. Available for rental in Berlin, it can be set up for focus, iris or zoom control and is often used as a separate iris controller for cinematographers, DITs or camera operators in professional lens control workflows.
The SXU 1 is useful when a production needs a dedicated single axis control alongside systems such as ARRI Hi 5 or WCU 4. It allows one person to control a specific lens function independently, for example subtle iris changes during a shot or zoom control in a more specialised setup.
As part of our wireless lens control rental in Berlin, the ARRI SXU 1 can be integrated into ARRI ECS workflows with compatible motors and radio systems depending on the camera package.
