Pincher #Z-PNCH

View More Images

The Pincher is a universal HDMI cable restraint for DSLR's. It is the perfect solution for keeping your HDMI cable in place. It includes the pincher device and a mounting bar that will allow you to use it out of the box on the Zacuto Gorilla Plate or DSLR Baseplate. The mounting bar attaches to the Gorilla Plate or DSLR Baseplate by using the two allen screws that also attach the red thumb screw slider block to the baseplates (if you are familiar with mounting the Z-Finder Frame on the Gorilla Plate or DSLR Baseplate, the mounting bar is attached the same way).

The Pincher has horizonal adjustment as well as vertical adjustment so you can line the Pincher up to work on multiple DSLR cameras. To adjust horizontally or vertically, loosen the red thumb screws positioned at the bottom and/or side of the Pincher and slide; once positioned, tighten the red thumb screws.

The Pincher has many configurations to work with multiple cameras. It has been tested on the following cameras: Canon T2i, Canon 60D, Canon 5D, Canon 7D, Canon 1D, Lumix GH2, Nikon D3100, Nikon D7000 and Nikon D3s. It also works when using battery grips with the Canon 5D,7D and T2i. The Pincher will need to be configured differently depending on your camera. Please refer to the instruction sheet found Here

Please Note: We are still testing more cameras. We recommend the Pincher to be used with the Zacuto HDMI cable.

Check out this video from Rob at Spirit Juice Studios, a long time friend and customer. He knows Zacuto is worth its weight in gold - or in cameras!! Watch him hang his DSLR over a bridge with just our Pincher and an HDMI cable. Don't try this at home!

EVF Flip

The Zacuto EVF is a 3.2” high resolution monitor that is used in conjunction with all the Z-Finder models. The EVF is compatible with all cameras that have an HDMI output including the Panasonic AF-100, Sony F3, RED ONE, RED Scarlet and RED Epic. The EVF allows you to operate the DSLR camera or any camera with an HDMI port, with the correct form factor for video with the camera "in-line" to your rod system (the most stable way) and your eye in the Z-Finder offset. This is the way all film cameras and ENG video cameras were operated and we, at Zacuto, believe this should be the way DSLR cameras should be operated. It will enhance the stability, give you better resolution, allow you to get your eye where it most comfortably needs to be, enable low mode shooting, shorten your camera package, have your EVF in the back of a dolly or crane, detached from the rig for car shots and more.

The EVF Flip has a Z-Finder frame built into the unit that can be flipped open to 180 degrees. You can also pop off the Z-Finder and use the EVF as a monitor similar to the EVF Snap. You can use the Z-Finder Pro or Jr. on this model as well. This is essential when working handheld with a producer or director so that you can show them the shot without having to have them get their eye in the viewfinder. You just flip up and they can see the shot!
