Working with Lens Tags

Both CTRL.1 and CTRL.3 controllers feature lens tagging support, which enables users with multiple lens maps (10 or more) to quickly filter and identify which ones they need to be using. Lens tags can be customized and assigned to any lens map you choose. For example, if your production is using two prime lenses and one zoom, but you have 40 lens maps stored, you can assign the same tag to those three lens maps so they can be easily filtered. Individual lens maps can have multiple tags assigned to them if they are going to be used on more than one project or identified. NOTE: Lens filtering in the Lens Map SELECT, EDIT and DELETE menus is only active when 10 or more lens maps are stored.

MANAGING LENS TAGS

1. Navigate to LENS>LENSMAP>TAGS. 
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. Select +ADD TAG to create a name for the lens tag.
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. Navigate to LENSMAP>CREATE.
   
   
   Create your lens map(s) if you haven’t done so already. When you create a lens map, you will be prompted to select a tag.
   
   
   
   If you already have your lens maps stored, navigate to LENSMAP>EDIT, then select the lens map you want to assign a lens tag to. 
   
   
   
4. Select LENS TAGS from the EDIT LENS MAP menu.
   
   
   The controller will indicate if you have previously assigned a lens tag to the lens map. If a lens tag hasn’t been assigned, select +ASSIGN TAG.
   
   
   
5. Select a lens tag.
   
   
   
   
   
6. Press the MENU button to return to the previous menu, then select SAVE to save your changes.
