"If you're filming with an Arri camera, then the Arri Hi-5 is one of the best choices. The top-of-the-line handheld unit integrates directly into the Arri system, allowing you to not only remotely control focus, iris, and zoom, but also alter most of the camera's internal settings without ever touching the camera itself. Additionally, the Arri Hi-5 is outfitted with brand-new features, such as the nifty tail slate mode that asks for confirmation before cutting."
