Tilta Announces Upgraded Nucleus Nano II for Camera Operators and Videographers

Tilta, a leading manufacturer of camera accessories, has announced the release of the Nucleus Nano II, the latest addition to their line of wireless focus control systems. The Nucleus Nano II is an upgrade to the popular Nucleus Nano, providing video professionals with even more control over their lenses. It's also ideal for use by camera teams, allowing multiple camera operators to control their lenses wirelessly from a single hand unit.


The Nucleus Nano II is a compact and lightweight system that can be attached to any camera rig. It consists of a hand unit and a motor that can be mounted on a camera lens. The hand unit communicates wirelessly with the motor, allowing the camera operator to control the focus, zoom, and aperture of the lens remotely.

The hand unit of the Nucleus Nano II has also been upgraded. It now features a larger and more responsive focus wheel, as well as a new OLED display that provides more detailed information about the lens settings.
