Versatile System Components HDLA-1500/HDLA-1505/HDLA-1507 - Maximizing Operability To meet the demand for operations that combine a portable camera with a large lens, Sony has developed highly sophisticated HDLA-1500 and HDLA-1505 Large Lens Adaptors to maximize the operability of HDC-2400, HDC-2500, and HDC-2570 cameras. Generally, setting up a portable camera to a large lens adaptor is a difficult task, especially fine-tuning the mechanical adjustments between each device. However, with the HDLA-1500 or HDLA-1505 Large Lens Adaptor, time-consuming adjustments and wiring are completely eliminated. Another convenient peripheral for the portable cameras, the HDLA-1507 Large Viewfinder Adaptor, is also available, enabling a large viewfinder to be used. Unique Interlocking Mechanism for Simple Operation HDLA-1500, HDLA-1505, and HDLA-1507 adaptors do not require any cable wiring. Utilizing an unprecedented interlocking mechanism, this solution passes through the power, video, and control signals directly from the portable camera to the HDLA Series adaptor. This unique mechanism also allows the portable camera to be attached and detached without removing large lenses. Furthermore, a lens can be removed even when the camera is mounted on the HDLA-1500 or HDLA-1505 adaptor. The interlocking mechanism therefore allows for astonishingly quick and smooth setup. Low-profile Design The low-profile design significantly improves your view, while also minimizing the parallax between the optical axis of the camera head and viewfinder.
