Introducing the Nucleus-M II Wireless Lens Control System

Ultimate Kit Contents

This Nucleus-M II Ultimate Kit includes a FIZ handwheel controller, lanyard, ARRI rosette adapter, one 0.5 MOD gear, two 0.8 MOD gears, one electronic focus disk, five standard focus disks, two motors, left and right handgrips, 15 and 19mm rod mounts, baby pin and hand-unit monitor mounts, 7-pin and D-Tap cables, and a waterproof hard case for protecting the system in storage and transit.

Key System Improvements

Familiar Operating Ecosystem

Seamless integration with the original Nucleus-M removes the need for existing users to learn an entirely new system. The updated model preserves the first version's damping adjustment and menu shortcut layout.

Enhanced Handwheel Unit

  • The handwheel adds adjustable tension and integrated lens mapping, while clearly presenting focus, iris, and zoom information in as many as four locations.
  • Four available control methods consist of the wheel, rocker, slider, and dial.
  • On select cameras, you can operate settings that include white balance, ISO, and shutter speed.

Electronic Focus Marking Disk

  • The new electronic marking disk supports accurate focus pulls with the Nucleus-M II, including in lower-light environments.
  • Remove this detachable ring whenever you prefer to use physical focus markings.

Expanded 2.4" Touchscreen

Quickly reach focus, aperture, ISO, and other controls through the new 2.4" color touchscreen.

Reengineered Lens Motors

The updated lens motors feature high torque, a simplified interface, color-coded LED indicators, and a compact body ideal for handheld, gimbal, and drone operation.

Revised Algorithms

  • The new PID 2.0 (Proportional Integral Derivative) algorithm gives the Nucleus-M II a rapid 0.02-second response while maintaining smooth adjustments without stutter or delay.
  • Using the system with its handwheel enables operation across up to four channels.
  • Simple pairing with stabilizers such as the DJI RS 2 reduces the time needed for setup.
  • Gears can be replaced rapidly because of the modular construction.
  • Single-rod mounts for both 15 and 19mm rods are included.

Professional System Design

Four Independent Control Channels

  • In addition to focus, iris, and zoom, the Nucleus-M II provides a fourth channel for geared filters, including Tilta's variable ND for the Mirage Pro Matte Box.
  • Remote ND operation permits exposure changes in real time, which is valuable when filming complex dolly moves or working with handheld rigs, gimbals, and stabilizers.

Ergonomically Designed Handgrips

  • Configure the ergonomic handgrips for optimal comfort and transition easily between primary and secondary controls.
  • The Nucleus-M II can be arranged as a top handle, used in handheld mode, or incorporated into a stabilizer setup.

Sony L-Series Type Battery Support

The handwheel accepts commonly available Sony L-Series type batteries, which may already be part of your equipment package and provide extended runtimes.

Recallable Setting Presets

As many as 128 data presets can be saved on the Nucleus-M II handwheel controller, allowing settings to be retrieved quickly with a touch.

Safeguards Against Power Loss

Following an outage, power-loss protection preserves both the MARK point and RANG memory setting.

Enhanced Operational Control

Multipoint Collaboration

Multi-control adjustment of camera and lens-motor settings allows either individual operators or production teams to fine-tune every FIZ parameter with the Nucleus-M II.

Wider Compatibility

Supports Multiple Equipment Ecosystems

  • Compatibility with Tilta and DJI ecosystems allows seamless use of compatible hand units.
  • Tilta compatibility includes:
  • First-generation Nucleus M lens control motors.
  • Nucleus Nano lens control motors.
  • DJI compatibility is also provided.
  • The integrated DJI RS protocol enables direct operation of DJI lens motors through a DJI RS stabilizer.

Versatile Configuration Options


Left- or Right-Hand Operation with Robust Channels

  • The detachable handwheel and thumb module make the Nucleus-M II easy to configure for left-handed use.
  • Use the included baby pin and monitor brackets to install the system on a C-stand, camera cart, or handheld rig.
  • More robust channels deliver a stronger and more stable signal for accurate focus operation.

Additional Capabilities

  • Lens-motor LEDs on the Nucleus-M II can be dimmed to remove potential distractions from sets operating at lower light levels.
  • Carry the Ultimate Kit in either the soft carrying bag or the rugged waterproof hard case.
