Introduction


Probe lenses are now available to compact digital camcorder users.

Innovision-Optics Presents the DV Probe Tubular Lens For DV/HDV Cameras. In the tradition of developing lenses for shooting the most miniscule of objects, Innovision proudly presents the DV Probe. The newest member of the Porbe lens family, the DV Probe attaches directly to the zoom lens of HD and SD camcorders with an easy-to-use support bracket.

The DV Probe is designed to accommodate interchangeable mount lenses for a variety of cameras, including the Sony HVR-Z1U, HDR-FX1, Panasonic HVX200/A, Canon XLH1, and other popular camcorders. Built with high-resolution glass elements and relay optics, the DV Probe offers remarkable sharpness and depth of field for extreme close-up shooting. Perfect for shooting the texture of an aspirin tablet or the hairs on a spider’s back.

Also designed to enable shooting from an ultra-low perspective, the DV probe comes with adaptable straight and 45 degree attachments.

These attachments have been used for dramatic effect on a variety of television shows.

 Completely waterproof, the DV Probe is also ideal for product/nature photography.
