Sony DVF-EL1 OLED Electronic Viewfinder for FX5
The Sony VMC-BNCU1 Timecode Adapter Cable is a dedicated adapter cable designed to bring professional multi-camera timecode synchronization to the Sony FX5 Cinema Camera and compatible Sony cameras. Featuring a compact 7.9-inch (20 cm) flexible design, the cable connects directly to the camera’s dedicated USB-C terminal on one end and provides a standard BNC female connector on the other. This enables seamless, frame-accurate timecode jam-syncing from external timecode generators and master clocks—such as Ambient, Tentacle Sync, or Deity systems—streamlining multi-camera and external audio workflows in post-production.
Frame-Accurate Timecode Synchronization
For production environments utilizing multiple cameras or dual-system sound recording, maintaining tight timecode sync is critical for efficient editing and multi-cam assembly. The VMC-BNCU1 bridges the camera’s digital internal timecode architecture with industry-standard BNC timecode equipment, allowing shooters to easily lock timecode across all devices on set and eliminate manual sync drift.
Rugged, Streamlined Build
Engineered specifically for field and rig-mounted cinema applications, the 7.9-inch cable length keeps your setup tidy without excessive slack or cable clutter around the camera body. The lightweight, durable molding protects both terminal ends from strain while mounted on shoulder rigs, gimbals, or tripod systems.
