UMC-4 on Sony Venice

Hi there,

I am going on a shoot in a few weeks and have a doubt about the workflow between the ARRI UMC-4 with the Sony Venice. We are going to be using Arri control systems and use the UMC-4 for iris control with Arri SXU-1 and CML motors and Panavision . ¿Is there any way we can have iris display on metadata and monitors?

One cool feature is the IP streaming of Lens Data with the UMC-4's latest software update. This allows for full LDS data to be streamed "live" over its Ethernet connection. This data can be monitored via a web interface or be integrated directly into the Unreal Engine with a new plug-in now available. This is independent of any camera as it is handled inside the UMC-4. This is great for virtual production. Unfortunately I would not hold you breath for Sony opening up any data embedding into their cameras from third-party devices, especially to a competitor that makes competing camera systems.
