Canon MS-22 Studio Conversion Kit. This item is brand new in the box and appears never to have been used. The Operation Manual (a two page leaflet) states:

"The Canon MS-22 Studio Conversion Kit supplies all the accessories necessary to convert cameras mounted with J13X II series, J15X series or PH13X lenses into "rear view" TV cameras that can be mounted on a tripod."

Components Provided:

1 Z-9M Servo Zoom Control Unit
1 F-Controller Flexible Focus Control Unit
1 FM-1 Focus Outlet Unit
2 Pan Bar Clamps
1 8-P Connecting Cable
1 Flexible 36" Cable

The leaflet indicates that there is a case included, but I don't see it. I don't know if this will work with newer Canon Broadcast and Communications Pro Video lenses such as YJ12X, YJ19X, YH12X, YH16X, or YH19X. Visit http://www.usa.canon.com/html/industrial_bctv/servo.html to see how this attaches to the lens. The asking price is less than what Canon would charge just for the empty box!! Check what the new ones are selling for. I found an online retailer, B & H Photo, listing the newer version of this kit for US$2,353.50. Please email me at tom_r@sympatico.ca with any questions or requests for pictures. US$300.00 which includes insured shipping to anywhere in North America.
