FU-2000 Color Viewfinder Unit

When the FU-2000 is connected to the color viewfinder socket of the camcorder, it is possible to review the on screen picture without having to be next to the camcorder. Also, by connecting the FU-2000 to the optional ZR-2000 Remote Zoom Controller you can have complete control of the main operations of the

camcorder while reviewing the on-screen picture without touching the camcorder.

This mark identifies genuine Canon video accessories. When you use Canon video equipment, we recommend Canon-brand accessories or products bearing the same mark.
