Ignite Digi has introduced Servo Link, an interface that translates Tilta Nucleus-M and Nucleus-M II focus, iris and zoom commands for industry-standard broadcast and cine servo lenses. The device targets mixed crews that want a conventional zoom demand without giving up Tilta motor control.
A camera operator can use a Canon or Fujinon-style demand for tactile zoom operation while another operator controls focus or iris through the Nucleus ecosystem. The connection can be cabled or wireless, making the concept relevant to gimbals, remote heads and compact live-camera builds.
The practical value is interoperability between control families that are common in different parts of production. Rather than replacing the lens demand or the FIZ system, Servo Link acts as a translation layer, potentially reducing bespoke wiring and one-off control compromises.
The published introduction does not provide a full compatibility matrix, command latency, power requirements, environmental rating or behaviour when wireless control is interrupted. Crews will need to test lens calibration, end stops, direction and fail-safe states before using it on a live or remotely mounted camera.
