HORSEMAN ELECTRICAL GRIP

[Paulo Carvalho]

I bought one Horseman VHR with a electrical grip.
I d'ont understand as the electrical grip wok.
Somebody can help me?

In the top it has one piston with a white tip and the other is black.
It moves for a side to the other.
What utility has ?

It has 3 contacts , a green a yellow and a red.
When I use one or use another one?

It has a small white button in the back. What's it purpose?

It has a big white button in the front.
I think that is the trigger. It's true?

Sorry for the poor english.

Paulo, The electrical grip was made for the ER-1 and not the VHR. The necessary wiring is missing from the VHR and so the features of the grip will be useless with that camera. I don't even think there is a way to attach the grip to the VHR to just use it as a handle. Sorry I don't have more encouraging news for you.

Thanks for the fast reply.

However I think that a lapse can exist.

Can you check the camera user manual photo?

Very thanks,

I looked at the manual and it appears that the grip pictured on the VHR is different from the electrical grip in my Horseman catalog #2. I have never seen this type of grip and can only suggest that you contact Schneider Optics, the US distributor for Horseman cameras to see if they can help.

Paulo,

You need the special connecting cord which is provided with a solenoid which is inserted in the release socket on the lens board.

If you can wait I can email you a copy of the grip manual.
