We have just added the new Tilta Nucleus M II wireless lens control system to our rental lineup here at Cinemachine in Perth, Western Australia. Building on the success of the original Nucleus system, the Nucleus II offers a refined, more powerful solution for precise focus, iris and zoom control on professional film and commercial productions.
The Tilta Nucleus M II is designed as a modular, scalable wireless follow focus system, capable of controlling up to three lens motors with high accuracy and minimal latency. It features a newly designed hand unit with improved ergonomics, longer battery life and a brighter, clearer display, making it easier to operate in both studio and on-location environments. The system supports lens mapping, allowing AC's to quickly set focus limits and maintain repeatable, accurate focus pulls throughout a shoot.
One of the key advantages of the Nucleus M II is its versatility. The motors are compact yet powerful, making them suitable for everything from lightweight mirrorless setups to fully built cinema camera rigs. The hand unit is also compatible with previous generation Tilta focus motors. The wireless range and stability have also been improved over the original Nucleus, providing reliable performance even in busy RF environments.
From a practical on-set perspective, the Nucleus M II integrates seamlessly into modern production workflows. It supports multiple control options such as the included hand unit or operator hand grips and can be expanded for multi-operator use, making it well suited to narrative, commercial and documentary productions where precise lens control is essential. The overall build quality feels robust and production-ready, while still remaining compact enough for fast-paced shoots.
Overall, the Tilta Nucleus M II is an excellent wireless lens control solution for a wide range of productions, from independent films through to higher-end commercial work. For crews looking to rent a reliable, flexible follow focus system in Perth or across Western Australia, the Nucleus II is a strong choice.
