Ambient's new Timecode & Sync cables

Ambient has expanded its Timecode & Sync cable range to accommodate new camera models and connectors.

With cameras such as the Sony FX3/FX30, Canon R5 C, DJI Osmso Action, etc. able to except timecode signals in different ways there was certainly a need for cables that allow you to do this.

LTC-OUT-USBC (for cameras that accept TC via USB-C – e.g. DJI Osmo Action)
