Introducing the Mutiny R/S Cable for Nikon ZR

The Mutiny R/S Cable for Nikon ZR is a professional accessory designed for Run/Stop (R/S) control of compatible Nikon cameras via FIZ systems or R/S buttons using a Fischer 3 interface . This cable allows you to start and stop recording directly from an external controller, without manually manipulating the camera.

Specifically developed for the Nikon ZR, Z50 II and Z5 II, this cable ensures reliable and clean integration in broadcast, lightweight cinema or documentary setups.

How the Mutiny R/S Cable Works for Nikon ZR

The Mutiny R/S Cable is a Fischer 3 female to 3.5 mm TRRS. It connects directly to the headphone jack of compatible Nikon cameras and allows you to send a Run/Stop from any Fischer 3 FIZ or Fischer 3 R/S button.

This solution is ideal for setups where the camera is mounted on a rig, stabilizer or remote support, making direct access to the record button inconvenient.

Compatibility and integration

The cable is compatible exclusively with the Nikon ZR, Z50 II and Z5 II. It has been designed to work with FIZ units and Fischer 3 Bolt-On R/S buttons, ensuring stable and reliable communication for triggering recording.

Its compact pigtail of approximately 0.10 m limits bulk on the rig and reduces the risk of cable tearing or twisting.

Usage limitations

When using the Mutiny R/S Cable for Nikon ZR, the camera’s headphone jack is dedicated entirely to R/S control. Therefore, it is not possible to monitor audio through headphones while the camera is in use. Using a headphone splitter is not compatible and does not allow combining audio monitoring and Run/Stop control.

Practical use cases

Camera control on a rig or stabilizer

The cable allows remote recording to be triggered from a FIZ controller, without directly touching the camera mounted on a complex rig.

Broadcast or documentary filming

In a professional configuration, the external Run/Stop control improves execution speed and reduces handling errors.

Use with remote R/S button

Combined with a Fischer 3 R/S button, the cable offers a simple and reliable triggering mechanism for camera operators.
