The Ultimate Compact Solution for Focus Pullers and Handheld Rigs

The ARRI Wireless Video Receiver WVR-1s brings uncompromising wireless monitoring to highly mobile production units. As a significantly smaller, lighter-weight alternative to the standard WVR-1, it is explicitly built to be mounted on hand-held director's monitors and focus puller setups without unbalancing the rig. By pairing seamlessly with your ARRI wireless ecosystem, it offers a high-performance video path that keeps camera assistants agile and physical builds exceptionally clean.

Zero-Latency Performance Under Rugged Conditions

In fast-paced filming environments, timing is everything. The WVR-1s operates with a near-zero latency of less than 1ms, feeding pristine HD-SDI video formats up to 1080p60 directly to your monitoring station. Encrypted with secure 128-bit AES protection, the transmission remains private and clear of interference. The entire unit is enclosed in a robust, weather-resistant aluminum housing designed to withstand temperature extremes from -20 °C to +45 °C, featuring integrated protective collars to shield fragile BNC and power connection pins from physical on-set impact.

Smart Dual-Powering and Clean Cable Management

Eliminate the mess of multiple hanging batteries on your handheld focus unit. The WVR-1s features a clever power-routing design that utilizes an integrated 12V power output. When paired with an optional battery adapter plate—such as V-Mount, Gold Mount, or ultra-compact micro form factors—you can draw from a single battery source to power both the receiver and your attached onboard monitor. This design slashes overall rig weight, minimizes cable mess, and avoids the common on-set delays caused by faulty power loops.

Universal Ecosystem Harmony

Whether grabbing a feed from a standalone ARRI WVT-1 transmitter or receiving signals natively from the built-in wireless radios of the ALEXA LF and ALEXA SXT W, the WVR-1s pairs rapidly and remains rock-solid. Firmware and system configurations are easily updated via a dedicated USB port using the ARRI Wireless Video Tool software, ensuring your receiver stays future-proof and reliable for years of professional production service.
