[photo-3d] Genlocking two miniDV cameras via LANC - is it possible?

Hi All

I am about to begin experiments with shooting stereo movies with two 
Canon MV3 (also known as Elura) miniDV cameras.

Problem is to syncronise zoom and start/stop. Is it possible to set 
up the cameras in a master/slave configuration via the LANC 
interface - and thus having the slave camera do whatever the master 
does?

Or does anybody know of an externac LANC controller that could do the 
job? (i.e. controlling TWO cameras at the same time).

Any help would be appreciated.

Alex
