7D zoom/focus remote

Do these exist? Not digging having to take all of my shots were I pull focus or zoom on the tripod into motion to stabilize my footage and was wondering if like a normal camcorder if a remote would control a DSLR lens' zoom and focus and if so what's a good buy?

Partial. You can get the cable remote that allows you to focus, then shoot. Similarly to how you use the standard shutter.

But zoom your lens? Nope, that's manual.

Focus/zoom are more or less manual only in film mode, but that doesn't mean it can't be automated. You can take something like a follow focus, attach a servo, and use a wireless controller of some sort, but it'll be a time consuming project. Trying to slowly work out the details on a build plan myself, hopefully I'll be able to tell you if it's practical in a month or two

I'm using OneOn's camera remote for ipod/iphone for my 5DMKII, the focus is pretty awesome.
