The Magnus VT-400 Tripod Kit with Pan Handle Video Remote has been assembled by B&H to provide you with a stable anodized aluminum video tripod that can support loads up to 15 lb and has a height range of 22 to 64", as well as a remote control for select Sony cameras or camcorders. Pan and tilt to follow your on-camera talent or create visually stunning smooth, cinematic shots to immerse your audience in your film. The remote control allows you to start/stop the camera and control the zoom for smooth servo-controlled moves. The remote can be used while mounted on the tripod pan handle or held freely and not attached to the tripod.
The Magnus VT-400 Aluminum Tripod System with 2-Way Fluid Pan Head is a durable, stable video tripod made from anodized aluminum that supports loads up to 15 lb and features a versatile 2-way fluid pan head. The head provides smooth panning and tilting motion, and it has auto-lock and quick release mounting.
The 3-section leg design with a variable mid-level spreader allows you to adjust the height of the tripod from 22 to 64" with great stability at any height. A gear-driven center column gives you precise friction control when adjusting the height. The VT-400 has separate pan and tilt locks and a bubble level for precision leveling, and it offers a full 360° pan range. The included quick release plate features a standard 1/4"-20 mounting screw with a video pin. The VT-400 tripod system weighs 5.95 lb.
More than just a pan handle-mounted zoom control, the Magnus Pan Handle Video Remote for Select Sony Cameras and Camcorders provides access to camera functions such as photo and video start/stop, grid lines, zoom control, shutter lock, and your camera's sleep mode. Mounting the remote to your tripod's pan handle allows you to access these features while panning or tilting the camera/camcorder on your tripod.
The included pan handle allows you to attach the remote to select Magnus tripods, for easier operation of your camera's advanced focus without having to use a second hand to manipulate the camera while operating from a tripod, which can result in shaky or blown shots. The included 31.5" long cable that connects the remote to your camera enables you to operate the remote off of a pan handle if desired and the included lanyard allows you to hang the remote from a stand or other support.
- The remote is compatible with most Sony cameras that have a multiterminal port, such as the SOHDRCX405, as well as Select Sony cameras and lenses with electronic zoom capabilities like the ZV-1.
- The handle is compatible with the Magnus VT-100, VT-200, VT-300, and VT-350.
