The Magnus VT-200 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 6.6 lb, 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-200 Tripod System With 2-Way Pan Head is a stable video tripod made from anodized aluminum that can support loads up to 6.6 lb. The two-way pan head has auto-lock, quick-release mounting, and provides smooth motion for panning and tilting. The VT-200 tripod system weighs 3.45 lb (1.5 kg).
The 3-section leg design allows you to adjust the height of the tripod from 20 to 60", and a gear-driven center column gives you precise friction control when adjusting the height of this tripod. A mid-level spreader provides improved stability on uneven terrain. The VT-200 has separate pan and tilt locks and a bubble level for precision leveling, and offers a full 360° pan range.
The included quick-release plate features a standard 1/4"-20 mounting screw with a video pin. A carry case with a shoulder strap is included for storage and transport.
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.
