Tripod, Head & LANC Zoom/Focus Controller Kit for Sony/Canon Cameras Overview

Set up your small Canon or Sony camcorder or DSLR camera with remote control using this Libec Tripod, Head & LANC Zoom/Focus Controller Kit put together by B&H. This kit includes a set of 3-stage tripod legs, a TH-X tripod head, and a ZFC-L LANC focus/zoom controller for select Sony and Canon LANC cameras.

The tripod system supports a rig weighing up to 9 lb and provides a 30 to 62" height range. The wired controller allows you to remotely control the focus, zoom, and REC start/stop of LANC-enabled cameras.

Libec TH-X Head and Tripod System

Provide stable support to your small camcorder, DSLR, or mirrorless camera with the Libec TH-X Tripod System. Mounted atop a two-stage (3-segment) tripod with a 65mm bowl, the TH-X head provides a sliding balance platform for optimal pan/tilt performance for loads up to 9 pounds. The drag and counterbalance are fixed, and both the pan and tilt can be locked. Rosettes on either side of the head can hold the pan bar for right and left-handed operators.

While the 65mm ball base offers quick-leveling capabilities when used with a tripod, it has a trick up its sleeve. The bottom of the base is flattened and has a 3/8"-16 thread in the center, enabling it to be secured to flat-mount accessories such as sliders, jibs, and more without unwieldy bowl adapters.

The included tripod offers a 30-62" height range for both lower and higher-angled shots. Thumbscrew-tightened leg sections secure the tripod, and the mid-level spreader provides stability and quick operation, even on uneven terrain and flooring.

Libec ZFC-L LANC Zoom and Focus Control for Select Sony/Canon Cameras

The Libec ZFC-L LANC Zoom and Focus Control enables remote REC start/stop, zoom, and focus control for LANC-equipped Canon and Sony camcorders (certain models may have limited or no compatibility). It connects to the camcorder via a 2.3' long cable terminated with a 2.5mm sub mini plug. The zoom speed can be adjusted by tilting the rocker. Its inverted switch allows you to control the zoom direction. The control unit features a clamp that easily mounts onto pipes up to 1.8" in diameter.

  • Zoom speed can be adjusted by tilting the rocker
  • The Inverted Switch is a new function that changes the zoom direction when the control is attached faced down
  • Smooth and precise zoom controls with a smart double-sided rocker design enables you to have smooth and precise zoom controls
  • The clamp can be attached to round tubes up to 45mm in diameter, wide enough to fit the TH-M monopod grip

What is the weight limit of the legs alone? If the head is removed could you mount a 25lb jib arm?
Asked by: Zachary
The manufacturer does not publicly list a weight capacity on these legs individually, but we would not recommend using these legs with a device that weighs 25lb.

Is there a recommendation for some good suction cups that I can use with such a tripod? (I got 3 cats, they like to play with everything, I don't want to see my camera on the ground ;)
Asked by: Hetz
I am sorry to say we do not have suction cups for tripods like this. Your best option would be to fold up and store the tripod when not in use.
