The Wireless LANC Controller with VT-4000 Tripod and Dolly Kit from B&H pairs an aluminum tripod/pan-and-tilt head and dolly system with a wireless LANC controller for select Canon, Sony, and Panasonic cameras.
Trigger the start/stop functions on your camera and control zoom, focus, and iris settings with this Wireless LANC Controller for Sony, Canon & Select Panasonic Cameras from Magnus. Boasting a pressure-sensitive rocker that facilitates stable video capture while performing smooth zooming to achieve dynamic telephoto and wide-angle shots, the controller easily mounts on your pan handle or tripod via its integrated clamp.
The included 2.4 GHz wireless receiver inserts into your camera's remote or LANC port for reliable wireless connectivity, and the unit comes with a 3.3' long LANC remote cable with a 2.5mm connector as a wired option. It features an OLED display for quick verification of recording time, battery life, and connectivity status, and two separately available AAA batteries power it.
Note: The controller is only compatible with Panasonic cameras that use the LANC protocol.
The Magnus VT-4000 Tripod System with Fluid Head is a stable, sturdy video tripod made from anodized aluminum that can support loads up to 8.8 lb. Overall, this tripod offers many features that are usually only found on more expensive models. The two-way fluid head provides smooth operation, and it features a half ball mount with a diameter of 65mm, with left and right pan bar mounts. It comes supplied with one pan bar. In addition, unlike most other heads in its class, all the head controls are positioned on the left side of the head, which leaves your right hand free for the panning handle. The VT-4000 tripod system weighs 7.9 lb.
Its 2-stage leg design allows you to adjust the height of the tripod from 27.6 to 59". A mid-level spreader and passive counterbalance provide enhanced stability to the entire system. The VT-4000 also has separate pan and tilt locks, as well as a bubble level for precision leveling. The fixed counterbalance spring incorporated in the head will help with smoother tilt movements.
Its provided quick release plate features a standard 1/4"-20 mounting screw with a video pin, and it has a sliding range of +20/-25mm to enable travel capabilities, which is essential in balancing uneven configurations. The head's tilt angle is adjustable from +90 to -60°.
The Magnus DWF-2 Universal Tripod Dolly presents a simple, affordable way to put your tripod on wheels. The dolly features 2" ball-bearing metal/rubber wheels that feature revolving assemblies. That means you can steer your tripod along any line imaginable to capture a smooth tracking shot.
The DWF-2 dolly bears loads up to 33 lb and features adjustable clamps to lock just about any size of tripod foot into place securely. Mounting a tripod is easy: Just line up each tripod foot and twist the thumb screws to tighten each clamp.
Each leg bar extends up to 4.9" to accommodate tripods of various dimensions, and flip locks secure the extension. Fully extended, the dolly has a doorway width of 31". With step-on locks for each wheel, you can easily transform your rolling tripod into a sturdy lock-down mount for your camera.
Two of the legs fold down to create a compact package for transport – the dolly folds down to just 17 x 5".
