Overview
The Magnus REX VT-5000-CM video tripod is designed with professional features for videographers who need a stable, lightweight, and smooth camera support system. This tripod features carbon fiber tandem-telescoping legs with a single action leg lock allowing you to rapidly extend all three leg sections at once. Sitting on top is a two-way fluid head housing a quick-release plate with a clip-in ability for speedy camera attachments. Flip one of the locks and extend the leg from a minimum height of 32 inches to a maximum height of 64.5 inches. With another quick flip you lock the leg’s position. Constructed with sturdy carbon fiber for lightweight rigidity and stability, this stand supports up to 17 pounds while offering enhanced vibration resistance in demanding environments. The adjustable mid-level spreader adds stiffness and allows independent leg angles for setting up on uneven surfaces. There are removable rubber feet and dual spikes so you can use the tripod outdoors on loose rocks or indoors on smooth flooring. The video head offers 2-way fluid action with an additional tilt-drag adjustment so you can capture steady and controlled pan and tilt movements for shake-free professional videos. Leveling your head is a snap, thanks to the 75 mm ball with an ergonomic leveling knob and the integrated bubble level.
Features
Lightweight Construction
Carbon fiber provides durable and stable legs so you can have a lightweight and strong camera setup. Maintain the integrity of your videos with increased vibration resistance as well as temperature resistance, soaking up unwanted shakes and keeping your setup steady in windy situations. The reduced weight over aluminum legs means you can carry the tripod farther with less strain on your back. Carbon fiber is also less susceptible to corrosion and rust, which helps when out in inclement weather.
Single-Action Leg Lock
With a single flip of the leg lock you can simultaneously deploy the three-leg sections and securely lock them in place. This offers a speedy setup with an extendable height up to 64.5 inches, or you can collapse the tripod down to 32 inches. No longer do you have to mess with a lock for each section.
2-Way Fluid Head
Easily and smoothly adjust the direction of your camera with the 2-way fluid head. The fluid head delivers uniform and even panning and tilting for seamless camera motion, making your video look steady and professional. Attach the pan handle to either side of the head with the double rosettes. And to make sure everything is level before recording, the 75 mm leveling ball includes a simple to use adjustment knob and viewable bubble level.
Adjustable Tilt Drag
The VT-5000-CM’s fluid head delivers uniform and even tilting for smooth camera motion, so your video will look steady and professional. With adjustable tilt drag control, you can dial in the exact amount of resistance.
Spring-Loaded Counterbalance
The spring-loaded counterbalance allows extra smooth tilt movements by providing tension resistance. This resistance helps balance a heavy camera so when you start filming your tilt speed is consistent.
75 mm Leveling Head
The 75 mm bowl is the professional’s choice when shooting with a large and heavy camera. It securely holds and balances video cameras up to 17 pounds while still providing smooth rotation.
Quick-Release Plate
The quick-release plate allows you to easily mount and dismount your camera by locking or unlocking it in and out of the head. A safety lock with push-button security prevents the quick-release lever from accidentally unlocking when removing or tilting your camera.
Camera Clip-In
Besides sliding your camera in and out of the head with the quick-release plate, you can simply clip it into the head. This is time saving when switching from handheld to shooting with the stabilized tripod without having to line up the plate and head grooves.
Mid-Level Locking Spreader
The mid-level spreader allows you to independently adjust the angle of each leg. This is especially helpful when setting up on uneven surfaces like rocks or stairs where you might need to extend one leg’s angle out wider for more stability.
Spiked and Rubber Feet
For added stability when placing the tripod on uneven or slippery surfaces, you can choose between removable rubber or dual-spiked feet. Use the spikes outdoors on rocky terrain and use the rubber feet to shoot indoors on smooth flooring.
Carrying Case
A padded carrying case shields your tripod from bumps and scratches while you haul it to your next shoot. The adjustable shoulder strap and an interior pocket allow you to quickly throw the case over your shoulder and store extra cords and accessories.
