Magnus REX VT-5000 2-Stage Video Tripod with Fluid Head

The Magnus REX VT-5000 2-Stage Video Tripod with Fluid Head supports cameras and accessories weighing up to 17 pounds. Fluid HeadThe head features spring-loaded counterbalance with pan and tilt fluid drag. Tilt drag is variable and can be adjusted to provide more or less drag, allowing you to fine-tune the head to match the needs of the shot. The sliding balance camera plate features a spring-loaded locating pin and supports both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 camera tie-down screws (included). The camera plate features 3.25" of travel, providing a wide range of movement to balance your camera on the head for optimum operation.

Two 1/4"-20 threaded accessory mounting holes are integrated into the head, and they allow you to mount a variety of accessories, including articulating arms and mounting brackets. The head features two pan handle rosettes for left- or right-handed operation. One pan handle is included with the system and it includes a rosette washer that helps protect the rosettes from stripping. Tripod LegsThe included mid-level spreader is adjustable, allowing you to spread the legs for a more stable shot or draw them close to gain height. The legs can be closed with the spreader attached.

The legs feature independent leg spread and height adjustment, useful for working on even surfaces such as rocky terrain or stairs. The legs feature dual-spiked feet that provide solid purchase on soft surfaces when the legs are spread wide or extended to full height. The rubber feet attach to the spiked feet for working on delicate or hard surfaces. An elastic line with attached hook extends from the bottom of one of the legs, allowing you to secure the legs in a closed position for storage or transport.
