Summary of Contents for VARIZOOM VZ-MC100

  • Page 1 VZ-MC100 Pan and Tilt Controls Diagram...
  • Page 2 1. Bolt the base plate of the VZ-MC100 head securely to jib or tripod mount. The base is designed to mount on a flat surface or 100mm bowl, so an adapter may be necessary for other sizes (consult jib or tripod maker).
  • Page 3 5. Engage the brass motor gears to the black arm gears and tighten. Be sure the levers are pointing away from the rotating arm. -NOTE: Once tightened, you can adjust the position of the lever by simply pulling out on it and then rotating the lever until it faces away. This will NOT loosen the fastener.
  • Page 4 If the tripod/MC100 mount were suddenly jarred or disrupted, there is a possibility the mounting bolt might bend or shear, so be very cautious about this type of setup. VARIZOOM DOES NOT RECOMMEND MOUNTING THE MC100 ON ANY TRIPOD OTHER THAN A 100 mm BOWL TRIPOD.
  • Page 5 Since professional shoulder-mount cameras typically use a quick-release tripod plate of some sort, it is important to note that in some cases the friction between the camera’s mounting plate and the mounting plate of the VZ-MC100 may not be sufficient to ensure a secure mount when tilting. You may want to line one or both of the surfaces with electrical tape, gaffer’s tape, or something to provide a more slip-resistant contact.
