How to install AXIS TW1106 Magnet Mount for Camcorder
- Identify a clean, flat ferrous surface on your rig, set, or support where you want the camcorder mounted. Ensure there are no loose debris or dirt that could compromise grip.
- Position the TW1106 so the magnetic face rests squarely against the metal surface. Avoid skewed alignment that could reduce holding strength or interfere with the camera’s balance.
- Press the mount firmly onto the chosen surface to engage the magnetic hold. Verify that the magnet seating is secure by applying a gentle outward pull at the camera mount point.
- Attach your camcorder to the mount using the standard 1/4"-20 mounting thread or the appropriate quick-release plate compatible with your rig. Tighten securely to prevent any unwanted movement.
- Conduct a brief test shoot to confirm stability. If needed, add a safety tether or secondary strap for added security, especially in high-motion scenes or outdoor environments.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: Will the AXIS TW1106 magnet mount affect my camcorder’s electronics or sensors? A: No. The magnet mount is designed to hold the camcorder externally on ferrous surfaces without interfering with camera electronics. It’s intended for stable, external mounting rather than proximity to sensitive internal components.
- Q: What surfaces can I use with this magnet mount? A: The TW1106 is optimized for ferrous metal surfaces. For non-metal surfaces, consider using alternative mounting solutions or securing the mount with compatible adapters where appropriate.
- Q: Is the magnet mount weatherproof? A: The mount features a durable, wear-resistant finish suitable for indoor and outdoor use. While it withstands normal weather exposure, always protect electronic gear from prolonged exposure to rain or immersion.
- Q: Can I mount a large or heavy camcorder with the TW1106? A: The TW1106 is designed for standard camcorder weights and configurations commonly used with 1/4"-20 threads. Always ensure the surface and mount hold fast and verify the rig’s balance before shooting. If in doubt about weight limits, test in a controlled environment first.
- Q: How many degrees of tilt and rotation does it offer? A: The TW1106 supports flexible positioning to help you frame shots from multiple angles. Precise articulation will depend on the specific rig and mounting surface; adjust gradually and secure with any existing clamps or quick-release plates you use.
- Q: Is installation reversible? A: Yes. The magnet-based hold allows quick repositioning or removal when you’re ready to switch setups or move to a different shooting location.
