About Explorer
The MX-MAG is designed for iPhone 12 and later models with MagSafe, attaching magnetically so the phone can go on and off in a moment. It mounts to a tripod or rig by a 1/4-20 thread or directly in an Arca-compatible clamp, which suits many tripod heads without a separate plate. An adjustable cold shoe arm gives a place for a small microphone or LED light, and the phone can be used in landscape or portrait orientation for horizontal video or vertical social content.
Magnetic mounts depend on a good MagSafe connection. Remove thick or non-MagSafe cases, or use a MagSafe-compatible case, so the magnets seat fully. Keep the combined weight of the phone and anything on the cold shoe modest, and avoid long lever arms that add strain on the magnetic hold. For moving shots, on vehicles or in strong wind, add a safety strap or use a clamp-style holder instead. Check that your tripod head's clamp is Arca-compatible, or use the 1/4-20 thread with a plate.
Explorer questions
Which iPhones work with the Explorer MX-MAG?
Explorer lists the MX-MAG for iPhone 12 and later models with MagSafe. It attaches magnetically, so the phone needs a bare back or a MagSafe-compatible case. Standard cases without magnets will weaken the hold or stop it seating properly.
Can I mount the MX-MAG in an Arca-Swiss clamp?
Yes. Explorer lists mounting by a 1/4-20 thread or directly in an Arca-compatible clamp. That means it can go straight into many tripod heads and rig clamps without adding a separate quick-release plate.
Can I shoot vertical video with the MX-MAG?
Yes. The mount supports landscape and portrait orientation, so you can switch between horizontal video and vertical content for social platforms. Reposition the cold shoe arm so a microphone or light stays in the right place after rotating.
