Questions & Answers

The mounting plate for the camera can be tilted independently, can it not?

In order to keep the camera level, the plate slides into the mount and adjusts relative to the up and down motion of the jib arm. You need a video head that has a 78mm ball mount in order to tilt or pan the video camera. A ball mount head from a Cayer tripod is what I use. In addition to using the same head, I also use the Imorden camera slider without the ball mount.

A mounting plate gets stuck and won't move in order to stabilize the camera. How can I tell if my piece is defective or if I did ?

It is possible to move the mounting plate a limited distance for minor adjustments before it can be locked in the desired position. Using a tripod with a ball-type head is the best option if you need more flexibility for the camera A ball can be mounted in the jib arm An electric socket for mounting.

A good price for what you get
5/5

Shoots coming from 8ft up to ground level were necessary. We were unable to set up the Steadicam to take both high and low mode shots on the same setup, the vertical sliders were not set up correctly and the handheld was In this case, it is obvious that a crane is needed, but our crane was able to reach a height of 15ft. A small space was too small for it. Many of the small cranes were incapable of handling the 10-ton cranes An 18lb camera rig we have.
After much consideration, we decided that this unit's design would be satisfactory. Our crane was barely big enough to fit our needs with a liquid (not shown in the photo). A smooth action and weight handling make it ideal for moving heavy objects. Any crane requires practice to operate, but this unit does the job well.
We'll be using these materials on the set of our upcoming show. There has to be a right way.
It is very well made, portable, and easy to install. In addition to the SteadiCam, it can be mounted to a moving crane for continuous tracking. Tango has many similarities with that. A cradle under the slung for better balance and control was installed. Yes, I agree. I strongly recommend this book.

The price is great for the quality you get
4/5

After spending quite a while looking for these items, I found them. A "jib". It took me a lot of digging on the internet since I am not a camera person or a production person. It was only after searching for the term "jib" that I found this product. I have the Neewer light soft boxes - they have an interesting look. Attached is a photo of what I mean They were unsure about their jib and were hesitant to try it. They are rather fragile and their light soft boxes are flimsy The jibs are still affordable, like this one. Despite the fact that the jib was the cheapest that I saw on Amazon, I found mixed reviews that talked about However, I went ahead and purchased it and I am blown away by how well it is made! Despite its thinness, I was able to hold my Sony A6300 with no problem. There is a very strong feeling of stability and firmness to the metal It's completely different from the light boxes they sell. There is one thing I don't like about it, though, and that is that some of the tightening bolts don't get as tight as they should. If you give the hinge a push, the hinge will still move if you tighten the tightening bolt all the way. However, overall, the price is great for what you get.

Jib Arm is going to be a whole lot of fun for me! There are several ways to attach a camera to the tripod mounts, tripod or light stands, and so on
5/5

This product is of a high quality with solid metal construction, good fittings, and lots of mounting options. I like the little details like the bubbles It is incredibly easy to get this set up with levels. As opposed to another camera I own, the counterweight is screwed onto the unit, and the place that it attaches is very reinforced with thick metal (no more accidently dropping my camera to the ground due to a weight falling One of the best features is the ability to use this on a regular basis The poles should be positioned in front. As a result, I can aim at a specific spot before pulling my trigger -away shot with the camera still aimed near the original position (please see the last 2 images to see how the head is pointed way down in both the up- and the down- shot It is horizontal and at an angle). Putting this into shots provides a great deal of flexibility. There is one issue I have with the bag - it is All the parts have to be disassembled so they can be returned to their It would be much easier if the gear could be stored and I could set it up quickly The first tip I would give is to use a heavy-duty magnifying glass. The lightstand should be a heavy duty one with a reversible spigot mount, A heavy duty tripod is much more expensive and less portable than a light weight one. My light stand has a top that can be quickly removed to remove the spigot By doing this, I was able to use a 3/8 mounting stud to connect my A hand.

The results are very smooth, and if you practice you will be able to produce very nice ones
5/5

Well, if you are a videographer or filmmaker, then you know that What are your plans for the crane? Will you be using it Cranes aren't the best choice when the shot counts, but when it counts, they're the best. Using this crane is a good idea. The shooting process is really smooth and you can produce a very nice shot with practice. Be careful not to put your fingers between the bars as you move up and down, the gap will close. In spite of that, setting it up is easy The crane must be locked onto the tripod first, then the camera is attached, but nothing is screwed down yet. Place the counterweights in the backing and ensure the crane Make sure you adjust the 4 nobs at the front so that your camera is at a 90-degree angle and voila, you are all set. stated above, it takes a lot of practice to become an expert, so don't expect to be one right away. With some practice, I am sure you will love it just as much as I do, and for the price? Yeah, it is well worth considering.

An excellent budget crane
5/5

It is a great value for the price. Its fluidity and responsiveness make it a joy to use. As well as the price, it is great. If you wish to use this, you'll need a high quality (sturdy) tripod There's just no way you can use this crane with a cheap It has been tested with both the Panasonic GH5 and Canon C100 without a problem. The only criticism I would have would be that the case the CD comes in is very small and difficult to get back in again. Additionally, it takes a bit of time and thought to put together, but the instructions are okay.

I recommend him to anyone who wants to shoot an event
5/5

It's the perfect set up for me when I shoot weddings with this jib arm crane. With this dollie, I can film both inside and outside and I can get great range and motion while capturing As I was concerned about, the arm lowers and raises smoothly and keeps my camera held up and safely mounted, which is what I was most concerned about. Overall, this is a great product! For long distance shooting, the arms can be stretched to enable the shooter to reach incredible lengths. I find it to be a good fit for all of my I would recommend this service to anyone who is planning to shoot events.

I am stunned! I am stunned! As a result of reading all the varied reviews of this jib, I decided to give it a try
5/5

To begin with, I had the whole thing up and balanced in less than fifteen Excellent build quality and quality materials have gone into making this product. I found that I needed to add weight to the boom since I fully extended it. This is a Neewer sandbag that I used. As a result, it is completely balanced and runs very smoothly. My recommendation for this product is strong.

The price is great for this
5/5

I had to get an additional counterweight for my camera but the quality of the product is great. There is even an additional one that can hold up to 10 lbs. There is a weight rating of 17 lbs on the box. I also mounted a second tripod head on the claw ball adjustment, so it can adjust a focusing ring or a telescopic ring. This seems like alot for these pipes, but it works perfectly with my DSLR. I was really impressed with how well this was It was only the lock screws on the claw ball plate that weren't quite square enough, so when I slid the claw ball plate onto the manfrotto tripod plate receiver, the plate wouldn't tighten all the way, and then it would just wiggle around. Normally, I can figure out my needs and do the rest quickly. So all is well.
