The compact and travel-friendly Mini Jib from Genustech lets you capture those classic sweeping camera moves that only a jib arm can, but without the typical size and weight that comes along with it. Ideal for smaller operations or for filmmakers on the go, the Mini Jib supports loads up to 9.4 lb and extends provides up to 6' of reach, all while collapsing down to 33" and weighing only 3.5 lb.

These clamps allow you to move the weights closer or further away to fine-tune your balance.

question
I've never used a jib before. Thinking of getting for use with a Canon XA20 and/or EOS 70D. I need clarification on how these work. Can I put on my Manfrotto 503 head? If I set my camera for the view I want at eye level, will it maintain that orientation when I raise the camera to full height? Or would I need to view with my Nexus 7 via wi-fi to be sure I'm getting the same field? When fully extended will I have full control of the camera to get the view I want? Will the jib raise and lower smoothly so I can shoot video while moving? Would you recommend the Genustech Mini for my use? I need something very portable, quick and easy to set up and take down by one person. Any suggestions for an alternative jib? I'd like something in the $500 range. Thank you!
Can I put on my Manfrotto 503 head? answer yes If I set my camera for the view I want at eye level, will it maintain that orientation when I raise the camera to full height? answer - it will maintain the level but not the view, you will need to use the tripod head to tilt down while raising the jib and tilt up while lowering it and yes you would need to use your Nexus 7 via wifi just to make sure.Will the jib raise and lower smoothly so I can shoot video while moving? - as long as the jib is properly balanced with counter weights or sand bags then yes it will go up an d down smoothly.and yes i would recomend it for your use

question
Is there some kind of bracket available for me to attach my Nexus 7 to use as a monitor? Something that would make it quick and easy to clip on or remove when I set up the jib?
If the mount he has for his Nexus 7 has a 1/4 -20 or 3/8 threaded stud there are several places where an arm can be screwed into the pillar of the Jib-Arm.
