Kessler Crane Pocket Jib Pro Reviews

Solid and Stable

I've been looking for a solid, stable, and affordable jib for a while and this is it. Great piece of equipment.

Nice professional jib

I use the Kessler Pocket JIb PRO for live professional wrestling events. I debated purchasing this because I was afraid it might not give me enough reach. When paired with the Kessler K-Pod at full extension, it gets plenty high. I did not put a tape measure to it, but my camera must have been close to 10 feet with my setup. The jib is very heavy duty and can support my camera, head, and teleprompter with no problems. The K-pod pairs beautifully and is similarly constructed. All motions are fluid and smooth as long as I do my part. I got the swivel mount rather than the hercules head, which has been sufficient for my needs. I would encourage anyone looking for a solid production tool to consider the Kessler product. I would absolutely purchase again.

I am using the Tenba 48" rolling tripod/grip case TETGC48. It is a really nice quality rolling case and the pocket jib pro fits absolutely perfectly into it. Highly recommended.

What is the ratio for the counterweights, at the different extensions?
Asked by: Deborah
Use this formula to calculate the ballpark counterweights for jibs like the Kessler Crane Pocket Jib PRO (without 100mm Swivel Mount) at varying lengths: Camera weight x distance of the camera to the pivot / distance of counter to the pivot.
