I wish I bought this sooner. As a new filmmaker, it's been a learning curve. I didn't know how this 4 foot would translate into a good shot. But I love it.
Amazing ProAm customer service, AMAZING COMPANY!

ProAm is probably one of the most accommodating companies I have dealt with in years. I had a problem with the build I had purchased from B & H and they re-built one for me. I have never seen a company value customer service more that ProAm..B & H and proAm are perfect together. Great Crane rig set up as well love the footage I can achieve for my production. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED PRODUCT AND COMPANY

question
What is the recommended weight to attach to the handle?
Counterweights are not included with cranes because of shipping costs. It is considered that barbells are available locally so that you may reduce your costs procuring them.According to the manufacturer, the counterweight ratio for the Orion Jr. is 3x the weight of the camera load. The counterweight bar accepts standard barbell type weights with a 1 center.
