The ASABA-T Studio Stand from Foba is ideal for museums and galleries which sometimes have special requirements when it comes to photographing artwork that might be difficult to capture with normal equipment. They often need to photograph large paintings or tapestries in small segments and assemble them into high-resolution images. FOBA has modified the ASABA studio stand to meet this requirement.
The ASABA-T has two horizontal beams. On the outer horizontal beam there is a ball-bearing mounted dolly on which the camera is fixed. Thanks to this construction, images can be photographed in small segments up to a length of 14.1' without having to move the stand on the floor. If a painting or tapestry is longer than 14.1', a studio stand on a floor rail should be considered. Thanks to the ASOBU shaft turning mechanism, mounted between the base and the shaft, the shaft can be turned and positioned parallel to the painting.
