Create sweeping shots with your DSLR, mirrorless, or small camera rig using this 8' Portable Quick Jib System from Glide Gear. The system includes the 8' Quick Jib and a wireless transmitter/receiver monitor kit.
The aluminum jib arm features quick and easy setup, and its length can be extended up to 8', creating a maximum length of 12'. It can be mounted onto any tripod with a 1/4"-20 thread, and its camera mounting plate features 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting threads to accommodate various mounts, rigs, and heads. On the back of the arm are posts that can accept separately available barbell counterweights. The arm can support a camera rig up to 7 lb.
The included wireless monitor system consists of a 2.4 GHz transmitter and receiver set and a 7" RGB LCD monitor with an 800 x 480 resolution. It frees up the wires from your setup when your operator is at the base of the jib. The wireless kit has a maximum transmission range of 82'.
This 8' Portable Quick Jib from Glide Gear is designed for use with DSLRs or other cameras weighing up to seven pounds. It telescopes from 4 to 8' and is 12 feet in total length. No need to purchase special weights; this portable jib uses standard barbell weights or sandbags as counterweights. It offers a quick and easy setup, and weighs in at 11 pounds (without weights).
Other features include an adjustable tension cable for added stability, a foam rubber–padded guide handle, both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 camera-mounting screws, and a scratch-resistant black finish to minimize visibility on set.
Wirelessly monitor what your camera is recording with this Glide Gear Wireless Monitor Transmitter/Receiver Kit. The kit is comprised of a 7", 800x480 resolution, TFT LCD monitor, a transmitter, a receiver, and all the necessary cabling to connect to a composite video source. An RCA female to female barrel connector is also included in case your, like some DSLRs, requires an A/V breakout cable. Wireless monitoring comes in handy when the camera can't be reached or interfered with. For example, when it's up on a jib or a crane or when it's being flown on a stabilizer or motorized gimbal. In optimal conditions, this kit has a maximum operating range of 82'. The transmitter requires a 9V battery for operation while the receiver has a built-in rechargeable battery, which also powers the monitor itself. Alternatively, the receiver can be powered directly off of the included AC adapter.
