The Genushtech Compact Pole is the brainchild of Hollywood cinematographer Rodney Charters ASC. It is a multipurpose lightweight carbon fiber pole that can be used on any production to get that high-angle shot that would be impossible to get any other way. Unlike a regular audio boompole, it is designed to carry a range of objects and has an adjustable thread length on the top point that you would fix your equipment to. This feature allows for versatility in fixing 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 screw threads with different depths.
The pole can be used to support a lightweight brushless gimbal, small VR cameras, a small compact camera, a GoPro for photography, small lights, flexible LED panels, or a microphone. Optional accessories will allow the pole to be clamped or attached to objects for greater stability. Some cameras and gimbals will require specialized mounting and third-party accessories for attachment. The Compact Pole has been designed to fit into most large suitcases and is great for those wanting flexibility in travel.
Do not use the pole within 164' of overhead wires. Contact with electricity can result in serious injury and death. Care must be taken to avoid other objects and persons who may be injured if coming into contact with the pole. Do not use the pole over persons, animals, or property that is outside your control. Do not use in any area where you do not have appropriate permissions or rights to use, and do not use in high winds or thunderstorms.
