Ok, so I bought this product to try to save money on purchasing some higher-end jib models. It's simple to put together by yourself, although there are a lot of tiny parts you need to keep track of (knobs, screws, etc. I suggest you keep a zip-lock baggy handy). It's fairly easy to pick up and move slightly once assembled, but not recommended. However, the metal finish gets dinged up easily and some of the parts aren't high-quality. For instance, the tripod stand, when first taken out and set up, the head got stuck when fully extended and was almost impossible to retract it (was told this had been a common issue lately with the stand from customer support). With a little bit of jiggling and force, I was able to get it back in without breaking anything, *I think*. Secondly, the build has some flaws that can be prevented. The U-shaped bracket I received that you mount on the stand and that the jib arm is attached to, it was slightly bent, causing the angle of tilt to be extreme by the time you got to the end of the arm, and was too significant to let it slide. The stand would be level, but the further you got down the arm, the more canted the angle would be, causing your camera to shoot totally crooked. Placing some spacers on either side of the arm that goes through the u-shaped bracket would add stability and prevent the bracket from becoming bent. Also, the mounting head to the stand, it started becoming difficult to screw on the tripod stand and I noticed there were bits of plastic being stripped from somewhere in the plate mechanism, which I know isn't a good sign and did not allow me to screw the head on easily. Now, I sent these items causing issues back to ProAm (they paid for shipping, just make sure you find a long box if you need to send it back), customer support was fantastic and they did replace the parts, however now I'm facing the same issue of the angle being tilted by another part of the jib; the base plate where you mount the camera. I'm waiting to see what their fix is for this issue, but already I've had these few minor issues make me rethink my purchase decision. You may have better luck than me. I just don't want to keep messing with these minor flaws when I could throw the money elsewhere.

Can the head tilt so camera can be perpendicular to ground?
Asked by: Mike
The ProAm USA Orion 8' DVC210 Crane alone will not allow you to point the camera 90 deg towards the ground. However if you add a Video head you will be able to achieve this. Example head idea BH #BES4PRO

On this boom, can you turn the camera left and right while in action?
Asked by: Josh
You wouldn't turn left or right so much as swing left or right. Camera is always facing forward and the boom arm can rotate on the tripod base if the camera needs to see what is to the left or right of it.

question

Can this be used to mount red scarlet x?
Asked by: Anonymous
It all depends on the configuration. The camera might only be a few lbs but you have to add the lens, battery and any accessories. If you keep under the 8 lbs capacity, you can use this crane.

question

Is there a place to mount the monitor on the crane?
Asked by: Anonymous
For this crane we would suggest something like this clamp and arm. Clamp it where it does the most good at the rear of the crane. Pearstone Articulating Arm and Mini Clamp Kit B&H # PEAA83K.
