The CobraCrane Backpacker Portable Camera Jib is a single-arm jib arm for small camcorders. This crane offers an 8' reach when matched with an optional 5' tripod, and it can sweep the ground for low-angle applications.
Note:
Tripod and head are sold separately.
Camera Movement
From the ground level, the camera can be tilted up over 90 degrees, allowing the user to obtain a great perspective shot. Sweeping vista shots of landscapes, panoramas, and sporting events are possible. The over-the-top shot is also ideal for cooking videos, food marketing videos, and a variety of higher perspective shots
Camera Tilt
In basic configuration, the camera platform stays set and does not tilt as you crane up and down. However, mounting the crane on an available, suitable tripod with fluid head allows you to tilt the fluid head and have the crane's camera platform follow the motion of the tilt.
Quick Set-Up
This device is easily assembled with a quick no-tool setup system.
Construction
The CobraCrane Backpacker is solidly constructed from aluminum and is built to last.
Small Breakdown
The CobraCrane Backpacker has the same reach as the CobraCrane I but breaks down in two sections, one two-foot section and one three-foot section.
