Neewer 70 inches/ 177Centimeters Carbon Fiber Jib Arm Camera Crane with 1/4 and 3/8-inch Quick Shoe Plate, Counter Weight for DSLR Video…

PRODOTTO DALLE QUALITÀ ALTA NONOSTANTE IL PREZZO. CONSIGLIATO

Works well as a budget option for smaller cameras. The head of the unit can shift and needs to be adjusted/tightened occasionally to maintain a level horizon. Otherwise it works as expected.

L’on peut être surpris par le poids du produit avant de l’avoir déballé. C’est parce que la housse de transport contient deux contre poids de 1 kg. J’ai été agréablement surpris par la qualité de fabrication et la compacité de l’ensemble une fois rangé. Je ne suis pas vidéaste et cette grue va me faciliter la vie dans ma pratique de la macrophotographie à l’extérieur. Je l’ai complétée avec l’adaptateur bol de 75 mm de la même marque pour faciliter le cadrage de mes sujets. J’ai monté sur cet adaptateur un petit étau Arca Swiss ce qui me permet de mettre en place mon boîtier commodément. Pour la liaison avec le trépied j’ai fixé une semelle Arca Swiss d’où un montage-démontage express. Avec un boîtier un peu lourd, les 2 kg de contre poids sont insuffisants et un petit anneau sous une bague coulissante permet d’accrocher un sac ou tout autre objet pour une masse d’équilibrage supplémentaire. Un trépied bien rigide est préférable pour limiter et amortir rapidement les vibrations.

CAUTION: The jib may arrive damaged due to poor packaging. Neewer has placed this carbon fiber jib loose within a rectangular box which doest have any protection on the ends. The jib comes with two weights that are about in the center of the box. So with one good drop the box crushes and the end of the jib is damaged. (See pics) For Amazon, it needs to be double boxed unless Neewer fixes their inadequate packaging.
SERVICE: Still waiting to hear back from Neewer for a few weeks now on replacing the damaged parts. So don’t order it right before you need to use it!
PRODUCT: I feel like this jib has great potential. It is lightweight and feels solid. It does have some flex and it definitely needs to mounted onto a sturdy set of tripod legs. I tried it with my Neewer carbon fiber tripod and it flexes which allows left/right movement when you move the jib up/down. On a heavier tripod it feels much steadier. The movement of the jib itself feel smooth so far. Instructions for a first time setup are a little lacking but it’s not too difficult honestly. Comes mostly assembled already.
FEATURES: I’d like to see a different adjustment mechanism on the lower arm to allow the operator to actively alter the camera tilt while raising or lowering the jib head. But with a little practice you can get a good camera angle, it just doesn’t tilt as you jib up or down (This is my first jib so it’s possible I just haven’t figured out yet how to set it fully.)

Bought this to get crane like shots while learning and on no budget. It’s solid and seems well crafted. Combined with a low weight camera, it helps to get angles otherwise unobtainable without either a drone or much more expensive, tailored equipment.

I always wanted my own camera crane of some sort, but never thought I would be able to afford one. Decided to buy this for a gig I was working on and could not be any happier with how well it is made! It is extremely strong and durable, capable of supporting my camera and largest lens with ease. Operating it is simple, it can be assembled quickly, and it fits onto any tripod making it super versatile for a jib. I love how long it is too, I have got some amazing shots with this and I’m so excited to use it again on my next gig. My films and projects now have a much higher production value that makes all the difference. For the price, this is an amazing jib and I would recommend it to anyone on a budget that still wants to get some production value in their work.

Abusando de su límite de carga (8kg) con unos 10kg y sin problemas. Dejándolo bien suelto, se mueve con fluidez. Trípode con cabeza fluida y un gimbal con mando a distancia como la serie Ronin, tienes una combo que te admite realizar unos planos brutales.
