Now this is a great product, if you want to get full potential out of it when using a dslr camera you will need some extra bags for weight especially when getting creative by using a ball head a small fluid head attached to the jib.
You will also need a good strong fluid head if you want to attach it to a fluid head and not the tripod. By doing this you can now also pan to crest better videos. The job is very smooth when balanced properly. It actually feels like a good fluid head. Although it gives very smooth performance some parts of it make unwanted noise and this is the reason for marking down.

It took me awhile to figure out how to search for these items – “jibs”. I’m not a camera or production person, so I did a lot of digging on the internet. I eventually found the term “jib” and then found this product. I have the Neewer light soft boxes – as seen in my attached photo – and was hesitant to try their jib. Their light soft boxes are rather flimsy and pretty fragile – they’re affordable though, like this jib. This jib was the cheapest that I saw on Amazon, though, and the reviews were mixed with mentions of the metal being flimsy. I went ahead and bought it, though, and am extremely surprised by the high quality! The metal easily holds my Sony A6300. The metal feels very firm and sturdy – nothing at all like their light boxes. My only gripe, if I had to choose one, would be that some of the tightening “bolts” don’t quite get tight enough. There is one tightening bolt that you can tighten as hard as possible but the hinge still moves if you give it a push. Overall, though, great value for the price.

Its a great little jib, BUT once you add an external mic, DSLR with larger lense, monitor and a cell phone to monitor from the back those 2 little weights dont do much for equalizing the load.
I had to use a 10 pound weight my dad had when he was in the army in the 60s to slide on there, then hold it in place with one of the screw on weights.
Tomorrow ill be adding a gimbal so ill have to go buy iron plates, which will put me well over the weight limit for this thing.
All this to do videos for my youtube and my wifes instagram/ other social media things
Ill probably have to step up to a large one…
The tripod im using is good, forget the 25 dollar tripods with adjustable heads.

I’m using this with a Sony Rx ten camera which has a long motorised lens, and a small battery powered motorised head mounted on a heavy duty camera tripod.
I like how both front and rear parts of this jib arm is telescopic so it comes apart so it packs down into about 3ft and fits into a decent padded bag that comes with it.
It comes supplied with 2 1kg weights, I found with my rig I needed to add one more weight when at full extend but that was no problem as I have some old dumbells. The supplied weights screw on and hold it on just perfectly.
The quick release slide plate has a bowl attached which I didn’t need, it is easily removed with an Allen key.
The slide plate has a removable rubber bung, this is so you can insert either a 3/8 or 1/4 screw, both of which are supplied (mine came with the 3/8 one fitted, it took me a while to find the 1/4 one I needed, that’s what you get for not reading the manual, right chaps?)
In use, it is easy to quickly balance the camera, and very smooth to swing the arm around getting some great low/high shots,
The adjustable friction controls on both ends make it as loose or tight as you want.
To tilt the camera if you don’t have a motorised head, just tilt the tripod head a little but remember to keep hold of it and lock it off asap.

The item is NOT exactly as described.
The description shows that the mounting to the tripod is via a Horizontal Rotating Plate.
Mine is different in as much that the HR plate was NOT supplied but instead there is a fixed flat plate that does not allow Panning. Whilst it would allow fixing to a tripod head this won’t take into account the weight, ie, the jib+ camera+ weights etc . If , however, it was fixed Directly to the tripod this would not be a problem.
According to the pictures in the description where the HR Plate is fitted there are 2 screw holes each side in the uprights ( which mine does NOT have ). So have i got a different model ?
There is another couple of minor problems. 1) The camera plate locking lever can’t be tightened sufficiently to lock.
2) The lense indicating arrow on the underside of the camera plat is pointing the WRONG way
All in all i’m dissapointed with this because in all other respects it is very well made.
I am currently discussing this with the seller and Neewer

This product is fantastic for the price. However, I have a 6.5lb camera and lens and it tests the integrity of the unit. I will be able to get the shots I need this week, however I will save this pice to use with my DSLR for small product shots.

I am happy with this jib, and very impressed! I thought this jib would be whimsy, but this is a solid and sturdy piece of equipment. I have yet to set it on a tripod and connect my camera, but I opened the package and put it together in about four minutes or less and the weight this jib has gives me confidence in the product. My only issue was there were grooves on the product that looked as if it had been dropped or something rubbed along a few grooves where the weights install or are added. I was going to send this back because of the dents on the grooves but the weights were able to be installed and this does not affect the product’s function, so far, but will it affect the jib’s function later the more the weights are added and removed over time? We will see.
Happy jibbing…
UPDATE: I added a photo. The shipping box came damaged and opened, as well. This jib must have been thrown around pretty hard, it’s a manufacturer’s defect, or someone dropped it or damaged it while packing. It was wrapped solid so I can only imagine how the defects were generated on the groves. I’m going to keep it rather than return it.

I have owned this jib for a while now and having quickly set it up and put it on the first tripod I could reach when I first got it, I was not impressed. What needs to be said about this jib, is that it’s designed for the prosumer market, people with lightweight camcorders or DSLRs that rig out at no more than a few pounds. Although it says it is rated for 17lbs, this jib is too wobbly for such large camera rigs and will certainly fail your expectations if you try to put a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema on there with a full cage, lens, light, and microphone. A Sony A6000 or similar sized camera would be a much more suitable camera for this jib. After some trial and error, I have learned this – The tripod you put it on matters – the heavier and sturdier the better!; Use the correct amount of counterweight – if your camera is 10 pounds, then your counterweight should be close to the same. Adjusting the back balance bar can help find that “zero gravity” you need to properly operate the jib. Also, using the hook loop on the back to attach a sandbag or additional weight can help stabilize the rig. All in all, if you use this as intended you will get great results! Don’t try to do $1000 dollar jib work on a $125 jib. The jib is well made with the exception of plastic tightening screws. I have not made the time yet, but I will replace those with something metallic in the future. This makes the jib weak at the joints and can make the whole thing cantilever out of whack – simple enough to adjust manually, but this would not happen with better hardware on board.

What really surprised me, this crane actually giving you more versatile for still shots than the camera on the tripod itself. Regards of great movements as the cranes usually do, on this one you can lock it on every position. So you can adjust height much faster, same as the angle. For such a cheap product (compared to other cranes) the build is decent. As you probably are using DSLR or Black Magic 4k/6k the freedom and lightness of the setup is a BIG advantage.
I tried pushing the limits with a proper heavy camera inside the FilmCity cage, and I wouldn’t recommend it simply due to the fact work with a heavy camera on the front making filming much harder without adding much benefit.
I’m also always using a gimbal along with a crane, this allowing me to rapidly change the angle of the camera and depend on the situation, detached camera for run and gun situation.

Not yet sure about this. Need to use it more but not in a production environment. Found that the connection to the tripod was a bit weak and allowed the jig to turn and twist. The rods also move when having a large DSLR and decent lens on there (about 6 kilos) which means that the camera sags on the top of the Jig making it useless. That may improve once I connect it to the tripod in a better manner. You do need far more weights than were supplied – the jig is very unbalanced with what is supplied. It does have a helpful hook on the weight end so this is not a major issue. All in all for the money paid (which is low) it is what it is. Proper professional versions of these cost £800+ easily. I’ll give it another go and may just use it with lighter cameras for B roll stuff. We shall see.
