The Jimmy Jib Triangle is a lightweight, modular Camera Crane system that comes equipped with a two axis Remote Head capable of handling film and digital format cameras. The Jib is quickly and easily repositioned using off-road wheels and can also be mounted on a Skateboard Dolly for use on standard Track for tracking shots. The equipment’s small footprint and light weight make it ideal for use on tracking vehicles and in tight or difficult environments like rooftops or cliff edges or anywhere where weight and or space are a potential issue.
