The New Hague K11 Compact Camera Crane Available Now

16th Sep 2015

The Hague K11 Compact Camera Jib is so small & compact it can be taken almost anywhere with ease. The Camera Crane has been specifically designed to be lightweight and simple to set up, allowing you to enhance your video productions by getting those beautifully professional looking crane shots.

The jib is supplied in two parts which are only 800mm (31 ½”) long. These slot together (no tools required) to create a jib that has a vertical crane movement that will lift your camera from ground level to a height of 2.6 metres (8ft 6”).

It mounts directly to the tripod’s head in the same way as you would mount your camera and it can be held by both ¼” and 3/8” camera screws. The jib uses the tripod’s head for pan movement which allows the jib to smoothly pan from side to side and move round through 360 degrees. Locking the tilt on the tripod video head ensures the camera will remain level as the jib is raised up and down.

It has a maximum crane movement of 2.6 metres (8ft 6”), which is far greater than other jibs in this class and price bracket. A standard bar weight or a sandbag can be used for counterbalance (not supplied). The telescopic counterbalance bar can be adjusted to get the correct balance to match your camera’s weight.

The ideal camera weight is between 0.5kg to 2kg, but the jib will support up to 2.5kg when mounted to a suitable tripod or it could be mounted to the stand which we sell as an optional extra.
