Now, the new Skycrane Junior mini DV camera jib lends itself to achieving the same dramatic shots seen in some of your favorite films.

Like some very expensive camera jibs, all of the Skycrane Junior's movements are made on ball bearings, it also uses a cable drive system allowing your camera to stay level while booming up or down, also giving you the ability to keep your subject in frame.

Unlike other camera jibs, the Skycrane Junior also allows 360 degrees of camera rotation on the tilt axis, providing you with some incredible camera movements.

A new feature, exclusive to the Skycrane Junior is a brake (drag) adjustment offering resistance to the jib arm for more control while booming up or down.

The Skycrane Junior can be set up in a fraction of the time required by other jibs, it literally mounts to your tripod in seconds.

The Skycrane Junior incorporates its own Vector ball bearing mounting head thus eliminating a difficult and timely mounting procedure to a video fluid head. Video fluid heads are designed to support video cameras and not heavy jib arms.

Boom panning, booming up or down and tilting your camera from twelve foot of elevation to ground level in one fluid move, you'll be able to create some of the most dramatic and dynamic footage possible when using the Skycrane Junior

Like all of the Skycrane products, the Skycrane Junior is truly second to none. From its fluid and graceful movements to its incredibly rugged construction it is the most stable camera support system for mini DV cameras available in its price range.
