Self made camera jib/crane. Inside test.

Building a Video Jib/Crane at http://www.hikingbike.org/home/self-made-video-jib-crane

The final video with some information of the building process will be posted when the jib/crane is ready and tuned. Video mostly will have creative style and not "how to" or documentary style. However It will give a very good idea of how to build your own jib/crane.

The estimated project cost is 500$ (not including the tripod)

The jib/crane has 2 setups:
1) about 2 meters extended from the tripod axis. The estimated weigh of the crane is about 7kg balanced without camera load. Each 100gram of camera adds 150-200 gram of balancing weight.

2) about 3 meters extended from tripod axis. The estimated weigh of the crane is about 9kg balanced without camera load. Each 100gram of camera adds 250-300 gram of balancing weight.

The jib/crane has to axes: horizontal and vertical with adjustable transmission ratio.

The jib/crane will have a preview monitor and a 15 hours battery module.
