Jib use at studio shoots, 7 May 2014
This is my default jib setup, with a floor dolly and my custom camera cage attached for versatility. These enable easy repositioning of the setup and front use of the jib for precise motion control when I don’t want to be at the rear station- it’s quick and smooth. I can use the camera’s monitor as in this example or attach an external one.
A Mafer clamp holds the microphone array at the front -top of the jib,thanks Matthews!
The Canon 5dIII barely fits into the cage when using the Manfrotto flat base fluid head (here)… the fit’s better with the 70D, allowing additional camera moves from the head while employing the jib’s separate motions.
