The Technodolly is an “intelligent” Technocrane that allows the operator to record his camera movement on all axes: Pan / Tilt and translation. TSF technician required.

The Technodolly is a “Motion control” system, it records the start and end position, as well as all movements between these 2 positions. The Technodolly records every movement, sending the camera position in real time to the 3D software. The Technodolly can save an unlimited amount of movements and can repeat them at any time on any other Technodolly in the world. For operation and configuration, we recommend an operator and a technician.

The Jimmy Jib is a crane equipped with a two or three axis motorized head with a boom measuring between 2 and 9 meters.

The control system allows the operator to control, with joysticks, the zoom, pan, tilt, focus, iris and release of the camera.

Most cameras are compatible with the Jimmy Jib, up to 22.7kg of maximum weight, with a 9m arm.

The Jimmy Jib’s tripod can be placed on the ground, on a fixed platform or on a rail.

The wheeled base under the tripod allows great mobility during the shootings.

This crane is without a doubt the most versatile and best value crane on the market.

Its new Triangle arm is lighter but still as rigid. Its design offers a wide range of lengths, ease of assembly and use in all types of environments. The remote controlled head has quiet motors and the boom automatically adjusts to pan and tilt movements.

A single operator can control this crane when accompanied by a machinist to move the arm. The speed of the head movement can be varied according to the desired settings.

FIXED CRANE

• From 2,10 to 7,70m
• Max. carrying capacity 3,5kg at 5,5m and 2kg at 7,7m
• 12V battery or mains power supply
• Monitoring : 7” SDI-HDMI monitor

The Polecam is a light crane (made of carbon fiber elements), discreet and modular for live use on set, sports competitions, events but also for fictional shootings.

The Polecam is easily transportable, can be set up quickly and can be operated by a single person.
It offers the possibility of extremely precise movements even in the tightest of spaces.

Two versions of the Polecam camera head are available: NARROW HEAD or LONG HEAD specially designed for large devices.
Monitoring is provided by an LCD monitor mounted on the pole.

The Polecam is a flexible tool that can be carried by the operator, installed on a fixed stand, a wheeled base, on the back of a vehicle etc… Its fully electronic control is one of its many advantages.
It can move up to 30 times slower than its previous version and rotate 360° in 7 seconds.

Its adaptability will allow you to turn where you want (it is also an offset arm to place the camera in inaccessible places).
