MONITOR
SUPPORT
BRACKET - For Front Operation
Balanced Monitor Bracket - for front-operated jib work.
$395
Now 8 inch (or smaller) monitors can be used as an easy-to-view
on-camera display for jib work. As you boom the camera up and down,
this new bracket's handle allows you to have your left hand
controlling the angle of the monitor at all times, and
because it is balanced, whenever you let go of the handle, the monitor
will remain in that angle. So, for example, as the camera is boomed
upward, above your head, you can flip the monitor, as you let go with
your left hand, into a downward angle that will be easy to see,
confident that the monitor will retain its desired angle for viewing.
The bracket assembly mounts between your camera's base and the fluid
head's balance plate, and comes with its own balance plate assembly to
mount to your camera. This bracket allows you to move the monitor for
and aft, as well as up and down to obtain nodal point balance. It then
has a drag adjustment that allows it to move smoothly to keep it from
being completely free-wheeling.

| NEW! |
| LOW PROFILE 3-WAY LEVELER $295 |
 |
| Attaches
to the base
of either the Standard Porta-JIb or Traveller and drops into the top of
the tripod. Allows you to level the jib without moving the tripod legs.
This is especially useful for those who want to have the Standard Jib
on our rolling 3-Leg Spider. As one rolls from point A to point B, the
floor invariably changes in level. So rather than trying to move the
legs, which is difficult with a fully loaded jib, especially with the
foot of the tripod locked into place on the dolly. Instead, you can now
simply make the leveling adjustment at the base of the jib. Its low
profile allows it to remain attached to the SPJ and still fit into the
SPJ's custom case. |

the extended front, and the camera/fluid head needs 2.2X weight to
balance.

Our
weights are engraved
with the Porta-Jib name, and are powder-coated to prevent them from
rusting.
Any barbell weights with a standard 35mm hole will work, but rusting
will
usually occur. Our weight shaft has a 1" (25mm) diameter.
