A true crane will always have an equal and opposite moment arm, i.e. a couple that sums to zero at the pivot. The fact that the counterweights do not keep the crane in equilibrium when the camera end is extended shows that the counter-extension has not been thought-out correctly; you should not need to add or remove weights when you've balanced out the crane.

Always a good day when a new Potato Jet video hits the airwaves! 😊

I really like that you mentioned working WITHIN this thing's limitations.

I was on a set where one of these was brought out specifically for a crowd shot with an A cam that was WAY too hefty for it.

Thankfully, we had a pre-rig day, and they were able to get something more suitable in. DoP REALLY didn't want to use a b-cam. I still shudder to imagine a less experienced crew trying to go outside of this thing's pay-grade with the hopes that it'll hold out for just long enough.

Really cool tool and idea, though! Hopefully, it stays in the hands of people who will respect it.

You're videos are the best, because it's like a podcast with random guests, slash review video, slash tutorial, slash just fun and entertaining vlog.

I've worked worked with these, they can be really amazing and really up your production value. Just watch your weight and make sure your screws are tight... Threre;s literally *one* holding it all together. I put a Red on this once and was shaking in my AC boots the whole time.

did yall try to get a dolly track to a push in rather than using the mechanical option in the crane? would look smoother and wont have to worry about the bumps from the mechanical push in

Dude, my DJI Osmo pocket 3 on the 3 meter insta360 selfie stick and my GF operating via the MIMO App can achieve this as well. Pretty wild. 😎

Once upon a time I was looking for a tech review about mirrorless camera. Happily found your channel and still watching all of you, just for the happiness and energy of your videos. Even I m done with my equipment I m curious of evolution of gear. Waiting for arri to give you more new sheet to do. One love

That piece of gear really cost an arm and a leg didn't it... 😏
You're the best man!

Can everybody just share this video so Gene can get to 1million as a late Christmas present 🎁

This thing seems useless. Almost all of the shots were wobbly. And that one attachment point for real looks sketchy. But great video as always sir, happy new year to you, your family and your crew!

I use this jib at weddings and i also find the centerscrew very risky. So i replace it every year just to be ‘safe’

So I've been looking at this for 4 years.

I had their 24 ft jib and it worked but it wasn't everything I needed but I've gotten great shots with it.

I agree with your review..

But at 10:50 you point out the difference I think you could build a cage (sppedrails and some gobo heads)around the back and operate from the cage like the techno crane and it would potentially fix that problem with the operator needing to step back as he extends the crane.

Great review tho
