Balancing Tips
- 7.3ft Jib Length– When jib length is 7.3ft Jib will be balance with 12.5kg weight, with every 2kg of camera setup you need to add 4.5kg weight to balance it. Now total weight 12.5 + 4.5kg= 17kg.
- 9.1ft Jib Length– When jib length is 9.1ft Jib will be balanced with 21.5kg weight, with every 2kg of camera setup you need to add 4.5kg weight to balance it. Now total weight 21.5 + 4.5kg= 26kg.
- 12.5ft Jib Length– When jib length is 12.5ft Jib will be balance with 38.5kg weight, with every 2kg of camera setup you need to add 6.5kg weight to balance it. Now total weight
38.5 + 6.5kg= 45kg.
NOTE: Use Microbalance for Precision balancing.
