About Came-TV J5

Let the J5 18' Basic Version Telescopic Portable Camera Jib elevate your filmmaking capabilities with its impressive reach and versatility. This extension-type jib is expertly designed to extend up to a remarkable 5.6 meters, allowing for sweeping aerial shots and dynamic angles that can truly enhance your visual storytelling.

Crafted for ease of use and flexibility, the J5 Jib is compatible with a variety of stabilizers and electric pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) heads, including the DJI RS3 PRO, RS2, and R2 gimbal bases. Its adaptability ensures that it can accommodate a range of equipment, from SLR stabilizers to common handheld gimbals available on the market, making it a valuable addition to any filmmaker's toolkit.

The jib's five-section telescopic design allows for fully extended lengths of 5.6m, supporting loads up to 5kg, while at a 4m extension, it can handle a maximum payload of 12.5kg. This robust construction is complemented by an ARRI gear disc with a rotatable design, offering precise control and smooth movement for your camera setups.

For those looking to delve into narrow spaces or achieve high-angle shots, the J5 Jib's length can be adjusted to meet these specific needs, ensuring that no shot is out of reach. The jib's compatibility extends to the DJI RS3 PRO/RS2 Wireless Controller, which provides filmmakers with the ability to control rotation, pitch, roll, and directional switching remotely, adding to the jib's operational convenience.

Installation is straightforward, with the jib supporting light stands or tripods via a pan/tilt quick-release plate, and the forearm support frame is easily adjustable for optimal balance and control. The jib's practicality is further enhanced by its portability; when fully retracted, it measures just 1.48 meters in length and weighs a mere 6 kilograms. This makes transportation and setup a breeze, especially with the inclusion of a carrying case for on-the-go shoots.

Powering your equipment is made simple with the V-mount lithium battery power supply, which offers dual outputs: a 12V power supply for your monitor and another 14.8V for powering DJI RS3 PRO/RS2 stabilizers. This ensures that your equipment stays operational throughout your shoot, without the need for constant battery swaps.

In summary, the J5 18' Basic Version Telescopic Portable Camera Jib is a practical, portable, and powerful tool for filmmakers seeking to capture professional-grade footage with ease and precision. Whether you're shooting a feature film or creating content for digital platforms, this jib is engineered to meet the demands of modern cinematography.
