iFootage M1-III Mini Crane with Low-Mode Quick Release Adapter

iFootage M1-III

The iFootage M1-III Mini Crane with the M1 Low-Profile Quick-Release Adapter to enable upside-down mounting and low-angle shots with the crane.

The Mini Crane supports 22 lb loads in low-angle mode but requires the M1 adapter (included) to function in this mode. It features a maximum reach of 3.9 ft and telescoping range of 3.2 to 7.1 ft. This crane is made mainly of lightweight carbon-fiber material. The max payload in standard mode is 33 lb.

iFootage M1-III Mini Crane Jib Arm

The M1-III Mini Crane from iFootage is a compact, portable jib arm featuring lightweight carbon-fiber construction, a telescoping square-arm tube, and multiple mounting options. Its square tube design helps to minimize potential shaking during operation. The M1-III has a maximum payload of 33 lb in standard mode and 22 lb in low-angle mode. The main jib arm and the counterweight arm each have one telescoping stage (two sections) with locking thumb-lever knobs. Standard barbell weights (available separately) may be used as counterweights.

Mount your DSLR (or other small camera) on either of two included quick release plates: the M1 or the Motion X2. The M1 plate has both a flat camera plate and a ball mount, enabling use of a fluid head (with a 60 or 75mm ball). The Motion X2 plate is used with micro cameras or when using wide- angle lenses. Both the arm base and the camera base incorporate 1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 holes for mounting accessories.

The adjustable tilt-damping knob, the tilt lock, and the pan drag function give you added control over your crane shots. For programmable moves, the M1-III can be used with the iFootage Motion X2 or other motion control systems.
