Leofoto GC-282AL Multi Function Geared Boom Arm

Elevate your creative control with the Leofoto GC-282AL - a professional-grade, multi-function geared boom arm designed to deliver unmatched versatility, precision, and stability for studio and field use. Ideal for macro photography, product work, overhead shots, and complex multi-angle setups, this robust aluminium boom arm transforms your tripod into a fully-articulating support rig with fluid, gear-driven accuracy.

Engineered for Precision and Flexibility

The GC-282AL combines a 180° tilt mechanism with 360° panning capability, allowing photographers and videographers to achieve perfect positioning from virtually any angle. Whether you're working on detailed tabletop photography or need precise overhead placement, the geared sliding extension arm provides micro-adjustments-each twist delivering a 14mm movement for fine-tuned framing.

Geared Extension for Smooth, Controlled Adjustment

At the heart of the GC-282AL is its geared column extender, which allows users to slide the arm back and forth with precision control. The built-in twist-lock rubber grip at the rear of the arm doubles as the control for both pan and tilt lock-making one-handed adjustments simple and efficient.

Rock-Solid Construction with Professional Features

Constructed from high-quality CNC-machined aluminium, the GC-282AL offers a sturdy, vibration-resistant platform with a load capacity of up to 3 kg. The 28mm diameter tube extends from 410mm to 640mm, providing ample reach for creative positioning. A built-in adjustable anti-twist flange platform at each end includes three repositionable locking screws, ensuring your ball head or accessory plate remains perfectly secure. Both ends of the boom support standard 3/8"-16 threads, with a reversible 3/8"/1/4" adapter included for universal compatibility.

Locking Systems for Tilt, Pan & Friction

The GC-282AL features a locking wheel at the pivot point to prevent slipping in upright or vertical orientations, along with an integrated friction knob to fine-tune movement resistance-especially useful when supporting heavier gear. A dedicated grip knob at the rear locks both pan and tilt simultaneously, enabling quick setup changes on the fly.

Macro-Friendly and Video-Ready

Perfect for macro shooters who require precise forward/backward micro-movements, the GC-282AL allows seamless positioning without disturbing the rest of your setup. The ergonomic rubber grip makes it suitable for smooth manual panning, making this arm a capable choice for overhead video work as well.
