​What is the working area footprint needed?
One important point to keep in mind is to calculate enough back space for the jib tail arm plus its operator, it is key for the operator to have sufficient work space to go freely around. Usually for Jib size 15ft. or bigger will be ideally to have a 12 x 12 open area.

What kind of cameras can be mount on a Jib?
A Jimmy Jib can handle almost all broadcast video cameras and film cameras within a weight of 50 pounds.

Lens compatibility...
ENG video lens are compatible with Jimmy Jib focus servos. Small size style cameras (like Panasonic HPX 170, Sony Z7U, Sony EX3 etc.) can be also used but remote zoom/focus control must be handled by each respective camera’s company accessories or aftermarket companies such as Varizoom. Film kit focus controls system can also be used for special setups like wireless remote focus (for ex sample BarTech) .

Cinematic Style? No problem!
