Kessler Pocket Jib™ Available for Preorder

Nifty jib Chris, what's the max. load it can carry? How much does both pocket dolly and pocket jib weight together?
 
Gabe - Thanks. Payload is at least 25 pounds, but we are going to do some further testing to see if we would recommend using with heavier payloads.

Weight of both together is a little over 30 pounds, with the Swivel Mount. I need to get an exact weight next week.

We now have a short instructional video online for the Pocket Jib.

Hi Chris.

Is it possible to just leave the pocekt dolly attached to the pocket jib, so if you want to quickly switch from one to the other?

Cheers
 
Expect an order from me the other side of xmas when I get some things sorted - I notice on your website for international shipping the great land of Oz, isnt listed. Do you do it on a by address basis?
 
Thanks Noel, looking forward to it. Yeah, I just have to calculate the shipping manually, because of package size limitations with US Postal Service.

Feel free to drop me an e-mail with any questions at the "international@.." address or my address "chris@...".
 
Alrighty then, just placed an order for the PJ/PD/KP combo; looking forward to putting them to work on my next project Chris!
 
Look what Santa left under, er, I mean over the tree :Drogar-Happy(DBG):

Handles my 30+ lb (including tripod head) 35mm rig with 75 lbs of counterweight with the Pocket Jib arm fully extended all the way. The Pocket Dolly also handles the weight very nicely as well. Extremely smooth movement with both products. Very fast setup; just a few minutes at most... Also, the K-Pod is positively the most sturdiest set of legs I have ever come across; perfect mate for the Pocket Jib and Dolly.

Great job and worth the wait Kessler!
