Rough test of iFootage M1 mini crane

The base of the thing (just to the right of that video head handle) has three mounting points in different sizes, so it will basically attach to any flat base tripod or baseplate you have.

It does not come with a tripod, so you need to cover that. I strongly suggest to use one with a spreader of some sort to stabilize it even further. I used the Manfrotto 058B which is decent, alas a bit heavy to carry around by hand.
The video head I'm using in the video is the Manfrotto 128LP... an old thing yes, and very much in the low end of video heads, but it has served me well.

Notice also, that with these shorter jibs; if you decide to mount the camera sideways for what ever reason, the arc of the travel will be more prominent than with a longer jib.
