Varizoom Snapshot 16-100

[Timo Flink]

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but here goes ...

I need to buy a camera crane for a system that has a weight of 10.5KG (23lbs). Yes, buy, not rent. I was thinking of Varizoom Snap 16-100 set. However, what exactly comes with the set? None of the descriptions I have found on the net have anything on cables, counterweights etc. So, if I get one, how much more stuff do I have to buy? Does anybody know? Thx.

You will likely need counter weights, milk crates to hold weights, video monitor, focus/iris/zoom controls, cable kit. So you are probably looking at between $11k - $15k for everything needed depending on focus/iris control needed.

If it were me I would be looking for a higher end used kit for less money. But then I'm a wee bit frugal.
