Introducon
Almost every producon you see today has some type of crane shot in it because
shooters know how important it is to visualize story telling. Our Proaim Fly 22' is a
lightweight mul- funcon package that lets you boom your camera up and down,
move your camera in an innite number of 360 degree areas to incorporate various
angles easily. Its modular approach oers sophiscated versality to achieve steady
and balanced shots with cameras weighing up to 15kg/33lbs (without pan-lt).
Its unique interlocking joining system enables quick setup. It features a
well-engineered counterbalance system that uses standard weights (not included)
to maintain the balance of crane for aaining smooth and stable shots with
minimal eort. There’s a lot more that goes into this producon package, a rugged
dolly for dynamic moving shots.
