MOVIEBIRD 45FT CRANE is a highly versatile telescopic camera crane widely used in film sets and TV studios.

Key Features and Benefits:

Versatile and Adaptable: It can extend its arm length from 35 feet to 45 feet (10.67m to 13.72m) in minutes, making it suitable for a variety of shots and environments. It maintains the same dolly footprint as smaller MovieBird models, simplifying setup.

Smooth and Precise Operation: Equipped with a patented belt drive system, high-end digital electronics, and a specialized rail system, it ensures ultra-smooth, quiet, and precise telescopic movements. It also features a leveling system controlled by digital laser encoders for true horizontal head positioning.

High Compatibility: Fully compatible with all models of remote heads and various camera types, from DSLR to IMAX, and can even mount moving light sources for special effects.

Portability: Despite its size, it is designed for relatively easy transport, often fitting in a standard 16-ton truck or a bespoke trailer when disassembled.

Advanced Control: Offers nine digitally controlled speed settings with logarithmic movement fades and the ability to program the actual range of movement. Some models include a “virtual wall” (Straight Line Compensation – SLC) to eliminate crane arc movement, offering normal, vertical, and 3D operating modes for precise movements.

Safety: Manufacturer recommends operation by at least two trained technicians for arm ranges above 30 feet.
