Up for sale is the Stanton Jimmy Jib (http://www.jimmyjib.com/). This jib can be configured in various lengths from 3' to 24' in three foot increments. The length is actually refereed to as "The Reach" which is measured form the center post to the head. Additionally, the Heavy Duty Tripod can telescope about an additional 3' raising the entire Jib to give additional height up to 30'. If you want additional height, extension kits can be purchased from Stanton directly. The entire setup comes with complete with Remote Head, Joystick Controller, Leveler, Control Cables, Strut Cables for various Lengths, Battery Pack with Charger and Transformer, 365lbs of Weights & Cases. The entire thing is compact enough for me to comfortably pack into my minivan and still have plenty of room for all my other gear. Although I have never had need for it, It the Remote Head System gives operator remote control of pan, tilt, zoom, focus, iris and VTR start/stop for Canon and Fujinon Cameras/Lenses. The Four Wheel Dolly can be configured in either two or four wheel, crab steering and includes: 10in dual sport rubber wheels (works well in the studio and on location), push bar, cable guards, stabilizers and soft top. Max Camera Payload is 50lbs & I have never had any issues. It's been a while, but as you can see it can additionally be mounted to Mitchel sticks if you require a smaller jib in tighter locations.
Retail on this seems to be about $17,000 (Although I could have sworn I paid closer to $20k in the day, but whatever
) So I'm asking $12,500 OBO for a quick sale. The Item is located in the greater LA area and I am hoping for a local sale, as shipping would be astronomical. Please note not all the equipment in the photos are included in the sale, they are simply for demonstrating the jib in action. Additionally, I would make myself available to instruct in building, leveling & balancing it. It's a fairly straight forward operation once you do it for the first couple times. It comes with a user manual and an instructional DVD, but I found them to be lacking in some respects...
I cant begin to describe the production value this has brought to my productions. Here's a link to a video I just tru together: https://vimeo.com/117348651
If you PM me, please make a post saying so TYIA!!!
EDIT: Bonus, if you are a local, Ill pass of any clients that call me to you
