Digital Juice , announced today the release of the Gemini Dual-Action Jib. This lightweight telescoping camera jib system offers you an elegant, portable, dual-purpose solution that allows you to operate your camera and direct jib motion from either the front or back of the jib. This dual-action flexibility allows you to customize each shot to your production's needs and to your own shooting style. The telescopic design of the unit allows for shots from as high as 12 feet while still collapsing to a portable travel and storage size of just 49.
Constructed of black electro-coat high-strength aluminum and stainless steel, the Gemini Dual-Action Jib is an attractive, sturdy yet lightweight addition to your gear arsenal. The versatility of shooting with a jib allows you to raise your camera above the crowd, take sweeping ground-level shots and provide your viewers with a different perspective, says Viv Beason, President of Digital Juice.
In its standard configuration, with camera cradle attached, the jib can handle a camera payload from 10-25 pounds, depending on the length of the jib arm extension. With the fluid head adapter attached for front-of-jib operation, the total capacity of ball head and camera is in the range of 11-20 pounds. This provides a wide range of possibilities for DSLR and small to mid-size cameras shooting on location or in the studio.
Using the standard camera cradle, operators can reposition the jib's tie-rod to in one of three positions to allow for three different style shots. Set the control rod to normal, to lock the cameras tilt to the desired inclination throughout the move. Or, move the control rod to the fixed position, to force the camera lens to stay locked throughout the jib's vertical arch. Manual movement allows the operator to lock down the camera at any position or allows for the operator to decide what the camera sees while it dips and sweeps.
For even more creative options, the Gemini Jib can be transformed into a front operated system, says Beason. Just attach the included fluid head adapter, mount your tripod head to it, and move the jib's control rod to the center position on the jib's base. Now you can move the jib arm while simultaneously panning or tilting the camera to achieve those free floating Steadicam-style stabilizer shots, but without the cost. You can also add even more complex motion to your footage by using the Gemini Jib in conjunction with the Digital Juice Orbit Dolly FlexTrac & Wheel System or Caster Wheels.
