Arm Tiffen G-70
The G-70 Arm is simply amazing. Lightweight – 11 lbs – and hand-adjust- able, it lifts from 12 to 70 pounds. The new ‘Ride’ knob alters iso-elasticity so for the first time, users can precisely set how the arm behaves, regardless of the weight carried. The unique “Geo” feature, alters spring geometry as you boom up and down to make the G-70 the smoothest, most well-behaved arm ever, throughout its astounding vertical range of 32 inches! The new tool-free arm post holder is quick and positive, and its independent drag control delivers the precise rotation resistance you want – from completely free to totally locked, even when you change posts. At the other end of the arm, the new ‘kick-back’ link reduces your “doorway”
clearance and keeps the arm from banging against you on the run.
Arm Twiga Cam 4k
The arm for steadycam Twiga K-4 has been designed with pantograph concept with springs in tension. The designers, in addition to using innovative materials and taking care of the sizing with extreme rigor and impeccable precision, have always had as main objective the ergonomics of the arm, the well-being of the operator and the maximum load capacity that can be reached. In this way, the final result is an extremely compact and light arm that will allow the operator maximum freedom of movement also thanks to our book-like arm closure, a much appreciated feature. The arm has an isoelastic excursion of about 400 mm; naturally, this isoelasticity is adjustable in order to allow the operator to work with a more or less reactive arm depending on the use. In terms of weight loads, the Twiga K-4 is a very versatile arm, in fact it covers a range of loads from 7 to 32 kg, simply by adjusting the appropriate knob, without the need to purchase an additional spring kit. , thus adding a temporal as well as an economic advantage.
