Four camera head mount plates are supplied, allowing up to two cameras per arm and four cameras in total. Each mount plate can be rotated 360 degrees around the horizontal arm and locked in position.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe upper horizontal arm is connected to the internal counterweight balancing system. The lower horizontal arm operates independently and is not counterbalanced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo STA 01-350MK2-TS user-positionable, clamp-on travel stops with spring-type shock absorbers are included. One stop is installed below each arm to establish its lower travel limit and help prevent collisions between the arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system provides rapid vertical and horizontal camera positioning to accommodate different camera array configurations and lens focal lengths. Each vertical carriage provides up-and-down movement, while each horizontal carriage allows left-and-right extension of its arm. Tape scales on the horizontal arms and vertical column support precise, repeatable positioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe center column is 240 cm \/ 94.4 in. high. Horizontal arm widths are specified below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe base is preconfigured to accept the optional STA-01-350LW-10 Leg Weight Set for added stability. This concealed, all-steel “bolt-under” set includes three individual weights, each weighing 10 kg \/ 22 lb. One weight bolts beneath each base leg, providing a total of 30 kg \/ 66 lb of additional base weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser-positioned vertical carriage with precision smooth-motion ball bearings and secure axis lock with one user brake knob\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUser-positioned horizontal arm\/bar carriage with precision smooth-motion ball bearings and secure axis lock with two user brake knobs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision manufactured with attention to detail using CNC machinery.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow center-of-gravity base with foot-operated brake plungers to quickly secure the base and dampen vibrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium dual-stage bearing casters provide easy movement around the studio.

Smooth ball bearing movements are beneficial when shooting with high-resolution cameras and camera backs. Other systems that don’t use ball bearings often have too much play and do not provide smooth movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: I already have a tripod.

It offers rock-solid support for cameras of all formats and enables fast, precise camera positioning that outshines traditional tripods. Move your camera from floor to ceiling in seconds, traverse the entire studio in minutes, or recreate the exact perspective you captured weeks ago. When it comes to speed, ease, and precision, nothing beats a modern imaging system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDue to this product’s large size and specific packaging and handling requirements, it is sold as \u003cstrong\u003enon-returnable\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaging with Recyclable Materials\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudio Titan respects the environment. When selecting packaging materials, Studio Titan prefers using recyclable materials to reduce environmental impact. The column box blue outer plastic is polypropylene (PP), resin identification code 5, which is recyclable. Product boxes and protection edges are corrugated cardboard, recyclable through depots, municipal curb-side programs, and private recyclers. Internal securing foam blocks are PE (polyethylene foam) and are 100% recyclable. Plastic bags are LDPE (low-density polyethylene), identification code 4 (check local acceptance). Yellow plastic strapping is PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and is fully recyclable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecycled Materials Used Inside the Products\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudio Titan respects the environment. When manufacturing products, Studio Titan prefers using raw materials mixed with recycled materials to reduce environmental impact. For aluminum components (vertical column, horizontal column, legs, die-cast carriages, base, cap, and head-mount plates), the typical ratio is 70% recycled to 30% raw aluminum. This globally adopted ratio provides good strength and finish. For steel components (circular or square columns, hardware, casters, gears, and counterweight), we have confirmed the steel includes recycled materials combined with raw materials. We are not able to provide the exact percentage, as each product uses a different ratio based on its end use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProp. 65 Warning Label Explanation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor clients in the State of California, we have voluntarily added Prop. 65 warning labels to prevent unintentional misrepresentation.
