Portable and lightweight, the Sirui VTJ-1.8 Video Travel Jib is a telescopic jib arm that lets you perform smooth, sweeping crane-style shots without weighing down the production. Its tubes are constructed from 10-layer carbon fiber to keep the weight of the system to approximately 2.7kg, while also enhancing stability and reducing vibrations. The jib arm supports loads up to 4.5kg and includes two mounting plates that feature 1/4 inch-20 inches and 3/8 inch -16 inch tie-down screws for mounting a camera of flat-base head, as well as a 75mm bowl for mounting a 75mm ball head.

For increased versatility, the telescopic arm design provides a working arm length of 4.2 to 6 inches. To balance your camera load, the jib includes a container that can be filled with water or sand to achieve the proper counterweight. Also included is an additional platform at the central axis mounting a monitor, and a padded case to easily store and transport the entire system.

Note: For maximum stability, the jib arm should be mounted on a tripod that is able to fully support the weight of the arm, camera, and counterweight. A video tripod without a center column is recommended.
