The JB40 jib arm is the ideal solution for front operations as it provides outstanding stability and flexibility to users who work with heavy cameras onsite. Simply designed for quick and easy setup, the JB40 enables even the smallest crew to effortlessly and comfortably operate the jib.
The JB40 can support weights up to 20kg and is designed to minimize wobbling or bending of the arm, resulting in smooth and stable camera shots.
When folded and stored in its respective included carrying case, the jib arm is only about 120cm in length and easily fits in the trunk of a car. By sliding the main arm, the jib arm becomes remarkably compact with a radius of about one meter, making it perfectly suitable for any production site including sets with limited space. Although the jib arm only weighs 10kg, the case’s shoulder strap offers extra support and reduces the burden of transportation.
By changing the weight bar’s design from the former JB-30’s Screw-in type to a new Plug-in type for the JB40, assembly and break down time is dramatically decreased. In addition to Libec’s 100mm tripods, the JB40 jib arm can also be used with other brand tripods you may already own. With the included AD-75 adapter, a fluid head with 75-mm half-shell can be attached.
