F27 TELESCOPIC CRANES
The Filmotechnic F27 Telescopic Camera Crane has an ultra-lightweight Carbon Fiber Arm that weighs only 198lbs. Fully operational with base, the F27 weighs 560lbs including a remote head / camera package. The F27 has an incredible reach from 5ft to 27ft and features "Wall" Straight Line compensation. These cranes are easily shipped or broken down to fit into tight places such as elevators, boats, hallways, etc.
We have THREE F27 Cranes to serve productions around the world.
“I recently had the opportunity to work with the FILMOTECHNIC F27 telescopic crane on “Clarice” for CBS. I was immediately impressed by its size and versatility. We carried it for the duration of our Season 1 Production Schedule and we took advantage of it whenever it was appropriate. It has a quick setup time and it can come apart quite easily so it can be transported into spots some heavier telescopic cranes are unable to go. A team of 8 was able to disassemble the arm from the base and bring it to a second story of a building and reassemble it in under 40 minutes. The arm also worked seamlessly with our gimbal, the RONIN 2 which we also carried full time on the show. I highly recommend the crane and I look forward to being able to use it again in the future."
