Cartoni Jibo is a portable three-section camera jib with a 20 kg (44 lb) payload. It weighs 15 kg (33 lb), folds down to 1.2 m (47″) and sets up in under three minutes. On top of the pan and tilt of the head it adds diagonal tracking and elevation from ground level up to 2 m (78″). It fits any 100 mm bowl tripod; tripod, spreader and fluid head are sold separately.
The extendable rear arm with counterweights balances the camera precisely, while the telescopic front arm sets the reach between 122 and 172 cm. A horizontal lock keeps the arm still until the camera is balanced.

The camera travels in an arc from floor level up to 2 m, adding diagonal tracking and elevation to the pan and tilt of the head.
The three sections fit together easily and the jib is ready to work.
The fluid head can be mounted on top of the arm, underslung or sideways.
The extendable rear arm takes up to 25 kg of rubberised weight plates.
Holds the arm level while you set up or change the camera.

The centre section carries the horizontal lock; the rear arm extends and holds rubberised counterweight plates.

The front tongue takes heads with a 100 mm bowl, and 75 mm with the AT950 reduction ring.

Jibo breaks down into the centre section, two arm sections, the counterweight and the head mount, which fit into a wheeled case.
The standard configuration includes a 100 mm bowl head mount that turns left or right and sits on top of or under the arm, plus two spirit levels. For remote control of camera and zoom there is a T-bar to clamp the controls on; for heavier set-ups Cartoni offers a Mitchell flat base adapter and an adapter for 150 mm bowl tripods. Tripod, spreader and fluid head are sold separately.
