Product description

The VariZoom VZSNAPCRANE16-CPJR3 is a professional 5.3-meter (16 ft) camera crane system paired with the Cinema Pro Jr K3 remote motion control head, delivering precision pan, tilt, zoom and focus control for high-end film and broadcast productions.

The VariZoom VZSNAPCRANE16-CPJR3 Camera Crane System combines the legendary SnapCrane 16 with the powerful Cinema Pro Jr K3 (CPJR-K3) remote motion control head, creating a turnkey solution for professional productions requiring long reach, extreme stability, and fully repeatable motion control.

Proudly manufactured in Austin, Texas, the SnapCrane 16 is engineered with modular, lightweight construction and precision-machined dovetail joints that allow fast, tool-free assembly in four different length configurations. Its cable-tensioned design, marine-grade stainless hardware, and reinforced truss-style arm deliver superior rigidity and smooth movement even at full extension.

The included Cinema Pro Jr K3 remote head elevates the system with advanced motion control features such as recordable and repeatable moves, built-in zoom and focus control, soft motion limits, and full parametric adjustment. Utilizing a precision enclosed drivetrain and pan slip-ring base, the CPJR-K3 enables continuous 360° rotation and ultra-smooth motion at any speed. The menu-driven control console allows operators to execute subtle cinematic moves or fast dynamic actions with total accuracy.

This complete crane kit includes the TCR100 crane tripod, DCR200 heavy-duty dolly with outriggers, and a professional carrying case, ensuring maximum safety, performance, and convenience on set. Designed for years of reliable field use, the VZSNAPCRANE16-CPJR3 is a true professional solution for film, television, live events, and broadcast applications.
