    Just wondering if anyone has found a jib arm which is portable but can take the weight of a Movi Pro with an F55 + matte box and accessories?

    How portable do you need? I've used the Matthews Intel-A-Jib out to 9 or 10', and a Port-a-jib goes 6'+. You can make a jib out of a speed-rail menace arm and a combo stand, but it's not quite as easy to operate.

    At some point, you have to have enough weights to counterbalance the Movi, and those can be hard weights, sandbags, shotbags, etc.

    The Feather Crane does indeed do the job if you don't run it at full length. I use it very often and it's a bargain for what you can do with it and the Movi Pro.
