SuperTechno 50 Crane

The SuperTechno 50 is one of the longest telescoping cranes in the world.  It has a maximum lens height of 50 feet and a telescope range of 38 feet.  The arm can be retracted to less than 12 feet when necessary.   Because of the reach of the arm you can place the camera anywhere in a 100 foot radius without moving the dolly.  The arm can be fully extended or retracted at the rate of 6 feet per second.  You have the option of operating the camera by the use of hand wheels, joystick or panbar.

The SuperTechno 50 can be mounted on the Panavision Multi Terrain Base, Chapman Olympian 3 (Remote Controlled Mobile Arm Base), and Chapman Maverick (Mobile Arm Vehicle).  It will support most 3-D rigs, remote heads and cameras.

The standard package includes the SuperTechno 50, dolly with motorized post and pneumatic wheels, 2-axis Z-Head, Preston FIZ, operator’s console, 14 inch color monitor, and all necessary cables.  Optional accessories include; Automatic Backpan Compensation, Digital HME intercoms, track, Panamount, nose mount, out-front mount, and weather cover.
