M-G-M'S New Camera Boom

John Arnold

A new type of intermediate-size boom incorporating a number of very desirable features has been placed in serivice at the M-G-M Studio. The device is of the crane-arm, or boom, type, with a boom 9 feet in length carrying an underslung camera mounting. The camera may literally be laid upon the stage floor, or lifted to a maximum height of 16 feet. The entire boom-arm may be raised or lowered bodily by means of a motor-driven helical hoist.
