Research Council Small Camera Crane

Andre Crot

The Research Council small camera crane was designed from requirements and specifications set down by the Council's Photographic Committee. While similar in principle to other cranes, it embodies an entirely new design and built-in safety features. The crane dolly is electrically driven. The boom arm is manually operated and can be panned through 360 degrees. The crane is large enough to have a lens height of from 2 to 10 feet from floor level and small enough so that, fully equipped, it will pass through a doorway 6 feet high and 36 inches wide.
