Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. What are the dimensions of the platform?
A: The dimensions of the Dana Dolly Portable Dolly System with Universal Track Ends platform are 14 x 10" (35.6 x 25.4 cm).
Q: 2. Can I put a jib on this dolly system? Like a Kessler Crane Pocket Jib PRO?
A: There are options available for you to mount a small jib to the Dana dolly but you're going to run into some obstacles. The Dana dolly will support 100 pounds so you'll have to make sure your overall weight doesn't exceed that. Also, balance will be an issue so you'll have to make sure you have a person available to standby and support the rig. Personally, there are better options. But if you want to attach a small jib to the Dana dolly you can get a half-ball adapter to fit any 3/8 tripod or jib head to the dolly. I recommend Manfrotto's half-ball adapter with the short handle.
Q: 3. Does this come with a mounting accessory to be able to attach a tripod/fluid Benro Head?
A: The Dana Dolly Portable Dolly System Rental Kit with Universal Track Ends comes with bowl adapters for the following size tripod head bowls: 75mm, 100mm, 150mm. If your tripod head has a bowl with one of these sizes, it should mount appropriately. Otherwise, you may need a bowl for your head, such as the Benro 75mm Half Ball Adapter BH #BEBL75S https://bhpho.to/3JHWjMV
Q: 4. What would be a good hard case for this kit?
A: The Pelican 1560 Case with Foam Set (Black), B&H # PE1560FB would be a very viable hard case option for use with the Dana Dolly Portable Dolly System with Universal Track Ends.
Q: 5. I want to mount it to two regular Matthews C-stands. Do I need an adapter?
A: The Dana Dolly Portable Dolly System with Universal Track Ends (B&H# DADDUK1) comes with two Universal Track Ends and a Center Support which may be installed on 5/8" male spigots (A.K.A. baby pins) or into 1 1/8" receivers (A.K.A. junior receivers), both being common connectors on the tops of many light stands. For example, the Matthews Century C Stand with Mini Base, Black - 5.25' (1.6m) (B&H# MALSC20MBB) or Matthews Mini Slider Stand (38") (B&H# MALSMS) may be used for that purpose. Please keep the weight limits of any stand used in mind, and use a sandbag with the stand whenever appropriate.
Q: 6. Is it worth paying extra for the universal track ends instead of the original ?
A: As a long time movie professional, I can tell you Murphy's law applies to what happens on set. If you are in a controlled set up and you know for a fact what size of speed rail you always will be using, do save your money and get the original style.However, if you are working freelance, and someone else will be supplying the speed rail, save your self the grief of failure on set because the ends you have don't fit and you can't shoot. Get the universal. They are worth the piece of mind in that situation.
Q: 7. What track do I need to go with this, and how does the track attach to stands?
A: This system uses piping with a outside diameter between 1.5 to 1.9 . The kit includes the track ends and middle support to connect the system to stands like B&H # MASSLIDER. For assistance locating the proper track for this system feel free to email us at ask@bandh.com.https://bhpho.to/2IXDfai
Q: 8. what's the difference between speed rail and o.d. pipes?
A: O.D. stands for outside diameter. It is a spec for the kinds of pipes it is compatible with. This works with 1.5 to 1.9" O.D. Pipe.
Q: 9. What is the width of the track from the center of each pole support?
A: You can order the pipe in any length you want...after 7' you will need support...go to the Dana dolly site they provide you supplier info.
Q: 10. will the middle support support curved track?
A: It will support any standard 1.5 speed rail as long as the rails are no further than the standard 12 apart center to center. If you had speed rail custom shaped to be perfectly even curves on each rail across a 10' span, the center support would have no problem ensuring it holds as long as it is rigged properly.
