Q: 1. HI CAN IT'S WORK WITH SONY FS1 SUPER 35 ?

A: Yes, the ProAm USA Orion DVC210 12' Camera Crane can support up to 10lbs effectively.

Q: 2. On this boom, can you turn the camera left and right while in action?

A: You wouldn't turn left or right so much as swing left or right. Camera is always facing forward and the boom arm can rotate on the tripod base if the camera needs to see what is to the left or right of it.

Q: 3. When looking at photo #3 (i.e. the camera mounting plate) I see it is attached to the left side of the arm. I have one particular situation where I need it to be on the right side of the arm... I'm shooting a parade from a sidewalk on the south side of the street, with camera facing west. For this event, I need my camera facing in the opposite direction. So, my first question is, is it possible to flip the camera bracket over 180 degree, and at the same time, rotate it so that it faces to the right, instead of the left. Hope I made that clear enough.If that won't work, I have a Bescor MP-101 Motorized Pan Tilt Head that I could mount on the camera plate in it's default configuration, BUT, would the height of the Bescor MP-101 allow a camera (Canon XA-10 or Canon G30) mounted on top of it to clear the arm, hardware, etc., so the camera could face to the right?

A: According to ProAm: The camera bracket could be switched to the opposite side, but it would involve moving the handle to the opposite side as well, which would take some time and tools. I think the best solution would be, using the DVC210 with the boxy camera mount, attach your Bescor Pan Tilt Head and the camera on top of that. With the Extension Plate of the DVC210 added to the camera mounting bracket, he or she could even mount the Pan Tilt and camera in an upside down position.

Q: 7. How much counterweight would I need to make this feel floating without the camera? Can't seem to find an answer. Thanks

A: It would really depend on the payload that you chose to work with. And this is different for every user. It uses plate weights or Dumbell weights that you would find in Sporting Stores.

Q: 8. Can this be used for either the canon XA-10 or XF-105 Camcorder?
