Q: 9. Has anyone had experience front operating the jonyjib jr? I need a short jib to use with my fluid head now, but i like the expandability of the jonyjib. My concern is that if I mount my fluid head to the camera platform, then perform a jib up maneuver, the camera will tilt toward the fulcrum instead of going straight up. If anyone can share experience of this type, I would greatly appreciate it.

A: When raising the front of the JonyJib Jr, with a fluid heads pan arm, this problem would only exist with really lightweight cameras: I.e. if you raised the camera too quickly the leveling cable could get slack and tilt the camera instead of just raising the arm. If you have a heavier camera this is not an issue. It can be mitigated, for lighter cameras (5 lbs or less), by adding some weight to the camera platform.
