Breaking down the essential partsWhat is the Polecam Starter Pack PLUS (PSP+)?
The Polecam system uses Carbon Fibre tubes that slot together to create a reach from 1.5m (5’) to 8m (26’). The System is designed around a modular aluminium ‘back-end’.
A precision electronic, remote controlled, Pan/Tilt head fits to the carbon poles creating a simple yet effective Camera Jib.
Whether you want to shoot from the back of a car, on a boat or the edge of a mountain, the Polecam System gets into tight spots where a traditional crane would be out of the question.
Another great advantage is that the Polecam Starter Pack PLUS (PSP+) is supplied in a custom made foam which fits straight into a Peli 1770.
Polecam Starter Pack PLUS (PSP+) contents:
There are three new pan & tilt heads to choose from when selecting your Polecam Starter Pack PLUS (PSP+).
The Narrow Head version is ideal for Minicam’s and split head cameras such as the IndieCam, I O Industries, Panasonic & Toshiba.
The Wide Head is designed for D-SLR use and is also great for 3D with two mini cams side by side using our optional 3D mount plate.
The Long Head is designed to cater for cameras such as the Canon C300/500, Blackmagic, RED cameras, the AF101 from Panasonic & Sony’s 700.
(The PSP+ is the PSP with a Monitor Clamp & Battery Plate included)

The Long, Wide & Narrow Heads are designed to double as a fixed remote head by simply unscrewing the Polecam drop arm, removing a small plate and attaching it to the top of the head. This reveals an industry standard 3/8” threaded hole.
You can mount the inverted head on a clamp, stand or similar bracket then hook up the joystick, plug in some power, connect the video and away you go.

The Wide Head from Polecam is a versatile remote controlled pan and tilt unit ideal for D-SLR type cameras, Blackmagic Cinema Camera & 3D setups.
The Wide Head benefits from very precise electronic speed control. A full 360º from 6 seconds to 45 minutes.
PR017 - Starter Pack PLUS with Long HeadThe Long Head is a versatile remote controlled pan and tilt unit ideal for cameras like Canon’s C300/500 and Sony’s 700
These cameras are “tall” due to the view finder position; is also compatible with RED cameras. The head benefits from very precise electronic speed control delivering a full 360º from 6 seconds to 45 minutes.
All three Heads use a 12 bit PID motion controller via a closed loop configuration meaning you get extremely precise speed control. A ‘ramping & damping’ profile is built-in to achieve super smooth start, acceleration and stop functions.
Long Head Dimensions
Weight: 1.42kg / 3.15lbMax payload: 3.6kg / 8lbOverall height (pivot to base): 585mm / 23.03”Max load height on cradle: 325mm / 12.79”Max load width on cradle: 200mm / 7.87”Base plate: 100mm / 3.94” depthSlotted centre with two additional slots either side at 20mm/ 0.78” intervals, slot width is 6.5mm / 0.255”
The main difference between the Wide and Narrow head is the lower profile for Minicam’s and the use of different gearboxes and gearing.
The Narrow Head has a maximum pan speed is 2x faster than the Wide Head so it completes a 360-degree pan in 3 seconds. The slowest Pan speed is 360 degrees in 15 minutes which is about 15 times slower than the older Polecam heads.
