For Immediate Release

Versatile K-Hill Z-Jib Now Available in the Midwest
Only at Schumacher Camera

Chicago, IL, February 14, 2003 — The K-Hill Zero Gravity Z-Jib is now available at Schumacher Camera in Chicago. Schumacher is the only rental house in the Midwest to carry this versatile Z-Jib, which has been called “the ultimate jib arm for the ultimate shooter.”

A true zero-gravity jib, when properly adjusted, the Z-Jib allows the camera to hover weightlessly wherever it is positioned. This puts control of the camera exactly where you want it — in the hands of the operator, who can effortlessly make truly straight sweeps — vertical, horizontal, diagonal — or any combination of moves, without having to move the dolly.

Formerly known as the Zero Gravity Boom Arm, the jib was dubbed "The Z-JIB" by the film industry, where its diversity and ease of operation made the K-Hill Z-Jib the preferred jib arm in making hundreds of movies and videos and thousands of commercials.


With its unique design, the K-Hill Z-Jib offers unlimited production possibilities, making it the perfect tool for a variety of applications — from tabletop to live performance to miniatures.
