MAT Towercam XS

A compact column with a full-speed lift. It keeps a small footprint on the floor and still gives the camera a real rise to play with.

Is the XS the right size?

Send the position, the height you have to work with, and what needs to be in frame at the top of the rise. If another size fits better, we'll say so.
