What is the iFootage Spider Crab?
The Spider Crab is iFootage's quick-release magic arm system. A single locking lever tightens every joint of the arm at once, so you position accessories freely and lock them solid in one move. It comes in 7-inch (MA3-4) and 11-inch (MA5-6) arms plus a matching quick-release adapter.
What can a Spider Crab magic arm hold?
Up to 6kg vertically (2.2kg horizontally). That covers on-camera monitors, LED lights, microphones, recorders and wireless receivers on a DSLR, mirrorless or cinema rig.
