So sorry to say this - but apart from your last shot - all could be achieved hand-held.

While its true that these particular shots could be made handheld (although more difficult to achieve smoothly), the fact that your jib works opens up the potential for many shots that would be difficult to get otherwise. Good job.

i think the most of the shots, especially the second one is impossible to shot hand-held. maybe i don't have this talent :)

I disagree, the jib works great. There isn't a lot of room to use one indoors and it's his first test so cut him some slack. Looking forward to seeing some outdoor shots with this badboy!

No it can't. Not a chance. These shots cant be done nearly as fluid hand held, and a tripod cant make those movements. These are trademark camera jib movements. Unmistakably so. Good stuff.

Yeah man those shots look so pro with that jib! I'm very impressed. I wish my own enginuity was up to par so i could build one myself!
