Geometrisk infästning för fjädrarna, som tillsammans med de nya kullager, radikalt minskar överföringen av rörelser från operatören till riggen.
Med avtagbar och låsbar armpost (i rotation) som dels gör det lekande enkelt att byta dimension eller till en annan längd på posten och dels gör det möjligt att ge olika karaktär på hur släden jobbar i förhållande till armen.
X-serie har en något större räkvidd på 73cm i förhållande till de ursprungliga G-armar och övriga armar på markanden.
Unik "Ride Control" för justering av armens karaktär.
Kapacitet på 5,8-32kg (hela riggen med batterier och kamera). Inklusive en vadderat väska/påse i kraftig Nylon Codura. Egenvikt 4,9kg.
Kommer med två olika armpost adaptrar som då passar:
5/8" / .625 post adapter (t.ex. M-2/PRO/3A/EFP).
3/4" / .740 post adapter (t.ex. Master Series/Ultra/M-1).
Vår skandinaviska "masterlärare" Jerry Holway ger en snabb introduktion av G-70x armen:

And now an English version:
THE G-70X ARM – Performance and Durability Backed by the Best Arm Warranty in the Business.
The G-70x is the third release of Tiffen’s G-Series arms. The revolutionary, patented Geo spring geometry optimizes performance throughout its lifting range. It tames high/low arm travel with adjustable-length crankshafts that dynamically rock the spring termination as the arm is boomed up or down. Powered by coaxial titanium spring sets, the G-70x arm smoothly carries any load from 13 to 70 pounds (5.8 to 32 kg). The all new bearing performance enhancements on the G-70x arm makes even the slowest camera moves ultra smooth.
The design criteria for the G-70x arm:
Light weight (10.8 lbs / 4.9 kg), user maintainable, and a 29 inch (73 cm) boom range. It has soft bumpers at each end of travel so the arm can be boomed right to its limits without shot-disturbing clunks. The G-70x also has a Ride control that adjusts the iso-elastic™ response of the arm.
G-70x innovations include:
Arm posts are locked in place by a single lever, so switching arm posts is quick and easy. Actually, all parameters are user adjustable. This quick-change mechanism also has an adjustable drag for the post’s rotation, from completely free to totally locked. At the socket block end of the arm is the, “kick back” link, which gets the arm further out of the way as the sled crosses the operator’s body, and keeps the arm from banging against the stops in normal operation. Increased structural strength, improved geometry, tough type III hard anodize on the main arm components, and sturdy component design helps provide years of lasting durability.
The net result:
The smoothest, best performing durable arm ever built!
Unparalleled service and support as the new G-70x arm comes with an industry surpassing standard 3-year full parts and labor warranty that includes all components including springs and socket blocks. The transferrable standard warranty also includes one complimentary factory tune-up to insure your arm is performing at its best.
