Hollywood Micro Dolly

The Hollywood Micro Dolly is an excellent alternative for those shoots when camera movement is a must but set-up time and location issues make the use of a full size dolly system impossible.  Weighing just 10lbs the kit comes woth:

  • Hollywood Micro Dolly T-Bar, capable of holding camera packages up to 100lbs
  • 13′ of spring-loaded, easy to assemble straight track
  • Track pads for rough surfaces
  • Track wedges for leveling
