Cranes with camera panning ability at DVinfo.net

Are there any cranes out there that offer manual camera panning? It seems most just offer the tilt. Maybe that's standard and you need to get a motorized pan/tilt device. I talking about
the sub $1500 cranes. Thanks

There's a motorized remote control panning head available for the SkyCrane series. Call or write Bob Jones for details.

nice rig.

but the basic answer is.....

ANY crane can have camera panning... all you need to do is mount a head on the end of the crane, add an arm, and bingo.... a crane with manual camera panning.
