Buddy with Classic Body

The Buddy Plus dolly is a versatile Film and Video dolly. Compact measurements, extreme stability and variability will convince even demanding professionals.

The body is the same that we have on our Classic Plus dolly. Therefore we have maximum compatibility to exisiting accessories, such as platforms, carrying bars, etc.

Ergonomic Design

All control elements are coloured to be easily recongized and easy to handle. The bolts can be fixed in „open“ position and can be adapted to the tracks perfectly – especially in curves.

The ergonomic design facilitates intuitive working. Switch-over is completely done without tools. So the Buddy Plus can be operated in narrow gauge (36 cm) or in wide gauge (62 cm) by using the locking pin.

Combi-Wheels..Kombi-Räder

Reinvented..Neu erfunden

....With our combi wheel unit, the dolly can be driven onto the track without lifting it. Various wheels for different undergrounds are available. All single wheels and even the complete combi wheel can be changed quickly and easily due to dove tail connections. An integrated „BRAKE lever“ will brake the studio- or air wheels simultaneously with the track wheels. ..Mit unserer Combi-Rad-Unit ist es ganz einfach möglich den Dolly auf die Schienen zu setzen ohne ihn darauf heben zu müssen. Spezielle Gummierungen der Studio- und Schienenräder sorgen für saubere Dollyfahrten und geringe Rollwiderstände. Alle Einzelräder, sowie auch das komplette Kombirad können schnell und einfach gewechselt werden. Der integrierte Bremshebel bremst das Studio- bzw. Luftrad gleichzeitig mit den Schienenrädern. ....

Crab & steer mechanism

Patented and loved worldwide.

Crab is included as a standard. The Steer mode can be ordered as an option.
The biggest points of difference of our patented Crab & Steer mechanism are perfect, mathematically calculated elliptical steering sprockets. With them the wheels are in a steering geometry (see picture below).

4 wheel steering

Steer

2 wheel steering

100% Curve

This steering geometry ensures perfect and smooth circular curves without drift, noise, high rolling resistance or even blocking wheels. Other dollys are not able to move the dollys in tight curves, because the wheels’ position is parallel and so it blocks!

Changing Steering mode is easily done by shifting the blue “Crab + Steer” lever.

PLATFORMS..PLATTFORMEN

Love at first sight..Liebe auf den ersten Blick

....The versatile platforms can be assembled in unprecidented ways. They can be mounted on the steering sleeves to create a flat surface, completely without trip hazards. Machined from solid, each component offers fast and non play connection. Our platforms fit for all Panther column Dollies and Magnum Dolly. A case for transport is available. ..Die vielseitigen Plattformen können in noch nie dagewesener Weise zusammengesetzt werden. Sie lassen sich an den Lenkhülsen so montieren, dass eine ebene Fläche entsteht, ganz ohne Stolperkanten. Aus dem Vollen gefräst, bietet jede Komponente eine schnelle und spielfreie Verbindung. Unsere Plattformen passen für alle Panther Säulendollies und den Magnum Dolly. Ein Koffer für den Transport ist erhältlich. ....
