Dollies and track

J.L. Fisher Model 10 and Model 11 dollies

The two reference J.L. Fisher dollies: the Model 10 for payload and travel, the Model 11 for tight spaces.

J.L. Fisher is the Anglo-American standard and many international camera departments ask for it by name. We keep the Model 10, with greater capacity and arm travel, and the Model 11, narrower and lighter for stages with little margin.

Worth knowing. J.L. Fisher state on their own spec sheet that dimensions are approximate: they vary with adjustments, risers and wheels fitted. For critical door-clearance or load calculations, we measure the actual unit before it leaves the warehouse.
