Joby Swing

The Joby Swing is a motion control accessory targeted at enhancing the capabilities of mobile creators who want to inject dynamic slider motion into their videos. It's specifically tailored for smartphone use and not meant for traditional cameras. The Joby Swing provides smooth, controlled linear movement to help achieve cinematic slider shots with your mobile phone. These shots can significantly improve the production value of your videos. Similar to the Joby Spin, the Swing is designed only for use with smartphones. It does not support the weight or form factor of traditional cameras. For optimal results, the Swing is intended to be used with the GripTight™ ONE Phone Mount and BallHead 1K, which offer a secure grip for your mobile device and flexible angling for a broad range of motion shots. The accessory features the standard ¼''-20 tripod thread, allowing users to attach it to any full-size support system such as tripods or other stabilization equipment. The JOBY Motion app adds functionality and ease of use to the Swing. It assists in controlling the motion of the slider through your smartphone, and when used with the widest-angle camera on your phone, it allows you to capture extensive, seamless panoramas. The Swing is built to be compact, lightweight, yet robust. It's travel-friendly, which means it is easy to carry around and ideal for mobile creators who are frequently on the move.
