Announcement of Hejnar Photo Video Rover - Preview

Hejnar Photo video Rover overview

For sure Chris Hejnar was restless during August as he was playing with small carts beside his other new products. This small cart, however is Hejnar Photo's answer for an inexpensive video Rover with adjustable wheel angles.
Hejnar video Rover was designed with the cost minded photographers in mind, making it easy to add new elements to their creativity.

Four wheels are attached at the end of two wheel bars which in turn are mounted on a main plate via the large lock knobs.

The angle of each wheel bar can be adjusted independently according to the desired curve path by the user, by loosening the large lock knobs and tightening them again in the new position. There are no preset positions for the wheel bars though.

The bottom side reveals the design simplicity with a countersunk screw hole for the ball head mounting screw, a couple of 1/4"-20 tapped holes on either side of the mounting screw and the screw holes for the wheel drive knobs.
