Video review: The Wally Dolly

By technical editor Matt Allard:

WALLY DOLLY REVIEW from Matthew Allard on Vimeo.

The Wally Dolly has been a firm favourite of news and documentary shooters, particularly British and Australians, for many years. It is highly portable and incredibly simple to set up. In this video review I show how to assemble it and also how it can make low angle dolly shots possible.

For more info on the Wally dolly you can head to their website.
