Camera Stand

[bluey33]

Any of you guys know where i can buy a stand or something like a stand to hold the camera in the car? I thought they would make something that could latch onto headrest then clamp camera...

Yeah I guess it depends on your camera, and yourself haha..

I wouldnt trust myself enough to make some thing strong and sturdy to hold my camera..

Id be to worried it would fall apart and then id lose $1k worth of camera

Here is another one using the child restraint bolts on parcel shelf

try manfrotto superclamp and Magic arm

they should be available from most good camera shops

can be mounted just about anywhere (under your car too)

Thanks heaps for your help guys! I have been lookin for a while for this kind of thing. I know what you mean S!im, im lucky my camera is worth bugger all... Looking at gettin one soon though. maybe the canon 400D

I love my 400D

400d is a great camera - my brother has one

i would recommend getting the battery grip for it if you get one - makes it feel better in your hand

Good way to spend about $300

i've got a couple of magic arms there great.

Also got a sucker mount so i can mount cameras to panels and glass.

I'm hoping to do some wicked skyline events videos at some stage.

Don't know who to talk to or where to start tho!

Myself And Mizzi have made a stand coming off the headrest. Will post pics when i take em and footage.

Now we have to try and work out how to do one with suction caps for outside shots.
