anyone have any good suggestions for effectively mounting a camera onto a kite?
have the ATC-2K waterproof version. ![]()
thanks
1) Go the pro mount from www.camrig.com
2) make your own...
3) try
www.seabreeze.com.au/Articles/Kitesurfing/Setting-Up-a-Kite-Camera_1190269.aspx
4) or .. put a tripod bolt through a helmet and mount it on your head
If you use the search function and enter "camera" or W30 you'll find more info...
Here's some piccies of my head cam! (Note the highly sophisicated safety leash) ![]()
use the velcro strap and mount that came with camera. Put it on your middle strut. Takes some fiddling to get angle right. Try mount about 100mm back from leading edge, and face camera downwards and forward toward leading edge. Its time consuming to get it right but when you do try to mark angle on strut with permanant marker and where you put mount.
I have a camrig set up for sale for $60 plus P&P, used twice. Its too much of a hassle to get any good shots. PLus I now have access to a top photographer.....
Thanks
PS. Have a PENTAX OPTIO W20 complete with 2gb card that works well with the camrig for $250 (normally $380)
