Need Car Mount (Side)

[Luis Ortiz]

What's a good car mount (side windows) for the RED camera? Is anybody familiar with these models?

Thanks.

I have the second one listed and I've used it on a few different commercials. Bought it from Filmtools as listed. It will give you a variety of different angles that are pretty interesting especially if you are using a wide lens. I've also combined the kit with additional gobo arms that are either longer or shorter depending on the camera position. After a few takes we always give the suction cups an additional pump but it alway seems to hold in place without the extra pump......I just don't like my camera dangling on the side of a car, even with a teather attatched it's a little un-nerving.

In that second link, what do the consider a medium weight camera? I would guess 30-60 lbs, but I might be wrong...

A now discontinued three point mounting kit. I'm sure you can figure out what you need.

Excellent! Thanks for the feedback, guys.

I went with the filmtools but with 5 cups for a commercial we did a month or two ago. I also had the drive on there (no missed frames) and was planning on playing a joker but switched to kinos on the header. Five was a little extra insurance ... handy when one of the seals blew.

We were pulled over by the cops (which I think had more to do with where we were driving) but the director loved it and it's in the final piece.

There's proof.....some things just happen.
