Dodgy Handlebar Camera Mount

This is the dodgy handlebar camera mount I've used to make most of my videos so far, usually with acceptable results.
Cheap as chips and fun to play around with!

Cool. Where did you buy that camera mount clamp?

[peeteey]

Hey man, I love these things. I have two so I can clamp two cameras on at once.

They're often called a C clamp tripod and there are some on Ebay. Some camera shops have them too.

Highly recommended!

How's Norway? I really really want to go there and ride alot and play lots of music. Sounds like a great place and all the people I've met from there are fantastic.

Cool. All I got is a old sony handycam 8mm. Maybe some kind of gyroscopic mount might work ok for a cam mount?

[peeteey]

Gyroscopic would be interesting and possibly a fun project. Dunno if it'd be needed tho, depends on how heavy your cam is and if it has stabilisation or not.

You can get a suction cup tripod that attaches to the top of your tank. Check 88hawaii's earliest few vids. I think he has a vid about that setup before he changed it.

I found a vid about a guy who made a kind of gyro mount for his bycicle. Will try to find the link for you ... :)

Cheers, I have to get my hands on a couple of those myself.

Norway is allright, thanks :-) Lots of nice motorcycle roads, but the season is way too short.

Thanks for showing the awesome handlebar mount. I liked the way you made that shoelace to attenuate the vibration. Very nice job.
