EZ Mount Monfrotto Mod

This mount gets me awesome locked down shots from about anywhere. This is the modified EZ mount design for adaptation with a ball head. I gave one away in my first contest and now I show how to build one yourself.

@mattchapman You can't worry about what people think when you show up to a shoot with a DSLR camera. I recently directed a music video that was shot with a Canon 5D Mark II. They used a Canon 5D to shoot rapper Rick Ross's video for Blowing Money Fast too...I shoot with a Nikon but am looking into the new Panasonic AG-AF100 though...

@cre8tivity06 I hear ya. I have been reading about the AG-AF100 too. I might be getting one.

Here's a question: How hard would it be to make something like this, but with two T-fittings somehow attached side by side, to create a slider rail system?

Great way to mount your camera on to your bike handle bars if you wanna record your bike ride.
