In Car Camera Mount

[mbjunior99]

I'm just trying to work out where to get an in car camera mount from. The only ones I can seem to find are the ones that either stick on the windscreen or outside the car. Some of you guys have done some in car footage before. Where did you get them from?

You could make yourself one of these,

but when I get some spare cash I am going to get one of these.

$50 doesn't seem too bad ...

that's US $ so postage from the States and exchange, you could have one here for less than $200.

Here is mine, plate Ally with nylon bushes for the head rest rod to go through, replacing the mounting head for a ball head.

The exchange rate should be pretty good right now shouldn't it? Shouldn't really cost that much to ship here. :banghead:

50.00 USD

53.9275 AUD

The other day the AUD was over 95 cents...

Cheaper than buying one in OZ

I think that's fairly reasonable. Thanks seventytwo

I've done a bunch of incar footage from race days in various cars. I use a manfrotto unit. It's a suction cup window mount. Works fantastically inside and outside the car (awesome for 'chase' footage) It was about $150 BUT I've had it for a few years and it works flawlessly with little to no movement, solid as a rock.

And why exactly are you wanting an in-car camera mount for, Chello? ;-)
