Cam equipement question
I am trying to find a certain type of stand for my camcorders. Has anyone ever heard of a gooseneck cam stand? Ideally, it would be straight (adjustable) like a microphone stand, then have a gooseneck attachement on top. Went to a camera store here in town and they did not have one or heard of one. They gave me a brochure for a company called "photekusa", but the website on the brochure is down. lmao Any help or links would be appreciated.

Re: Cam equipement question
I am trying to find a stand that uses space like a microphone stand with a weighted bottom, no tripod legs sticking out everywhere, with a gooseneck on top to attach the camera. The gooseneck part is to make it easy for quick close range angle changes. I want to use 3 of these for shoots, at different placements on the set. The footage to be edited in a non-linear video program. I realize I may have to build it myself, just thought i might ask so I didn't re-invent the wheel ...

Re: Cam equipement question
My reservation with that, is the stability of the goose neck. I have never seen anyone mount a camera on a goose neck before. There are so many clamps, super poles, tripods with jib arms, and any number of gaffer solutions that would give you a more stable platform. I am sure you have a good application, but I would gaffer tape a camera to a mic stand on that goose neck and try it out first.

Re: Cam equipement question
I'm not really understanding what your trying to do?
and I've never heard of these goose neck tripod. its a good idea thought I use these, There all remote controlled to pan and tilt through out the room, this way the performers can do they're own zooming, pan or tilt as requested by customers. It probably can be tweeked to stick on the head of most surfaces. "if ya know what your doing, without breaking it" http://www.trackercam.com/ |

The goosenecks come in diffrent grades and widths. I figured I would need a larger one than usual for a camcorder to stay in place. |

Re: Cam equipement question
Is that seriously the best one you could come up with? I'm disappointed and after I gave you a compliment too.
