Ultimate GoPro / DSLR rig
Hey guys, I spent several months working on the perfect mount for my gopro and DSLR. I wanted to be able to capture video while shooting photography or shoot with both at the same time. I really wanted to retain my ability to used my RODE mic and DSLR external flash. At the same time I wanted to use a LED light, the gopro and the wifi remote all at the same time. After months of purchasing parts and trying out all the different mounting options I cam up with a build that has worked perfectly for me and have built 2 others for friends of mine. I have been able to see what parts were junk and what actually worked so I truly believe I have built a solid mount. Here is a rough list of the parts I used.
-Special order mounting plate x1 -Special order elbow bracket x2 -DSLR side grip handle x1 -GoPro tripod mount x2 -GoPro Wifi remote cradle -5 DSLR mounting screws -2 Stainless mounting screws -1 large DSLR mounting screw -3 Rubber/Metal fused concave washers -1 Rubber washer Attachements Used -DSLR Canon 70D -6x6 square LED light -GoPro Hero3 Black -GoPro Wifi Remote -RODE mic -External DSLR Flash As you can see from the pictures I have attached, this set up allows for key things to happen. -Ability to shoot with the GoPro and have the Remote mounted behind it has a monitor for all the front screen data -Ability to shoot in lo light -Ability to retain the top hot shoe -Extra Grip Point -Nicely condensed -Can be easily torn down and put back together with just a coin, no screw driver needed -Adjustability is simple when sliding components around for perfect mounting options http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5472/1...33e761edce.jpg Front GoPro Rig, on Flickr http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5499/1...ddbf14d57b.jpg Bottom GoPro Rig, on Flickr http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3707/1...7843ccbf83.jpg Rear Flash GoPro Rig, on Flickr http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2846/1...099de79b99.jpg Rear No Flash GoPro Rig, on Flickr http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7367/1...859bd18d25.jpg Light Side GoPro Rig, on Flickr http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7300/1...c4406f887c.jpg Mic and GoPro Side GoPro Rig, on Flickr http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3672/1...a2a441f2ec.jpg GoPro Wifi Remote Cradle Mounted GoPro Rig, on Flickr in the end, the mounts and hard wear never failed since I would order different versions of products in order to see what was cheap and what was rock solid and reliable. in the end I got a rig that surprises people wherever I take it and I constantly have people asking me to build them on. so far I have sold 2 rigs and still have many other orders pending. |
