How Fast Do You Want To Drive your Camera?

Filmotechnic Suggests You Keep It Under 60 MPH
I’ve seen car camera mounts before, but this one is a whole new breed of cat.
At the day job we have an ancient car camera mount. It’s three big, suction cups with bars that connect them, and a bowl in the middle to hold a tripod head. While it looks pretty beefy, I’ve never felt very comfortable going more than 20 MPH or so with it. Well, the folks at Filmotechnic want to cure that.

The picture may be a bit hard to read, but what you are looking at is a remote-control jib arm mounted on top of a Mini. It’s about 10 feet long, and has a remote pan/tilt mount on the camera end. The details were a bit fuzzy, but with an estimated price is about $100,000, it’s most likely to show up in rental inventories anyway. Super cool, though. Check out www.filmotechnic-usa.com for more details.
