Stands for Mini cameras

The AAW has mini cameras scheduled to be used at the Orlando symposium, and we are currently seeking designs for mini camera setups. We intend to have

3 cameras monitoring each lathe . Do any of you have suggestions, advice or plans for "mini camera stands", (multi or single camera setups) that you have successfully used in your own clubs or demo's. We would like to be able to easily break the stands/booms down for packing and transport. Thank you, Phil Brennion

See my post on the AAW forum to "Dave" about this. I *might* be able to do a demo this coming weekend at a local shop and have the whole camera system setup there in order to take some pictures of it for you. It's a good, lightweight but yet strong system that breaks down easily. Very flexible in it's uses too. It's not nearly as cheap as just a broomstick but it's well worth it.

Using camera tripods works well for this setup...

Phil,

If you sink a 1/2" EMT conduit in a 1 gal paint bucket full of cement, then attach a second piece as a boom using a clamping block to force the boom to a specific angle, that might work. Attach the camera with tie straps, velco or other simple mounting system.

I am assuming you are talking about those little cameras - not a regular camcorder.
