helmet with camera built inSo my first question is if you know of any helmet mount for the pocket camera. Second question is if you know any idea to make this possible in DIY style
Using a pocket camera for a first-person perspective in your production can be a great idea. While I don't have access to real-time information on specific helmet mounts for pocket cameras, I can offer some suggestions and DIY ideas that might help.
Research existing mounts: Start by searching online or contacting the manufacturer of your pocket camera to see if there are any official helmet mounts or compatible accessories available. Check for third-party options as well, as there might be universal mounts that can be adapted for your camera.
Utilize action camera mounts: Since pocket cameras and action cameras are similar in size and shape, you can explore using action camera mounts that are designed for helmets. Look for mounts that have a universal design or adjustable features to accommodate different camera sizes.
DIY options: If you're open to a do-it-yourself approach, here are a few ideas:
3D printing: If you have access to a 3D printer or know someone who does, you can design and print a custom mount specifically for your pocket camera. There are online platforms where you can find pre-designed mounts that may be compatible with your camera model.
Adhesive mounts: Consider using adhesive mounts commonly used for action cameras. You can attach these mounts to your helmet or create a separate mount using a sturdy adhesive and a platform that fits your camera.
Gooseneck or flexible mounts: Explore using flexible mounts, like gooseneck mounts or articulating arms, which can be easily adjusted and positioned for a first-person perspective. These mounts often have a universal mount on one end, allowing you to attach your pocket camera.
Remember to prioritize safety when attaching any DIY mounts to your helmet. Ensure that the mount is securely fastened and won't interfere with the integrity of the helmet or obstruct your vision.
Before proceeding with any DIY options, it's recommended to thoroughly research and test the mount to ensure it can securely hold your pocket camera during filming.
I hope these suggestions help you find a suitable helmet mount for your pocket camera and enable you to capture the desired first-person perspective for your production.
