Looking for reliable car mount for BMCC 2.5/4k

PostSun Aug 16, 2015 7:43 pm

Hey all,

I'm interested in a stable and steady carmount for my BMCC 2.5k. Looking to mount the cam up on the hood of a picture car with some kind of sunction cup mount. Any ideas on brands that others have used? I'm worried about dents and marks on the car as it will be a rental.

If any one has ideas or links to products that they know for sure can support and fly the bmcc let me know!

Thanks.

Have you looked into a RigMount XL Brushless Gimbal Mount: http://www.rigwheels.com/product/rigmou ... bal-mount/

Just caught wind of this and am probably going to save up for one in the near future.

Dwayne, I've found this triple suction mount works well for the price. (Used with BMCC)
amazon.co.uk/dp/B00A86MMY8

Once mounted you'll see for yourself how secure it is. Of course the steadiness of the footage with a rigid mount depends on your car speed and road surface.
