Set up an overhead camera rig last week, now the recording process is much more standardized and smoother than before. The action camera was mounted by just hanging the Joby tripod from the PVC which act as the biggest pain now. The grip is not fixed and always needed to be adjusted for each setup.
To solve this problem, something more stable has to replace the flexible tripod for this setup. Bought a rotatable action camera mount for bicycle and a connector using 1/4 adapter.
The best thing is this bicycle mounter rotating in fixed angle so I can certainly be surethat the camera angle is always directly proportional to the rig and the artwork underneath. Money well spent!
把之前的设置升级，把原本的八爪鱼三角架换成了更稳定的固定式支架，主要是因为之前使用三脚架挂在 PVC 上虽然可行，但总不稳定的左右摇摆，每次设定还需要折腾一遍重新挂上去。
这种固定支架适用于单车上的运动相机安装，但是用在这里很明显的也是非常合适。以后就不用头痛的老是要设定千变万化的三角架啦。
