I essentially want the camera to look straight down on the calculator while it rests on the desk and I push the keys and talk. This device looks like it might do the job, but I was wondering if others have experience doing this kind of thing. My camera is a small digital SLR with the standard screw tripod mount, and it can do movies. Thanks Dieter. Actually, I do own a very good tripod, the Veblon VS-3, with all kinds of adjustment possibilities, but in the couple of videos I have made using it I just couldn't get the camera quite where I wanted it. My camera is a small digital, Fujifilm Finepix S8200 series. It is rather compact and I thought it would work well with this stand. Some reviewers say you need a shutter release when using the stand, but I imagine that advice is for still pix, not videos, which is what I am doing. Yeah, I know to lock-in the focus so it doesn't keep auto-adjusting during the video. Thanks again for the good tips. |
