The Horizontal Camera Mount consists of a 33 inches long x 5/8 inch diameter solid aluminum bar with a universal camera screw mount on one end, and the tripod clamp. The tripod clamp has a thumb screw to allow the camera/bar to be horizontally positioned. The entire product is hard black anodized for years of trouble free service. Maximum recommended camera weight is 2 pounds without counter balance, and 8 pounds with a counter balance; see images for using a water bottle as a counter balance. The HCM is ideal for shooting small objects that cannot easily stand up on their own for a frontal shot.
A wired or wireless camera shutter release is recommended for use with the Horizontal Camera Mount.
NOTE: A tripod is NOT included with this product; this is a tripod accessory. Several images show examples of the Horizontal Camera Mount used in product photography kits. The additional components shown in these examples are not included with the Horizontal Camera Mount.
