Trying to figure out what’s the best camera mount. I sent Calabasch a message and hope he responds ...seems like he has the right idea!!

Sorry to sound like I'm in the dark, but you have a channel?



I don’t but my new camera will allow me to live stream and post directly to SM. I used to record a bunch but never liked any of my options because no voice commands but the GP 7 Black is amazing compared to the others. The stabilization is fantastic

Ok so now I'm really feeling old....whats SM?
 
A body/head mount or a detector mount?

I have a few different ones but this hat mount has been working great!

Cheap, fully adjustable, secure, and quick/easy to mount.

I also bought this one and do not recommend it:

Broke it the first time I used it.

I think a head mount is my go to option. Headwear doesn’t change for me but layers do when it’s cold hot etc. I don’t want to have to continually make adjustments

You’re on it Mike,I’ve used a Chesty and it didn’t work,POV was completely wrong. If you want the viewer to see what YOU see,a headmount(I just use the GP headband with integral mount) is the way to go. Also...I just got my Nechkitter GPHero5 Session cage and it’s a VERY nice cage,a whole lot more robust than the plastic cage mine came with,I don’t know which camera you’re looking at exactly.
Back to your original question! For POV realism,headmount.

Head mount it with the skull strap mount over your head and use your phone to get the angle right. This way you can wear your winter toboggan under it for your warmth. I also keep a spare battery in my pocket. The cap clip is good in concept but I had a hard time with balance on the bill while walking it kept wanting to shift but I have no hair to keep the cap from sliding forward from the camera weighting down the bill lol!

You’re welcome!:grin: I have no idea why I’m up right now. Wait,yeah I do. I wanted to go hunting but since it’s SNOWING right now I’m going to see where this winds up first. We have to get at least one more group hunt in so Trapper can get his WOCC prize! Oddly enough,I have no idea what it’s going to be yet...:lol:
