RE: camera arm
the muddy arm looks pretty good two but they havent started sellin them yet, there is a pretty cool lone wolf and archers choice if you cant afford the hunter cam cradle
|
RE: camera arm
the hunter cam cradle would be a good option. Also these look good and are real affordable. http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=2837694

RE: camera arm
Here is a solid arm that I have seen at shows and have a few on order with the Manfrotto heads. They are also working on one that would extend longer. I am not a fan of the gorliia or the archers choice which I believe is a Gorilla. They are pretty shaky with anything bigger than a GL2 unless they are ratched down so tight they become one with tree. :}

RE: camera arm
The archers choice is an ameristep and offers more adjustment than most of your arms, That being said it is for cameras in the GL2 and lighter class.

RE: camera arm
Save a little more money and order the HunterCam Cradle HD. I know it is expensive but it is a great product.
|
RE: camera arm
is the camera arm to video yourself, someone else or just to have?
|
RE: camera arm
The Muddy Camera arm is the BEST arm for the MONEY right now. I've dinked around with it quite a bit - and it's very simple, compact, and most importantly - the arm pulls off the base for transport. It's basic design is the same as the very expensive arms, it is just a little more compact.
The other arms in the same catagory are junk IMO - and I have designed/manufactured several of them. www.gomuddy.com |
RE: camera arm
I should mention - Passthru's arm isn't junk. It's very nice - and he'sa WKPteam member - so I can't slam him! he he he.... Sorry Jason!

RE: camera arm
what stinks about the muddy arm is that it doesnt come with a fluid head tho
|
RE: camera arm
None of the good ones do - considering the 501's heads we use cost $180.00 alone - you won't find a "cheap" replacement. Big, heavy fluid heads produce the best footage. The same reason most guys use a stabilizer to tame the "shake" in a bow.
If you intend on getting serious about filming, you better have some money to blow. It never stops and nothing is cheap. It's not a cheap sport man! |
RE: camera arm
The Hunter Cam Cradles come with Bogen fluid heads, the 700 RC2 for the HD which is more than capable for any of the GL size cameras, and with the Pro, you can get the 501 head or the 700RC2. For the XL size cameras you will need a 501 size fluid head. ;)

They are a Bogen/Manfratto dealer and that is all they use on their arms.In talking with Russell the other day he told me that he is working on a larger mount that will hold larger cameras and that it may also be available in either a regular fluid head or a bowl mount. |
