Herman PoppleberryHOST
There was a hacker news thread in 2022 where someone described their RAM-based setup as sturdy, pro-level mounts, not the cheap disposable junk from no-name brands on Amazon.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
They were using RAM ball adapters with a Rockform case and Manfrotto arms.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
So the enthusiast answer is RAM.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
Buy once, cry once.
CornHOST
and the two heavy duty solution categories.
CornHOST
But what about the mounts that articulate? The ones you can
Herman PoppleberryHOST
pull toward you and push back? Daniel's concept maps onto ram socket arms, single and double, with adjustable tension and Manfrotto style magic arms.
Herman PoppleberryHOST
Those let you reposition the device and swing it back toward the dash.
Richard StaveleyGUEST
A, a range of brands.
Richard StaveleyGUEST
They own things like a Connor, which are used on the top com- movies, through to Manfrotto, which is a very, very well-known, sort of the leading, uh, tripod brand, and a range of other media equipment.
Richard StaveleyGUEST
Uh, they actually own the eponymous Autocue, believe it or not.
Richard StaveleyGUEST
Although it's a small part of their brand portfolio, but they actually own Autocue itself.
Allison SheridanHOST
millions of years.
Allison SheridanHOST
All right, so one of the pieces that makes all of this work is that you packed two tripods in your luggage to be able to hold the camcorders.
Allison SheridanHOST
And you're smart enough and traveled enough that you knew not to put any of these expensive cameras in your checked luggage, but the tripods had to fit in checked luggage.
Allison SheridanHOST
And then what happened, Steve? And
Steve SheridanGUEST
then Iberia Airlines, I won't say lost.
Allison SheridanHOST
I mean, you can wash your underwear in the sink or something.
Allison SheridanHOST
You can get by with that.
Allison SheridanHOST
But how do you do this video without those tripods? Yeah.
Steve SheridanGUEST
Before this.
Alison SheridanHOST
So one of the pieces that makes all of this work is that you packed, uh, two tripods in your luggage to be able to hold-
Steve SheridanGUEST
Oh
Alison SheridanHOST
...
Alison SheridanHOST
the camcorders and, um, you're smart enough and traveled enough that you knew not to put any of these expensive cameras in your checked luggage, but the tripods had to fit in checked luggage.
Steve SheridanGUEST
Yeah.
Alison SheridanHOST
And then what happened, Steve?
Alison SheridanHOST
I mean, you can wash your underwear in the sink or something.
JohnHOST
It's only a tiny wee tripod.
Andrew BartramHOST
Yeah, I don't mean the little Manfrotto things with the legs.
Andrew BartramHOST
I mean, have you got one
JohnHOST
there? No, it's
Andrew BartramHOST
I was chatting to somebody on the train station yesterday who had just bought one.
Andrew BartramHOST
He just happened to admire my Pentax 17 as I stood on the platform.
JohnHOST
I do have a Manfrotto carbon fibre tripod.
JohnHOST
That's lying behind me.
David McClellandHOST
And with that in mind, there is a veritable shopping arcade of brands and exhibitors who are already confirmed to be at the 2027 show with their latest wares and helpful experts on hand.
David McClellandHOST
New and familiar brands including Canon, OM System, Nanlite, Ricoh, Manfrotto, Rode, Sigma, Tamron, Harnemuller, Profoto, Intrepid Camera, Sahl Digital, Peak Design and many, many more.
David McClellandHOST
All confirmed with new exhibitors being added every week.
David McClellandHOST
Another great thing about the show is that once you've tried your dream kit for size, you have the opportunity to buy it too from the dedicated retailers on the show floor, often with some incredible, never-to-be-repeated show deals.
Paul HendersonGUEST
...
Paul HendersonGUEST
Manfrotto sticks and-
Paul J SchmidtHOST
Yep.
Paul J SchmidtHOST
Oh my gosh
Nino LeitnerHOST
I mean, they were amazing to work with, but, and I was always surprised why, you know, like nobody has them over here.
Nino LeitnerHOST
Everybody was using Sachtler, Manfrotto and so on.
Nino LeitnerHOST
And I guess, you know, like in a, in a, in a little way, I mean, they're an Australian company.
Nino LeitnerHOST
They've not had great distribution, at least in Europe.
Jordan DrakeHOST
They're not fluid.
Jordan DrakeHOST
So you don't have to worry like a Manfrotto about them, like gunking up and getting sticky.
Jordan DrakeHOST
They feel great.
Jordan DrakeHOST
And we've used those Millers in like, Crazy cold weather, felt great.
CornHOST
You start with a 40cm articulating arm.
CornHOST
Neewer makes one for about $38, Manfrotto if you want to spin more.
CornHOST
It clamps to any desk edge up to about 6 centimeters thick, and the arm has two or three joints so you can position it overhead, at an angle, straight on, whatever the shot needs.
CornHOST
So instead of putting the product inside a box, you're bringing the light to the product.
