He's rockin' the "Nuttin Special"!
I've been trying to get a decent video from inside the cab at night on a road thru some of the country around here. I'm not getting much trying to hold the camera and drive too. Anybody come up with a decent rig to hold the camera while trying to drive? I've been thinking about rigging some kind of perch to place the camera above the seat top and able to view out my small windshield. I have an area I could clamp to on a horizontal brace that is close to the top edge of the seat back but if I clamp it solid, I'm not sure if vibration would be bad there yet. I've been trying to hold it in hand but I'm all over the place the results will make you wanna hurl if you have a weak stomach. Everytime I tried tonight, I was either over the mic or bumping around all over. I also thought of one of those industrial suction cups and some kind of bracket off that to the mount on the bottom of the camera. Not sure if a suction cup would hold thru rough stuff. Anybody tired anything that worked fairly well? I've got a Nikon camera that shoots real good pix. I also have one of the 4Sight dash cams with all the rigging. None of that will attach to my regular cam and I'm not real impressed with the quality from the dash cam itself. Shoot me some ideas...if you have them.
