i made the gnarest camera handle ever

[mat]

-button where your thumb goes controls the record button. made from one of those old shutter trigger things.
-old foamy coated in gripdip stuff
-made of 2 steel strips, so its ridged and strong but still has a small amount of springiness to help dampen vibrations. its also got a layer of this under the camera for the same purpose.
-shoe mount under the camera for lights and mics (not visible)
and some other shit. idk, i was bored. i'll make a better one soon.

what camera?

panasonic pv-gs85. real shitty image quality, but it was cheep.

 

[Dylan Kasson]

i always wanted to do something like this becase my old gs 150 came with a off camera mic with the record button so i just taped it on my handle and it was sweet but my 320 doesnt have any jack for it

Im gonna try do this with my gs150, bought all the metal but need to get a tripod bolt cos mine dont fit.

1/4" bolt. get a knob thing like this http://www.aero-inc.com/718005.jpg

 

[Andy Rhode]

why? 150s come with mics that control almost all the settings on the camera so all you would need is a handle and then tape the mic on top

 

[Josh Young]

omg thats soooooooooooooooooo sickkkkk

O right dylan, ive never took the mic out the box since i got it so i wouldnt no.

 

[qwxor]

Hey dylan do you know if the gs500 comes with the mic?

 

[Dylan Kasson]

nope i just know that the 320 doesnt
why would you want a 500 though? the only difference is the still picture quality which seems like a waste of money because its a video camera

 

[qwxor]

pivotal viewfinder i heard was soooooooo nice

but i dont know seeing as gs320s going for i think around 500 now on bh right?

well this kid i know is selling the gs500 for 500 soooo i figure its a good deal

i dont know though
