Car Camera Rig!

Turns out my dad has got an old carbon fiber windsurfing mast in the garage i can have!
Gonna go have a look toneet!

HAHAHAHA!

Hahaha Slacky your a good 'un pal , just got a question ... How will you trigger the camera to take a picture ? ( Remote? Self timer ? )

haha! cheers!

Iv got a trusty hahnel pro remote i use for 99.99999% of my shots!

one of the best things i have ever bought for my camera........appart from im on my 3rd one!
which has been repaired and improved twice! lol:



The Arial is only attached to the board by the solder joint, so it kept snapping off after loads of use, so i re soldered and taped that bitch up! lol!

Omg Wish I had your camera and gizmos, they make life so much better !!! Will work awesome !

Also iv been thinking......having £1000 worth of gear on the end of a pole, iv decided not to DIY it, gonna be investing! plus no chance of scratching the car!

Bigcal Borrowed it but think he keeps forgetting to bring it over, to be fair I can see hes been reall busy so I need to try get to his house or get him to pass it to some one I see regularly

Get it back mexican! get back on it!


Right, the car rig is gonna happen this month, iv been thinking: should i charge to take rig photos (not on this forum yet as its mostly mates etc, unless you wanna donate ), but for example the lowdown crew,

say £10 a car? as its prob bout 2 hours for a shoot of 5/6 photos, then bout 4 hours of processing time!

So i think thats dirt cheap, as pros charge £500ish!

Think people would do it?

dont see why not, but if u wanna get lowdown on board, id explain the amount of investmant youve put into it an see what intrest u can generate, if u can get liam or erney on board then your laphing
