Phone Gear

Phone mounts and filming rigs in Egypt

Modern phones out-shoot older dedicated cameras, and what limits them is how they are held. A rig converts a phone from something you grip awkwardly into a camera with handles, mounting points and accessory shoes.

The range covers universal phone holders, neck mounts for hands-free point-of-view filming, filter mounts, fill lights and travel holders.

Building a phone setup

• Clip with 1/4 thread — the base part; connects the phone to any tripod or arm.
• Neck mount — hands-free chest-height footage for cooking, repair work and walking shots.
• Fill light — the single biggest quality gain for indoor talking-head video.
• Filter mount — lets you use ND and CPL filters on a phone lens.

Check your phone fits the clamp width with its case on. Priced in EGP.
