Luke wrote:Do you have any pics of the mount and how is it fitted?
here it is, i bought it from a company called Fast Films (
www.fastfilms.co.uk) who were exhibiting at the show, the following description and pictures are taken from their site:
Pump cup with swivel and double ball tilt top head
150mm vacuum pump cup, with swivel and double ball tilt top. A bit of a mouthful, but basically a very strong vacuum mount with multiple joints to allow easy camera positioning in almost any angle, inside and out. The mount is held in place on a smooth, clean angle (ideally flat or very shallow angle) by a vacuum. This is created by you pumping a button on the base quickly until you see the red line on the button disappear. At this point the cup is rated as supporting upto 2kg in weight. When the redline re-appears you need to start pumping again! i started off with it stuck on the inside of the rear window in case it fell off when im driving, haven't tried it on the bodywork while the cars moving
