#KPHDS $99.50 OUT OF STOCK

Includes; Kangaroo Pouch, 3232M Swivel Head, and 676B Monopod.

676BMonopod.gif SwivelHead.gif BeltPouchONLY.jpg

Monfratto 3232M *Modified Swivel Tilt Head

Screws on top of the monopod with 1/4"-20 stud. A steel spring washer and a roller bearing has been added for smoother tilts. Any monopod used with the Kangaroo Pouch must have some sort of tilt head to function properly or if you want to set your rig down on the floor. *A steel spring washer and a roller bearing has been added for smoother tilts. Original Fiber Washer included if you need to lock down the Swivel Head.



Manfrotto 676B Black Monopod

This is a superbly crafted black monopod weighing less than a pound. Min. height 19", max. height 60.5". Rated for weight up to 10lbs (but I'm sure it could suppot more) and weighs less than a pound. The #3232M Swivel Tilt Head screws right on top of this monopod. Quick snap leg locks make raising and lowering the height a breeze. The second lower leg is thin enough for the Sony RM-VD1 remote to clamp on to. Now you can raise your camcorder over your head and still be able to zoom and record at will.


Kangaroo-Pouch Light Duty Support System  (OUT OF STOCK)

#KPLDS $64.50 Plus Shipping & Handling

Includes; Kangaroo Pouch and Slik Slim-pod.


BeltPouchONLY.jpg mp-slimpod.jpg

Kangaroo Pouch and SLIK Slim-Pod mono-pod support system.

The SLIK Slim-Pod has a built in swivel head with quick release extension locks and weighs just 10oz. It's not as strong as the Bogen676B but it works. Fully extended it's kind of shakey, but you will only need to extend it slightly when inserted in the Kangaroo Pouch. The tilt head is not nearly as smooth, strong, or durable as the Bogen (3232m), but if your on a budget, it's a deal. This is a super lightweight inexpensive support system and a super deal. Check SLIK's web site for specs on this monopod.

BeltPouchONLY.jpg

This is a low tech, inexpensive, weight relief system that utilizes a 2" wide polybelt and pouch with a quick release buckle to support a camcorder on a monopod, at your hips. Fully adjustable, fits waists up to 50" . This Kangaroo Pouch is so comfortable, you'll forget you have it on. Almost the entire weight of your rig goes to your hips. Really relieves back strain that neck and shoulder supports will cause. Combine the Kangaroo-Pouch System with the Scorpion Bracket, and you'll have the most versatile systems on the market.



Soft Foam Eye CupSoft Foam Eye Cup


eyemuff2000.jpg #FEC-1 (Fits viewfinder necks between 1" and 1-1/2" )

                                                      $9.50 Plus Shipping and Handling


  ScorpionSupport/FoamEyeCupZ-7u.jpg#FEC-2 (Fits viewfinder necks between 1-1/2" and 2")
(Shown on a Sony Z-7u)

                                                                                    $9.50 Plus Shipping and Handling

The Soft Foam Eye Cup is designed to make viewing through the camera's eye piece more comfortable with better light sealing. If you use your eye piece often, you've probably suffered from some bruising or soreness from repeated contact with the rubber eye cup, I know I have. I also love how the soft foam fits your eye socket, sealing out all the extraneous light. This is extremely helpful in bright sun light situations when your LCD monitor becomes useless. (Using your eye piece instead of the LCD monitor prolongs the camcorder battery life, gives a more accurate exposure feedback, and allows you to hold your camcorder in a tighter brace to your body.) Not recommended for eyeglasses.

This Sony remote can control ; Zoom, Record Start/Stop, Power Up From Standby, and Still Photo functions of LANC controlled video cameras. (Also works with Sony digital still cameras with an ACC terminal.) This little remote measures just 1" X 1-1/2" and has a spring loaded grip that clamps to several spots on the Scorpion Bracket, or the handle of your video head. It has a power on LED that changes to Red to let you know when you are recording with just a glance. The clamp mount allows you to quickly reposition it from your tripod handle to your Scorpion Bracket or anything else up to 3/4" thick. It has a five foot cord length and comes with a soft drawstring carrying pouch. A two speed rocker switch controls your zoom. A slide switch on the side, powers camera up and down. "It's a lot of Bang for the Buck!"

Manfrotto Compact Levelling Head #3502


3502LevelHead.gif # BG3502 $84.50 Plus Shipping and Handling

If you've never used a tripod with a bowl head, you don't know what your missing. A bowl head lets you quickly level your video head with a simple locking lever, for full 360 degree pans. No fussing with adjusting your tripod legs to level out your head. Sometimes just a slight relocation of your tripod causes it to go unlevel. Well this Compact Levelling Head #3502 turns an ordinary tripod into a bowl head style tripod. A single lever, locks and unlocks this head to allow 10 degrees of movement in any direction. Mounts between your tripod and video head. Works on any tripod and head that uses a 3/8" mounting hole and screw for attaching.

Velcro.jpg #BV2 $3.50/ 2 Plus Shipping and Handling

Have you ever wanted to easily secure that lens cap dangling from its cord or keep a cleaning tape or MiniDV tape close by. I Velcro my lenscap to the front of my bracket and a cleaning tape at the rear, on the tail of the bracket. Having a cleaning tape right on the camera has saved my butt a few times.
