Twin Head Tripod
A few years back I was at a Performance Analysis conference and I came across a team using a dual head tripod. Basically a dual head tripod allows you mount two camera’s on the one tripod and have only one camera operator.
What this football club were doing was using one camera to video the match from close-up and the other to give them a wide view of the pitch. I thought it as a great idea; while it is not the perfect solution it can offer you 2 perspectives of the match while only having one cameraman.
I found a good site with plenty of info here – it seems the tripod head will fit on most tripods but best to check this site out for the exact details.
I also found this picture on a forum site where somebody went and made their own version. So if you like the DIY version – it’s well worth checking out.
If anybody has an experience of using something like this or an alternative way of doing leave a comment below.
Hi all…..we have the capability of mounting up to four camcorders or IP cameras on top of the Hi Cam. These can be operated and controlled individually. You can fix any of them or control any of them, the choice is yours. They are great to capture a wide angle as well as following play or if you uese stitching software technology you can pick up the whole pitch with ease. We can go up to a good 17 metres with the Hi Cam. If you njeed any further info then please drop me a line or give me a call on 07702 004842. Thanks Stacey
