Habbycam’s new SD Camera Brace is one of many shoulder mounts that make shooting video with a DSLR easier and steadier. The difference is that, at $250, this one has a price much more suited to the budget market that is likely to be shooting video with an SLR.
The brace will work with any camera that has a tripod socket, so you’re not limited to stills cameras. It can be broken down into its component parts for storage and transport, and the 3-pound aluminum and stainless steel rig can support gear up to 20-pounds in weight.
Sure, it’s good looking and functional, and probably even comfortable with that foam shoulder-pad, but there’s one added feature that makes the SD brace stand out. See those holes drilled in the shoulder bracket? They’re threaded as standard quarter-inch tripod mounts, which means you can attach all manner of accessories like sound-recorders or batteries.
The Habbycam might not have the flat-out awesomeness of Jonathan Bergqvist’s amazing dad-crafted wooden mount, but then, you don’t have to ask your father to make one. Available now.
