This tool is called “Magic Arm”.
A #magicarm is a versatile and adjustable mounting tool commonly used on film sets. It typically consists of a series of articulated joints that can be locked into place using a single knob or lever. The Magic Arm can hold various pieces of equipment, such as lights, cameras, monitors, or other accessories, in a precise position. In here for #vr180 filmmaking we need to shoot the camera out so the tripod and windows are not in frame.
Here are some key features and uses of a Magic Arm:
➡️1. Adjustability: The articulated joints allow for a wide range of motion and positioning, making it easy to adjust the equipment to the desired angle or height.
➡️2. Locking Mechanism: A single central locking mechanism can secure all the joints simultaneously, ensuring the equipment remains steady and in place.
➡️3. Mounting Options: Magic Arms often come with multiple attachment points, such as 1/4”-20 or 3/8”-16 threads, clamps, or cold shoes, allowing them to be attached to tripods, light stands, or directly to set structures.
➡️4. Versatility: They are used to mount small lights for precise lighting, position monitors for easy viewing, hold reflectors, or even support small cameras in tight or awkward spaces.

Nice video 😉 By the way, the R7 can't record 8K videos, but can I expect good quality for 3D still images and time-lapse videos?
