Hey, what is the purpose of this little white round patch of fabric inside of the suction cup? Anybody? I found a discounted mount online but it's missing that piece. Is it for protection only or is this crucial?
@@photojoseph There is a photo of the actual item. It looks like it's just glued there to protect the tiny tube/pipe that sucks the air out.
I have no idea. Never tried to remove it!maybe it has to do with how suction pressure is measured so you see the line appear/disappear as suction changes?
You show 2 products but only give us the info where to buy 1 of them. Come one man would be so much better if you told us both😅
@@photojoseph I understand, thank you
The ball head can be any ball head. The video was about the suction mount.
Micro jitters on in car shots ?
Great video, Joseph; thanks. Your examples were all on the outside of a vehicle. What I would like to know is >>> will this device work on the inside of a car, on the dash? I'm looking to find some way to mount a Fujifilm SLR camera on to the front dash above the CD drive, pointed outward to get video of the approaching landscape.
Only if your dash is made of glass or similar. It’s a glass suction mount. Needs a very smooth surface. Any porousness will break the seal. But you might be able to mount it to the inside of the windshield.
That can work to put on a boat ??
I need to do a shotting and costumer he want to put 360 camara on this.
Thanks for you help

As long as there’s a smooth, flat (or nearly flat) surface, yes. Obviously you’ll want to test it first. There are also models with three suction points for better security.
Good what size of dslr with lense can I conformably mount here
You need to look up the weight rating on it and compare to the gear you want to mount; that’s the only way to know for sure.
would this work on a mirror
I love the Manfrotto tripods I have one for my camera and it was the best investment but this is a game changer for the car! That suction is brilliant! Expect nothing less from Manfrotto! Great review! Would had been great to see in the vehicle though. ~Karen🌹
Hi Joseph, great vlog as always. I had a query in mind, I want to mount this on car door, windscreen, car hood facing either sides (to the road infront or at the driver) and shoot with a Panasonic GH5 With a Metabones & Sigma 18-35mm or Tokina 11-16. Would you advice it? In low traffic, night shots.
+Tarun Wadhwa Thanks! I put a GH4 on the hood of a $100,000 Mercedes and drove through the streets of NYC. Just be sure that red line is never visible and clean the car hood really well first. And obviously pull and pull to test. Worked for me! (Oh, and be insured. Just in case.)
Thank you for this Vlog.. Very Helpful.. :))
