CamHandle2 Tripod Mount Handles! - Skateboard Forums - Message Board

**Preston951** · 04-30-2009, 09:53 PM

I'm sure about 40% of you don't know me, 40% might remember me, and the rest of you know me. I sold the "CamHandle", a filming handle that slid into the hot shoe mount on the Panasonic GS320. Well, not many people had that camera or hot shoe option. People questioned its strength, but it was very strong. Lots of people wanted a handle, and asked for one that mounted to the tripod holes on the bottom. Well... You asked for it!!!

This baby will run you $25 (that includes shipping) for a flat black handle. 7 mounting holes are drilled into the bottom to be compatible with most cameras & allow lots of extra space + stability. A screw goes into the tripod mount on the bottom of your camera. There is foam on the bottom part for security, safety, and to keep your handle and camera as perfect as possible. It also eliminates "twisting". There is a 4 inch clearance between where the camera mounts to the actual part you hold. The part you hold is large enough for my big hands (+more!) and is covered in foam all around. It's made out of high-grade lightweight aluminum that won't bend easily but can be bent to fit one's specific needs. It's very comfortable, safe for you camera, compact, and looks great! It's unbelievably stable. (Shipped after you pay)

I also can make you a CUSTOM handle. If you want a color besides flat black (which is not shiny), its an extra $5. The foam will remain black, and look absolutely awesome! If you order a custom handle, the total will be $30 shipped. (Made after you pay)
The colors available at the moment:
Grabber Green, Forest Green, Dark Blue, Blue, Purple, Gloss Black, Metallic Silver, Chrome Silver, Chrome Brass, Gilded Brass, Antique Metallic Brass, Antique Metallic Gold, Metallic Copper. (Use and image search engine to see what unique colors look like)

I can make you a custom-bent handle to fit your specific camera. Let me know the dimensions and I'll tell you if the "base" will fit your camera (heighth of camera, where the tripod mounts are from the bottom, etc). This includes custom paint - if you want it. The total for this is $35. (Made after you pay)

How do you buy one? I use PayPal, and that's all I accept. It's extremely easy to make one and you can credit it with a credit card, VISA gift card, or bank account. I never see your numbers, I just get the money. It works just like Ebay, just eliminates the middleman.

Many people ask if they can buy through Ebay. Yeah, you can. But it'll cost you $35, be the stock base size and flat black color. Ebay charges a listing and selling fee, that's why it costs more.

Once you buy, I'll post a pic of your shipping receipt. If you order a custom colored handle, I'll post a pic of it up before I ship!

If anyone fears I'm not legit (meaning your parents

) and wants to use Ebay, for the record I've sold 3 handles before straight through PayPal. Higher_Class, homi3skate, and some other guy all ordered one and received it within weeks (CamHandle v.1).

To order:
Post your request in this thread. For generally quicker service, send me an email at preztonmillz@yahoo.com To send a payment, my PayPal address is: preztonmillz@yahoo.com

Thanks a lot guys!

I like it but It would be better with some kind of strap on the handle so you don't drop your camera. breaking your camera isn't fun.

really cool though.

Haha yeah dude! Handcrafted. So not 100% perfect, but very nice IMO for what they are. Heck, these cost less than half of the CamCaddie and other tripod-mount handles!

Looking forward to your business
