Installing QuadLock on a SONY FDR-AX45 (Handycam)

Shooting video is tough. One hand isn’t enough, and tripods are super bulky.
It just came to me yesterday. This is one of the rare times I’m doing something other than shop work, I guess?
Sorry for jumping ahead.
• Cut, bend, and drill titanium grade 2, T=2mm
QuadLock (QuadLock) Universal Adapter V2
I’m combining these two to make a quick-release mount.
I didn’t have the right bolt, so for now I used the camera’s unique screw.
One side is bolted down, and the other side is lightly secured with double-sided tape. By bending the plate, it’s stronger and also acts as a rotation stop.
Pull down the blue tab and rotate the body to detach it. Installation is the same. The bottom surface protrudes enough that it sits well even when placed down.
You can clamp it to a desk
Or fix it to a handlebar (though I don’t think it would hold up to that.)
Mounted this way, you can shoot work videos. You can even attach it to the ceiling.
Next, I’m planning to machine a magnetic base attachment to increase versatility even more.
A mount I made for motorcycles before. This one mount can fit GoPro, smartphones, and digital camcorders all at once.
Smartphone mounted. Using a Vaio in this day and age…
By the way, this one isn’t QuadLock.
This is also kind of work, I guess?
