AutoPole / Varipole: It's your Light, Mic, Overhead Camera rig anywhere with one INVISIBLE STAND
One simple stand can be your ulitmate overhead camera rig, mic stand, and light stand, all in one. Reclaim your studio space! This works great for small rooms, overhead video setup.
I'm surprised I haven't seen this more, in the KZfaq community. With so many people having semi permanent setups, where one small room acts as a studio with backdrop, unboxing setup, and editing suite. Why would anyone want to have so many stands in the room taking up so much space!

If your walls are made of drywall, I suggest you put a piece of lumber between the autopole & the wall to distribute the force over a large area. Because auto poles can exert hundreds of pounds of force & either indent the drywall or even punch right through it. Don’t ask me how I know this, LOL.

@RafaelLudwig 3 жыл бұрын

This is so true, perhaps I should have been more specific about this in the video 😬 - I do tend to find studs to place it on or at least very close. But I have found that they don't need that much pressure to remain in place. Something to distribute the pressure would definitely help. A cautionary tale for sure! Thanks for the comment!

@TomMannHome 3 жыл бұрын

Yup, I try to find the nearest stud too, but sometimes there just isn’t one where u need it. OTOH, the problem with adding pieces of lumber is that u need about 5 hands to juggle everything, LOL. Cheers!

Same here! I was so used to "the way it should" mindset for on-set video production. Stands, sandbags, and the non permanent set up. Get in, set up, shoot, strike down, and out. Autopoles were only used when we needed stands out of the shot. So thinking about this semi-permanent set up, it was one step from drilling into the ceiling and building a grid ;) I like this solution better.... Thanks for the comment!

@sardendibs Жыл бұрын

Got one of these and mounted it wall-to-wall behind my desk. The idea was to use this setup for overhead photography, but this will only work if you hang whatever you need to hang from it right below it. I put on a Manfrotto magic arm and extended it a little so the camera would point down to my desk, and then popped in a DSLR. The grip of the super clam was tight enough, but the whole AutoPole rotates when weight is added to a short boom arm (like the magic arm) attached to it. The grip of the rubber at the ends just isn't quite strong enough. So I will have to send it back and think of another solution. FYI: This was using an AutoPole2.

How are you getting enough tension to keep the autopiler tight enough against the wall where it won't rotate once you clamp on a light or camera? Mine keeps sliding on the wall and when I clamp my magic arm with light or camera to the autopiler wit the super clamp the pole rotates from the weight! I can't find any answers anywhere!
