Most shooters I know have some kind of Noga or similar rosette arm in their kit bag. Useful for rigging monitors, lights and other small accessories they can hold moderate weights quite easily.
But imagine an arm that is so strong that it can hold a Sony F55 in place. That is exactly what 27 Notch, a camera rental/production company based in Los Angeles, have set out to do. Their new Infinity arm is not only claimed to be super strong, it also has the unique feature of being able to switch out accessories mounted on its ball ends.
One proposed use of the arm is as a super sturdy GoPro mounts. To show just how strong it is the company made the video below:
27 Notch plan to launch the product on Kickstarter in the upcoming days. Their website is here.
This from 27 Notch:
“We have just developed a new cinema arm set to be released into the market early next year called the Infinity Arm, and we would love to have other camera enthusiasts and filmmakers learn about it.”
“We believe that our cinema arm is the strongest, most versatile product right now. It is the only quick-connecting, quick-adjusting rosette arm that aims to give you security when you need it while also allowing you to easily switch accessories with the click of a button. You can check out our website at infinityarm.com.”
“We want to produce the best kind of product possible, and a project like this requires time, effort, and unfortunately, money. We are planning to launch a Kickstarter campaign on October 10th, and will let everyone who signs up on our LaunchRock page know about it.”
