After a visit to our local dump, I lurched over to a nearby Poundland and found a "Phone Tripod Stand" which of course cost just £1, and does the job very well! |

13 Aug 18 - 11:18 AM (#3943654) Subject: RE: Tech: Phone tripod stand From: Stilly River Sage I ordered what amounts to a big clamp to use with my phone that attaches to any regular tripod (I use the same tripods for cameras or the telescope). Ulanzi ll065 Metal Phone Tripod Mount with Hot Shoe Mount Iron Man 2 Pro Smartphone Holder Video Rig Tripod Mount Adapter. This item has changed since I bought it, with my purchase several months ago it didn't come with a hot shoe mount and I don't use one for the phone (I use stationary LED light stands). |

If it lasts for the duration of the wedding we are going to in 2 weeks, I'll be happy. |
