If you own a small action camera you already know that there are a number of mounts and accessories for it. Just today a new batch arrived:
1. The look-at-this accessory - a battery-powered turntable with action camera mounting . Set your camera to do the time lapse thing and let it spin - it does 360º in 60 minutes. Doing spectaculars couldn't be simpler and you don't need to be there to fuss over it.
2. The look-at-me accessory. Here are two plastic arms that extend the range of the standard helmet mount. Your camera is far enough away from your face to be able to focus on it and the surroundings at the same time. You can hold on to dear life to what ever you can - handlebar grips, surfboards, airplane wings, shark tails, etc and your audience gets to focus on you. Make sure you look adventurous and dynamic...
3. The grip-of-death accessory. Known as the Grenade Grip. Seriously, that's what the packet says. Hold on for dear life. Good to have but do not discuss it by name in the airport or you'll be sitting in a federal cell for a couple of days...
4. The evidence accessory - this grip floats, even if you do not. It is brightly coloured so the Water Police can find it.
These are in addition to the pole grips we featured last week. I am hoping that they bring out a little radio-controlled robot crawler tractor with an action camera mounting so I can stalk the staff through the store.
