Iphone 4 tripod for video

[madams]

Does anyone use a tripod to make their videos? Is there one designed that can be used with the iphone 4?

Just search YouTube there are several ideas. Most are easy mods for cases.

Thanks for the link, I've been thinking of getting a mount for the iPhone 4 so I don't get tired of holding it.

I've come across a few DIY iPhone 4 Tripods on YouTube, as someone mentioned. Some more clunky than others.

I found this one on eBay for $7 shipped, which works perfect with my iPhone 4. It is marketed for the "Droid Incredible" but fits really any smart phone ... and it fits my iPhone 4 like a glove.

Here's the eBay link: http://bit.ly/9fNtex

And a quick photo of my iPhone installed into the iPhone 4 Mount:

So far it has worked out great. It came with the tiny desktop Tripod, but I unscrewed the mount from that and stuck it on my fluid-head tripod and it takes amazing video ... especially from a camera.

on a rate from 1-10 how is the steadyness of the shot because as you know the iphone 4 camera is very jittery.

The tripod is solid ... no worries about jittery video.

I love the cheapy eBay tripod - for $7, you can't go wrong.

Would you mind sharing how long shipping took, as I noticed this tripod ships out of china, and I've had some long wait times, up to 2 weeks, when ordering some of these items.

I also noticed that Blank Media, Ink & Toner, Flash Memory, Gadgets & More - Meritline® carries the same product, with a 2 week shipping window, for a few bucks cheaper.

thanks,

Win

Shipping for the $7 eBay tripod took about a week.
