The key to getting a camera in the right position—and keeping it there— is a camera mount. The term"camera mount " refers to anything that holds a camera. Your arm is, in fact, a camera mount.

The tripod is the most common form of mounting equipment. Even places like Walmart sell them for as little as $20.

Amazingly, professional tripods can cost thousands. A documentary filmmaker might not blink at spending $8,000 for his “sticks” (another term for tripod).
