That's a really good insight Andy and thanks for sharing it with us. One thing you mentioned you were on a hill. Did you have the engine running at anytime or was the engine off and gravity doing its work?
Also to those who are viewing from pistonheads there are two ways to do the rig. 2" carbon like Andy has used and you can get long exposures just with the rig. Or use a thinner tube and tension wires to counter the bounce. The same goes with metal rigs.
Great thread, some cool set ups and really cool photos!
Here is one from me, its just been published in Golf+
Cheers

Hi everyone. I work for a glass lifting company and we stock vacuum suction mounts manufactured by "Woods Powrgrip". I am trying to find a new market for these products. Have any of you used these suction mounts when creating your rigs?
Hello Alex, I am in the process of assembling my rig and (as I mentioned to you last week) I am using your Woods cups. I'll be happy to post pics and details when I'm ready to test it.
I think the Manfrotto suction cup is the preferred device as it has standardised fittings for most photographic accessories.
On a side note, we have strict policies on advertising products, once you have identified a product of suitable use for our members, you're more than welcome to approach us to discuss an advertising package as in thread selling or soliciting sales is not permitted.

Hi JT7
Thanks. Have you used the Manfrotto suction cup before? If so how do they compare?
