This is a personal “look see” at a product for video vlogs for crafters, artists, cooks, bakers, etc.

It holds cell phones and even the GoPro.

This table stand does seem to be a “wish come true” for many — like myself who want to show what they’re working on from an overhead shot.

This is excellent for video as well as sill shots. The flexible arm gets your phone in the right position to show what you’re doing.

There have been some complaints that the stand base shows in their shots.

This is not an issue for me.

I wanted something sturdy and if a bit of the stand shows, I’m not concerned . . . but I have been able to arrange things so it doesn’t show.

I suppose that is a personal thing you’ll need to consider before making a purchase.

This stable overhead view phone mount extends upward from 17″ to 29″ on the weighted base.

It fits smartphones up to 2 lbs and up to 4″ wide.

Arkon’s HD8RV29 Pro Stand now includes 3 flexible shafts to provide additional extension away from the base.

It is intended for smartphones with the “claw” to hold it. However, it does come with a 1/4″-20 camera adapter screw.

I know one crafter who is able to get her small camera in the “claw” without a problem.

I’ve found this Akron Kitchen Desk Table Stand to work for me with my GoPro . . . so I’m happy with it.
