Since your budget is $40, you should be able to both buy a tall and light weight tripod, and add a tripod mount to your webcam and still have money to spare. Sadly, the video is 5 years old and a lot of the links he shares in the info box are broken. If you want a nicer more expensive option, check out this video by The Frugal Film Maker (OG Youtuber) about how to add a tripod mount to something that doesn't already have it - Start at 54 seconds. This will probably cost you less than $0.50 from a hardware store. The cheapest way would be to super glue a 1/4' 20 nut to the bottom of the webcam. If the webcam does not have a tripod mount on the bottom of it, you could always add a tripod mount to it. It gets to 7' tall so you should be good to go. If it did, I would recommend just getting a light stand for $20 like this one here. Just to double check, please confirm if the webcam you are using has a screw mount on the bottom of it. The base should be printed with 3 walls, support and bridge enabled. No more than $40, please.ĭoes anyone have a suggestion for a tripod that can fit all three of those criteria?īased on the amazon link you shared, it looks like your webcam does not have a tripod mount on the bottom of it. Just used 2 things to build a portable Logitech C270 webcam tripod and added a base. However, if nobody can provide me with a satisfactory solution to that problem, then I need a tripod that (A) can hold a Logitech C270 webcam in a sturdy position, and (B) can hold the camera 36-40 inches off the desk. Tripod with Standard 1/4 screw is perfect for webcam. I have an alternative thread that might make android phone recording plausible for me: Most tripods I found on Amazon are designed to either hold stand-alone cameras or smartphones. My desk is currently 28 inches off the ground, so I need a tripod that can go at least 38 inches high.īut I also need a tripod that can hold the aforementioned webcam. It includes two stands, one that can mount it to a tripod and another, more flexible one that rests on your monitor. I need to have the webcam be positioned at eye level, which for me is 66 inches off the ground. Works with: Windows 10, macOS, Android, Chrome OS. I can tilt the webcam up so it can see my face when I'm standing, but the angle just looks terrible. Right now, the webcam is placed on top of my computer monitor, but that only provides a decent angle if I'm sitting.
