Tool to Hold iPhone Still





If you're looking for a tool to hold your smartphone steady while you're at your desk, kind of at eye level, and still, I've got a great tool for you today. It's called the Lamicall Gooseneck Cellphone Holder, and I'm gonna show you a little bit about it today. So I've had this tool for about four months now, and I've been really happy with it, 'cause it's so simple. It has down on the bottom, a clamp that just tightens and screws down to your desk, so if you've got a desk that's less than 2.75 inches thick, you should be able to mount this to your desk. It has this nice little clamp that you can fit your phone into. You can see it gets pretty wide, it'll hold an iPhone Max. You'll just let that go, and then once again, just do some slight adjustments and get it level. So it's got a couple of different adjustments so that you can set it to the right height, and the right position. And actually I've got another video, if you check up here, it's a video about all the different ways that I've found to use this if you wanna be standing while you're recording. Here I've got it attached to my desk, and then there's the thick section, which allows you to make kind of the major adjustments, and then a smaller thinner section, which lets you make the finer adjustments, the finer tuning. And then of course it's got this ability to turn, so that once you've got it set, you can set it at the perfect level. Of course once you get it set, it's gonna bounce around for just a few seconds, so make sure that you pause before you start the actual recording, and give yourself a little space there to edit. So I got this over on Amazon, and I'll have a link to that down below, so that if you're interested in picking this up on Amazon, it's a great deal at like $16 or $17. And as I mentioned earlier, I've got a number of other ways that I've used this, and you can click up here to watch the video that shows you multiple other ways that you can use this device.

Smartphone Holder for Video Recording





If you're using your smartphone for video calls or making videos, one of the key things is to hold it still, to hold it steady, and at about eye level. And I've got a great tool for doing that. It's called like a gooseneck stabilizer. I'll have a link down below to Amazon where you can buy it for about 15 bucks. But I've got another video where you can check out my review of this. But I wanted to show you all the different ways that I've found to use it since I started to get creative with this. So right now it's attached to my desk and it's a little bit lower than eye height, so not perfect, but I'm gonna go around my house and show you a couple other ways that you could attach this to something to get it at the perfect height and in the perfect location. So to get the camera closer to my eye line, I just walked over to my kitchen where I've attached the gooseneck holder to my kitchen countertop, which is a little higher than my desk. So if I wanted it really high up, I can attach it to a kitchen cabinet door like this. And here I've attached the holder to my door. It opens up to about 2.75 inches, so it can attach to many, many different things. Another place that you could attach it is to a window frame because it's allowing in that great light to be shining on you while holding your camera steady at the right spot. It's super adaptable, but I don't recommend trying to attach it to your golden retriever puppy. And if for some reason you want the camera down really low, you can attach it to something like the base of your cabinets. But the key here, super adaptable and you can use this to attach your smartphone to just about anything around your house and to get into the perfect location. So check out that video that's a review of this and I'll see you in the next video.
