As mobile phones continue to exceed their basic uses, both consumers and professionals are now finding new and interesting ways to make use of these gadgets in their artistic applications. Photographers and videographers, for example, have started using their smartphones alongside more high-tech cameras to help them capture impressive material and improve their workflows.
But because smartphones are not primarily made for photography or videography, specialized mounts are typically required to ensure that they can be seamlessly integrated into any type of setup.
In addition to their specialized professional workstation tools and highly efficient cable management options, Tether Tools has also come up with the perfect solution for using your smartphone in all kinds of photo, video, or audio applications—the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount.
If you’re looking for a reliable mounting system for your phone, read on to learn more about the latest offering from Tether Tools.
Tether Tools’ Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount
The Tether Tools Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount () looks like a regular smartphone accessory holder at first, but there’s actually more to it than its outward physical appearance. Its upgraded version has non-slip interior pads and can securely hold bigger devices up to 3.35in (85mm) wide, like the iPhone 6s Plus. It can also hold action cameras, microphones, small lights, and other small accessories.
The Rock Solid LoPro has three 1/4″-20 female adapters around its small body, allowing it (and your paired device) to be attached on any tripod, clamp, or grip for a wide variety of applications.
But the magic behind this versatile accessory lies in how it works with Tether Tools’ other mounting accessories. See how you can use the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount below:
Mounting on Cameras
Use the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount to mount your smartphone on top of your professional camera by simply pairing it with Tether Tools’ Rock Solid Hot Shoe 1/4”-20 Adapter (), which is designed to fit standard hot shoe mounts. This allows you to:
- Record with your phone and professional camera simultaneously
- Use the smartphone as a teleprompter, selfie monitor, or entertainment display for capturing children’s attention
- Hold a small LED flash for your DSLR or mirrorless camera
- Attach both the smartphone and LED flash (via the Rock Solid LoPro’s top 1/4″-20 Adapter)
For extra reach, you can use the Tether Tools Look Lock System () with an articulating arm. It also has a hot shoe mount that can be attached to your professional camera and already comes with the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount for free.
Mounting on Tripods
With the help of Tether Tools’ Rock Solid EasyGrip (starting at ), you can mount your device and the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount to any tripod leg or the edge of any flat surface, such as doors and tables. This also allows you to attach power banks, like the Rock Solid 10000mAh External Battery Pack (), to help keep power sources organized and within reach.
Mounting on Walls and Tables
Easily mount your phone on walls and other flat surfaces with the help of the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount and the RapidMount Q20 (). The RapidMount Q20 has a fully rotating and tilting 1/4″-20 arm that directly attaches to the Rock Solid LoPro Phone Mount’s screw holes, so you can adjust the smartphone to face other directions or place the device on a table as a phone stand.
This matching surface mount comes with 10 pieces of RapidStrips that securely attaches the mount to flat surfaces and can be removed without leaving a sticky residue.
The RapidMount Q20 can also hold your smartphone and a small LED flash at the same time, allowing you to create your own selfie station.
