Camera stabilization apparatus for use in aquatic environment

摘要

The apparatus for stabilizing a camera when used in an underwater environment comprises a hand grab having a flat top surface, the flat top surface of the hand grab slidably engaging a pair of elongate parallel rods at a proximal end of the rods, the rods further slidably engaging, at a distal end thereof, a platform resting upon the rods which engages a camera base, and a fin of predetermined configuration, the fin being slidably engaged upon the rods at a position between the proximal and distal ends thereof, the structures being movable along the length of the rods to establish a stabilization of the camera as a user is moving through water, or as water is moving past the camera. Further, at least one distally directed light source is provided suitably engaged to or provided on an undersurface of the fin.

主权项

1. An apparatus for stabilizing a camera when used in an aquatic environment, the apparatus comprising a hand grab having a flat top surface, the flat top surface of the hand grab including connector means for slidably engaging a pair of elongate parallel rods at a proximal end of the rods, the rods further slidably engaging, at a distal end thereof, similar connector means on an undersurface of a platform resting upon the rods, the platform includes means for engaging a camera base, a fin of predetermined configuration also being slidably engaged upon the rods by similar connector means on an undersurface thereof at a position between the proximal and distal ends of the rods; all of the slidably engaged structures being movable along the length of the rods to establish a stabilization of the camera as a user is moving through water, or as water is moving past the camera.
