Rig Shots

Rig Shots provides a range of components designed to help the automotive photographer to quickly and efficiently mount a camera, still or video, to just about anything that moves to get that elusive rig shot. Rig Shots supplies a range of suction or vacuum cups, various rods, clamps, adapters, Neutral Density filters and various custom made components as well as complete kits, limpet vehicle mounts, automotive rigs, or car mounts.

Many of the rigs sold here are well suited for use with video equipment (subject to weight) as the rigs can be concealed in the shot rather than removed in post production.

Learn how to create a rig shot from the online guide or from case studies of rig shots with detailed explanations of how the images were created and about the rigs used to create them.
