Affordable Camera System/Mounts at the NAM Store

After nearly 8 months of intense R&D, and thousands of dollars later, I bring to you the affordable Camera Mounting Systems for the MINI known simply as the VacuCam.

Go here to see it:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...d=25&cat=&page=

Over the next few days, I will roll out the complete line which features between 1 to 3 cameras and in fully switchable configurations. What's that mean? With the push of a button, without taking your eyes off the road, even simpler than changing radio stations, you can switch between 1 of 4 cameras*.

I will also be carrying one of the best LANC remotes available which was designed for Xtreme Sports enthusiasts. This greatly enhances your recording time, and viewing enjoyment.

Want to know what else is great about the VacuCam?
It's as easy to install as a lightbulb and takes only a few seconds. Just open the clamp, press the rubber mount firmly, close the clamp to lock it, and thread in the camera to hold everything securely!

And best of all, as a MINI enthusiast, and avid consumer like yourselves, my kits are unlike anything else on the market. Each kit is hand assembled and designed for completeness. You just supply a recording device such as a camcorder or portable VCR, and we'll do the rest.

So check them out!


* (oh the infamous Asterisk--while I plan to only sell 3 camera systems, you can buy a fourth individually from me as well).

It's finally here! I know many of you have been eagerly awaiting the multicamera options and they are in the NAM store now. I originally began with a concept of "Ready To Roll" and "Almost Ready To Roll", but later realized, all of the kits I sell are "Ready To Roll".

There are 1 to 3 camera options. There are also multiple 1 camera kits with varying options, so please read them carefully, or PM me for more help.

If you think you might want to go multicamera, get the Deluxe kits. If you aren't sure, and just want to try things out, go for either of the single camera options.

Need help deciding which kit to buy? Maybe I've confused you with all the options. Hope this guide will help!

1.) You want a low cost entry in shooting video from your car choose:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1

2.) You want a low cost entry in shooting video but might want to also shoot from the interior of your car as well:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1


3.) You would like to get started in shooting Multiangle Video, but you want to start out in the most economical way, you can start with 1 Camera and add on to it later. You just need to decide if you plan to shoot mostly exterior shots or would like the flexibility to also shoot interior as well.

For Exterior only:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1

For Interior and Exterior:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1


4.) You want a Complete 2 Camera Setup, you just provide a camcorder and patch cable for recording and we provide the rest.
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1

5.) You want a Complete 3 Camera Setup, same as above:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1


6.) You want to be able to control your video camcorder easily and safely, and you are using a Canon or Sony camcorder with a LANC port. Works with any of the above kits.
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...&cat=10&page=1

All the Video kits can be found here:
http://store.northamericanmotoring.c...ome.php?cat=10

If you have an existing kit, and want to upgrade, just PM me and I'll help you select the right combo.
