Is this short whip just for photography and it's 52" high? If really this short, is behind my sedan's rear window a suitable location for it?

It has a regular with the short whip is only for the picture. I put one of these antennas on a Dodge pick up on the fender it works outstanding your trunk lid would be a great place for it

It is full length, 52" sounds about right. I have 14 of these on different vehicles and they perform well.

I have this item.. Its a standard height not shorty like the pic its 52 inch tall and requires the cable witht the mounting bracket sold seperatly. Its identical to the max rad types

The photo makes it seem far far shorter than it is. I use it on the lid of my trunk on my Audi A4.

I am a ham operator and have installed more auto antennas than I could count. This has a long whip, short whip looks to be just chopped for photo. Assume you are going to use a trunk lip mount that will require at least 1 of the mount screws to go to metal under lip of trunk. Should be able to get swr down to 1.5 to 1 depending on how close the whip is to metal. this antenna worked out just fine for me. Steve -WB9SNS

No it is a long whip that you will have to cut down. It would be fine on the trunk.

I've got the opposite problem. I placed mine in the rear, but the image is NOT reversed. Wish I could trade cameras. I didn't notice this until it was installed in my rear bumper.

It's best to mount this behind the Rearview mirror. Some cars have too steep of a windshield. You are better off using the 3M adhesive mount. (much shorter) There is also a 3rd party ball sock mount if you search for RCPANO2S360

I was kinda wondring the same thing. Im looking for a rear camera for car when driving or when sitting still at red light. Hope someone can send me to the right product.

The bolt should be facing up, so it's above the camera. The camera is angled down so you'll be able to see the ground and area behind the vehicle.

Don't have it in front of me at the moment but its not tall.. Not full size tripod..

Yes, I use it and I am over 6 feet tall. I assume you want to use it for photography.

My camera was that small too. I wouldn't use this product with that. If you are going to put it on the windshield it just puts the camera too close to windshield to position the camera.

Because it is short, there is not much rise. Unless your current stem has little to no rise at all, I don't know you will get much more height with this one. For length it was just what I needed and well worth the price.

Not sure what you mean by the "short end". I am 5'4" and this unit works perfectly. I believe it is adjustable when you put it together, which BTW, requires a LOT of patience. I DO use this and it's a life saver and doesn't take much space, is sturdy for me at 150 pounds. I am very satisfied. Reading the OTHER answer, I likely like this because I had no comparison. I don't think it is junk, but if you are comparing a Honda to a Cadillac, there is going to be a difference. Some people think Hondas are JUNK. I drive an Escalade and probably, because I have the comparison, wouldn't be happy in a Honda. That said, if you have limited space, limited funds, and you don't mind the aggravation of putting this thing together, I think it IS useful. I don't stay on it longer than 20 minutes, so even with eleven slipped disks, the material, like a canvas, isn't particular comfortable, but it does the job of inverting your spine quite well. If money and space are not issues, maybe go with one that has memory foam, or use a little throw pillow if you need one.

You will be able to see not as much as if the camera was to be outside. NOW, the distance marks will not show the distance the way that it shows on a normal position right under the rear bumper. Yo will have to guess distance, for that matter just look out the window.

With the "orange" on top, the whip is a bit longer than a driver...in the 45 to 46 inch range

It's called an Xit XT50TRS. Fully extended it is barely above 4 ft tall. Somewhat flimsy but extremely lightweight if you had to carry it to the back country. Otherwise, you would prefer a real tripod. There is a YouTube flick on it if you want to look at it and get an opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQt418Ms_F4

not exactly long as you have the whip sticking out above the windshield far enough where you don't have no interference

It's not that tall but I've found that recording at lower level works very well for picking up all the instruments in a live band performance. The wide angle lens still makes it possible to capture the whole stage and many of the dominating higher frequencies are brought into a better balance with the bass and kick drum. Of course it depends on what it is you are shooting. Hope that helps.

Not sure what you mean? The camera fits right above above the rear license.

I am traveling in a car that does not have this mount in it, but it is a longer, two-section arm than most. If you don't want it to extend very far, it can be folded down and the phone swiveled to keep it facing in the desired direction. Conversely, if you have it fully extended (as straight out as possible) it is several inches. Short of actually telescoping, it is extremely versatile, offering quite a bit of reach--all while feeling like you could do pull-ups on the thing!
