Anyone use it for video recording via iphone while driving? I've tried several mounts & all have resulted in a shaky video recording.

Hi Eddie.I used it to recorded some videos at a recent track day.Links to videos athttps://www.facebook.com/Jmediaphotography?ref=hlI'm looking at getting longer arms, you'll notice in one of the videos you can see the suction part of the mount still.

Just used it today for a track event as well with my iphone 5. I even have a rubber case, and the video was jittery. I tried mounting it in various locations, but unfortunately that didn't work. My friend who had a cheap $10 mount for his Iphone 4 had worked MUCH better than this RAM mount. I was very disappointed. The videos are watchable, but clearly shaky. Was definitely expecting better performance based on the reviews

I don't use my phone to record alot of video. I especially don't record in 4k video resolution.... but I haven't had issues recording in 1080p resolution... please note that my videos do not exeed 20mins.

Yes, you can take videos, but although the phone will remain in place, it will probably giggle too much if mounted on handle bars. It won't be completely stable especially if trail riding. It may giggle, but not slip.

This was a great microphone for that. Unfortunately for me the plug end which snaps into the iphone fell apart in about a month of use and although Edutige support answered quickly, things died and I never received the RMA to replace. If you buy, I believe you will be happy with the experience, especially if it stays together. Good luck.

Hi again. Just tried mine out while recording a video and zooming in and out just as you asked, and it's silent. Sorry -- it does seem that you've got a lemon.

Will not stick to dash. Need to mount to windshield.I've used mine with a Sony HandyCam on an old railroadgrade, with holes big enough to eat a truck!! Stayedmounted the entire trip and more.Even the cold of winter did not bother it. Had it mounted, on a couple of trips to the Denver area.Just in case something did happen.Came undone a couple of times, but only due to operator error!I didn't get the suction cup firmly attached! Great piece to have.

My wife and I use ours on fairly rough paved trail riding. Lots of cracks and bumps we hit at 20 mph or so. Our phones (in our cases even) don't pop loose. Also, the ball mount swivel thing seems sturdy enough not to change position. Over time it may loosen (that's my worry) but that is only speculation. Haven't had any problems with ours. Make sure your phone is clamped in tight.

I mounted the physical mic on my steering column. Works well. I have not had any complaints about not being able to hear me. Siri works well with it.

Have used this videocam at nite as a car dash camera and on my bike. So far have no problems. Better than my obsolete go pro hero I that I have over used for over 2 years. The built-in video screen will give you the answer to your question too.

I haven't noticed any shaking/ vibration. However, I haven't used it as a dash cam.

It overwrites old video - if need be, copy files to your computer. As far as iPhone, sorry but I have never tried it

If you are in a moving vehicle your video may be shaky from the movement of the car but otherwise I think your phone would stay stable - I love this product - bought one for myself and my boyfriend who drives a jeep and they stick really good to the dash - neither of our phones have ever fallen out- the grip is amazing.

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.

I haven't used the camera mouted inside the car, if that's what you're asking. I've used mine for offroading and filmed using the handle bar mount (see test here http://youtu.be/WKd8nLz3vT4) and on the front hood (see test here http://youtu.be/GOxi9o36dm0).I must warn that the camera doesn't quite fit the shell case so it rattles inside the case. I advise to put a small rubber, plastic or paper to make the camera fit tightly inside the shell.I hope this helps!

Yes, I did. It's very helpful for me when driving. It can't drop under not smooth road.I used it on iPhone 4S.

I had my ipad in a case. I had to take it out because it blocked my camera. I am not sure what is going on. I watched the screen while I filmed. I did not have a problem. I would recommend a remote mike because while I could hear what was said on the video, it was nt best quality. I was filing from 10 to 12 feet away so I could get the whole stage.

More information is needed. What kind of camera are you using, how fast are you going, what kind of surface are you driving on, how are you configuring the mount?
