Anyone use it for video recording via iphone while driving? I've tried several mounts &amp; 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 at https://www.facebook.com/Jmediaphotography?ref=hl I'm looking at getting longer arms, you'll notice in one of the videos you can see the suction part of the mount still.

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

This boom is a BEAST! My guess is that if you are using an iPhone for an overhead video shoot, the size and weight of this boom might be a bit too much.Also, I have a difficult time keeping the rotation correct with a microphone - so you may have a challenge getting the angle you want with your iPhone - might take some engineering.

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.

For acoustic concert, this is a terrible camera. iPhone4 has a better sound quality than this. However, I'm wondering if the sound quality would get better with an external microphone. Anybody has had any experience on this?

I can say it is terrible with my Ipad. I drive a truck so there is some vibration but it will not make a 30 minute trip without having to adjust it. I'd try something else. Hope this helps.

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

That's a good question. iPhone on mobile mount on Camalapse will not tilt UNLESS Camalapse is on a head which tilts. It might be a bit funky looking to tilt and rotate camera at the same time though...

Check dimensions of Iphone 5 to 5C.... This mount/case is not very stable (very shaky) when used for auto racing. Also the touchscreen portions bows-out when the case get hot and makes navigating on the screen pretty difficult. I am not sure your application or if you will have these issues......

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.

No. I did not notice anything as far as damage to the phone from vibration. However, if you are looking into using the video while you ride, than yes, it is not going to be that clear when using a phone to video your ride.

I have not had that problem, but I don't record for long periods of time (the videos get too boring for continuous recordings). I used it mostly outside and on my motorcycle. One of my trips was in Texas in July, 100+ everyday and no issues. I would only record for short periods of time, 5 to 10 minutes here and there when the scenery or roads were picture/video worthy. It takes great video and pictures, I'm very happy with the camera. It's even been through rain with no issues.

I use the YCam app and it works fine for me for sound and live video. I think there are several others that work with it as well, maybe some others can chime in too

Hey! I've only used the mic feature once on my girlfriends iPhone. Seems to only work on apple products. I use android which I can't get the mic to work. It might just be my phone though. When I used it I thought it was good. Nice and clear. I've never been on the other side but I didn't get any complaints from the person.

I have the same microphone and used my iphone4 to record and only got the recording through the onboard mic. The lapel is great but I think it is set up for use with recorders. I use it with the ZoomH1 but you could use a cheaper recorder Olympus VN-7200 Digital Voice Recorder (V404130BU000)

I've used iphone 4 and 5S to record videos while I was on the track numerous times. I can't say for other phones.
