Glide Gear OH 75 Overview

Designed for overhead photo and video capture and applications such as food photography or product assembly tutorials, the OH 75 Overhead Portable Pole Rig from Glide Gear has a maximum payload of 15 lb, and it allows you to mount the included 6' long, 2-section pole on two C-stands (sold separately) and attach your camera to the pole.

Two pole clamps mount on separate C-stands using the included baby pin posts, and then the pole is secured to a clamp at each end. The system supports using any pole or speed rail between 1 to 2" in diameter, allowing you to use a shorter pole if desired. The included camera support then attaches to the pole and offers a slotted mounting platform with a 1/4"-20 screw. The camera support can be moved along the length of the pole and tightened into place with its fastening knobs. The camera support additionally offers two 1/4"-20 threaded mounting holes for attaching articulating arms or other accessories along with the camera.

Key Features
  • Includes two pole clamps and baby pin posts that secure the included pole to C-stands (not included).
  • An included camera support attaches to the pole to hold a camera overhead for applications such as food photography or product assembly tutorials.

Works as should

The camera mount is only one screw, so you gotta trust it to hold your DSLR. I'd attach a safety cable to the plate to be safe. The rods are flimsy-ish. They are great for just one small camera, but I wish they were longer. It seems like the other Glide Gear Kit has longer rods. Either way, the mounting plate and 2 mounting points are awesome and it gets the job done. VERY easy setup.

I have this in 2 studios for overhead camera work. I used an amazon shelf pole for the top pole and mounted it on 2 c stands and it works fantastic - love how easy it is.

As the headline says, this rig is simple to set up and holds a DSLR size camera just fine

Unsafe

We experienced a very dangerous failure where the 1/4 bolt attaches onto the clamp that holds the crossbar. This screw snapped while in use and the rig came crashing down. Luckily no one was hurt. These screws are not secure meaning they can be unscrewed during slight stand adjustments. Perhaps this rig is good for lightweight use but nothing more.

This is a genius bit of kit...

I will be using this for overhead shots for product videos. Easy to set up and very well built. I am a little puzzled by the pole clamps - they don't clamp to a light stand. I see now that my kit didn't come with the baby pin posts.

A little disappointed in the sturdiness of the pole, would like to attach ends to regular light stands but seems they only fit on C Stands...Reasonable price, would have rather just had the camera holder and end pieces and bought my own pole.

set screws don't keep poles in place
