Wheelchair Photography Tips & Tricks

[@gregade]

Thanks for this tips... I am also shooting sitting on a wheelchair and these tips are just what I needed.

"The best camera in the world is the one you have with you." It's an old cliche but very true. Photography can get very, very expensive, we all know that. But what you pointed out about not needing all that stuff is spot on. Granted, some of the things you featured in your (excellent) video are indeed very help especially if, like you and I, you have a disability. But as we know from experience, it's a bout making the most of what you've got and what you can afford. Many thanks for the video. Very helpful.

I'm a 62 year old paraplegic , great video!!

I love this video - I'm still working on how to get my camera and my wheelchair to work together but this video has given me some really good ideas

[@spacegirlchaz]

Great video, thank you Kirk! I am obsessed with your 'modified selfie stick', is this something you made yourself? It looks like an absolute game changer, and although I am not into videography, the stabilisation on that Osmo is enviable. It'd be great to know a bit more about the gyroscopic/gimbal stuff you've got going on too. Thank you for this!

This is so interesting! Though I'm not a photographer myself (though I am in a wheelchair lol), I was looking to get some tips on how to work what I've got because I'm going to be trying to take some nice candid shots during my mom and dad's vow renewal, so this was a fun watch!

Awesome video. Im a photography student who does videos too. i have been trying to figure out how to get around some problems and i have found some ideas in your video. thank you

[@DerBaxxter]

Thanks for sharing your Tips. I sit in wheelchair, too. C5 Tetraplegic since 24 years. I decided to film as Hobby and bought a camera (LUMIX G85) and i still don't know how i mount the Cam on my Sopur Xenon2 to move AND film at the same time. I saw your Video and this mount arm seems a nice solution.

Please give me 10 seconds im quadriplegic been doing gospel before I got hurt this is my testimony kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6nFmomVq6prfaM

[@erevolutie]

Awesome! Thanks for the info from a quad c5/c6 from the Netherlands. What sort of mound do you have on your wheelchair?

[@DavidLipsyEagleEyePhotography]

Hello Kirk, This is all new to me... the fact that I can no longer just grab my gear and head out. As a nature photographer specializing in birds, I am determined to keep going. To be honest, this is more of a full-time hobby than a business, though I'd like to turn that around very soon. You have some great thoughts and more so... they really look to work great! I'd like to talk to you some day when you're not running around the globe if you can find the time. You came to me from a message from a friend of yours, M. Burns. Thank you, David Lipsy

Great Video! Amongst my many cameras (not bragging!) I have a Ricoh GR3x. And as someone in a wheelchair (L2-L5 para) this wee thing is invaluable to my style of street photography. APS-C and fits in your pocket, it's that small 😊

J Lawson 0 seconds ago Hi, thanks for the video. I use a manual wheelchair and I’m looking for a good way to mount my camera to my chair. I hate carrying a tripod but I shoot at longer focal lengths a lot. I kind of like the way you have yours mounted to your armrest but I don’t have armrests.

[@rjmeck1]

Great video, love the ideas. Can you tell me where I can get the modified magic arm with lever cam locks? Thanks for showing how to control a drone!

[@ButterflyBuddhaBreathwork]

*Thank you for this video! I'm taking an online audio and video production course. This has given me a lot of ideas and exactly what I was looking for*

[@showoffpraise1]

I just want to be able to constantly film life I'm quadriplegic I got to go pro just don't know how to get it mounted discreetly

[@grafix8789]

What gear are you using to mount your DSLR to your wheelchair in this video?

[@randywallis9624]

What’s the best 35mm mount for a power wheelchair?

[@acamilop]

This is amazing.

[@DaveSquibbSr]
