Does anyone have a suggestion for something that would allow me to comfortably shoot videos with my IPhone 5s. I would like to take videos of my son's basketball games and holding the phone over a long period of time can be a bit tiring.

Hmm. Anything that has a tripod to the floor which I could pan left and right?

I'm not really into making something myself. Matthew, I think that iHandle is close to what I am looking for. Anyone know what the device is at 0:45 in this movie where the guy is taking a video of girls and boys playing with an iPad?

Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I guess my search skills are not as good as they used to be. I was just not coming across the items you all were suggesting. Thanks.

Hi Tony, I just have read your challenge. At times I am tested when I need to come up with a solution for a, what seems to be a unique problem.  Knowing what your doing with the Iphone is half the battle. For me I would want to come up with a hands free solution based on the hat idea. When at public events takes pictures which I used to do professionally the last thing I want to manage is another device like a tripod. In some situations you almost need to tie them to your self to keep from them growing legs.

As you say your not into making stuff or having to figure it out. I'm that way to when I don't have special tools it takes for a project. So I find people to do things like attaching Velcro and elastic band to the back of a basic Iphone case which you can find for cheap. With a head band set up you can have forward facing or any side of your head. Sort of a poor mans GoPro camera. Or you could save yourself all this time and just get a GoPro on Amazon because they are designed to be mounted on almost anything. Best Wishes with your search Tony.
