Anti-vibration mounts for PTZ cameras?

[Thomas, Harry (CIV)]

Have you tried any, and if so, how well did they work. We're getting lots of vibration coupled through the wall ours are mounted on, but we have no other mounting locations available in this venue.

Thanks,

Harry

Harry,

I have used several strips of thick, double sided sticky tape between the mount and the wall surface to absorb some of the vibrations. If the wall is truly moving then I guess I would look to hanging it out of the ceiling, depending on the height your looking for. I used rubber washers at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, MD to isolate ceiling mounted projectors from the overhead. The Navy was test firing a 5" and shaking the place up. Good luck.

Harry,

If it makes sense for the location, you might also consider repositioning the camera to a lower level on a tripod or something similar. When used for videoconferencing, we have found that high-mounted cameras almost always provide a camera angle that is hard to look at for the partner and ends up interfering with effective communication.
