Abstract

A camera mounting assembly for mounting a camera to a support structure. The mounting assembly including a first bracket fixable relative to the camera body such that the first bracket supports the camera. A second bracket engages the first bracket and is rotatable about a first axis relative to the second bracket. A third bracket supportingly engages the second bracket and is rotatable about a second axis relative to the third bracket. The first and second axes are substantially mutually perpendicular. The third bracket is securable to the support structure and is rotatable about a third axis relative to the support structure. The second and third axes are substantially mutually perpendicular. At least two of the first, second and third brackets are relatively translatable along a substantially linear length, and the first, second and third brackets are all securable relative to the support structure.
