Hi all,
I was wondering if there was any product out there that I could attach to the end of my selfie stick so I could make my action cam swivel around so it can either face me or turn the other way.
I know of the spivo stick, but that one makes a disturbing noise and makes the camera turn super fast, resulting in a a very blurry transistion... Is there any other stick or stick extention piece that would allow me to do this?
Thanks a lot,

Kind regards,
Peter

George  Non-stop I watched used one, gonna have to follow  this topic. maybe  find a way to rig one up

Are you looking for a motorized swivel or just a manual one?

Hi, Thanks for answering.
I'm eager to explore both options. But it would be cool if it could swivel more than just once.

Well, manual swivel implies that you have to turn the camera. In which case you can turn it as many times as you wanted to :-)

Seeing the motorized option, I'm not sure if you wanna go with the manual way. I have this 360 swivel ball mount:

You can attach that to the selfie stick with this:

And of course you put this one at the top of the 360 mount and you attach the DJI magnetic adapter to this:

Yeah, I know, it's quite a setup so this might not be the one you looking for, but you can tilt, swivel, pan, turn the camera whichever direction you want at the end of the selfie stick - albeit you have to do it manually each time you want to change it.

Now that looks like a good bit of kit.

the Obsbot is a lot smoother people say over the telesin auto tracker but way more expensive that both ar light weight contenders

love to see a link to the Obsbot, because II putthat on my wish list, has to get modded  as its was only a smartphone  unit

Thanks for all the replies. I'd like a link to the Obsbot solution too

On the Hohem iSteady: it does not list the osmo action cam 4 as compatible... Also, does it allow me to rotate it manually? Thanks a lot!!!

hohem Isteady pro 4

That Hohem gimbal looks promising, but will it fit my osmo action cam 4 inside of its DJI case and with a Ulanzi cold shoe mount attached? I use it to attach the DJI mic 2 receiver sometimes...
Thanks a lot!!!

No it doesn't.
Else it would be too big for most action cameras.

not possible
max payload 170gr
with cold shoe and receiver out off balance.
You need a bigger Gimbal: Hohem M6 ore better MT2

An Osmo pocket 3 or Feiyutech pocket 3 on the DJI selfie stick is easier

How would I use the Hohem M6 with my Osmo Action Cam 4? The M6 is for smartphones, or is there a way to detach the smartphone clamp and attach an action cam clamp?
Thanks a lot!

hohem mt2

Thanks a lot everyone! I'll go for the iSteady 4pro Kit, as that has a stick, a remote and is splashproof

more multifunktional is the m6

I know that it is more versatile, but it is not splashproof. But if this one doesn't fill my needs, I guess I'll go for the MT2 instead of the M6. But thanks for all the advice, it is highly appreciated

you can try  a small cable strap & bt mic and remote
this is 20mm, I think  5-10mm are ok

I can use my phone

Some very impressive... and complicated solutions here. Here's how I deal with the problem using the selfie stick that comes with the Action 4 Adventure Kit and can be purchased seperately. I find it's very easy to tighten the screwpin so that it holds the Action 4 and it's mount pretty firmly in place but still allows me to easily tilt it. So if the Action 4 is pointing forward and I want to turn it to film myself I just reach out, bend it down and then flip the selfie stick over...it takes about 2 seconds. I have a YouTube channel in which I do a lot of hiking in jungles and scrambling up mountains and it's always worked, I've never had it where it's just too loose and moves itself while filming.

I like the way that Telesin tripod folds back on itself. You say it's a new model, what's the exact product name/number? Thanks

Foto is the old one
this is the new with extension rod
Telesin Aluminium tripod

you can use it with Hohem MT2

Thanks. I bought Telesin aluminium selfie stick that comes with the tripod that folds back on itself (I much prefer having a tripod permanently attached as I need it often, the foldback design is such a neat feature.)

I prefer the DJI selfie stick tbh  as it's tighter and longer but the Telesin tripod section is great and fits directly onto the DJI stick so I best of both worlds solution (looks like you did the same). It also came with an adjustable clip that adds a screw mount which I've also transfered over to the DJI stick.

isteady pro 4 and Hohem remote works well
