Default Camera mounting

Does anyone know where to find a mount I can stick my camera on in the jk? I wanted to film some offroading stuff without having to hold the camera while I am driving...I guess I could always use ducktape but would rather do something else.

The window mount for my spotting scope also works for my Canon F1.

I've got a really simple way that I did it. I already had some for something else but you can just go to Lowe's and ask them for the sticky velcro pads. Get the ones that are large (about 2 x 3 inches and stick one to the bottom of the camera and one to the plate thingy in the middle of your dash, or any other place on the dash for that matter. It aint gonna let loose either, pretty strong stuff.

Here is a link to a thread on mostly video cameras but has some good ideas.

Ram Mounts are stellar products.

Take a look at I/O Port Racing Supplies as well. I used one of their mounts in a Porsche I used on track and it worked great. Highly adjustable and rock solid. I had mine mounted to the back of the rear seat for a clear view out the windshield, but it is actually made to mount on a roll bar.
