RAM Camera Mounts:

RAM Camera Mounts for kayaks are some of the best mounts on the market for mounting to a kayak. Like most other mounts RAM has adopted the YakAttack Gear Track System for some of their mounts and being that the RAM ball was developed. RAM mounts are made in the USA and carry a lifetime warranty.

Ram Flex Arm:

One of the best stationary camera mounts I have used. The unique aluminum rod is easily malleable to bend the shaft in different directions. The rod is rigid enough to hold position. IT does take a bit of force to bend the rod into the desired position. Along with the RAM ball top which you can add YakAttatack or Ram extensions. The Ram flex arm is easily mountable with a flush mount or a track mount system.

RAP-B-200-1-386-18U With flush mount base

RAP-B-200-1-114P-18U With post spline mount quick release (mouthing base not included)

RAM Composite Flat Surface Mount with Custom GoPro® Hero Adapter:

Much like the YakAttack Panfish Portrait, besides the swivel ability this mount is handy for low profile mounting to a track or flush mount. The mount is inexpensive compared to others that have the same function. This mount can also be created if you already have the GoPro RAM ball adapter and a 1″ base mounted or screw ball for track mounting.

This mount can also be paired with accessories like the RAM Tough-Claw™ for mounting to railings or the RAM Tough-Clamp™ for clipping to anything else. The Tough clamp is great for quick camera angles.

Ram Medium Tough Claw RAP-B-404U $35.80 (these vary in size from small to large)

Ram Tough Clamp RAP-B-397-2U $21.02 (these vary in size from small to large)

RAM Telescoping Pole Mount:

This is one of my favorite cam mounts from RAM. One end of the mount clamps to a broom stick or telescoping painters pole. Personally I attached one to a telescoping boat hook with over 7′ in distance! The other using a RAM link and the 1″ RAM ball for GoPro or a 1/4-20 threaded ram ball connects to your favorite action camera.

GoPro filters are almost a necessity when capturing underwater or above water footage. The definition of a filter is a piece of glass secured over the camera lens to create image effects, balance, and enhancements. In the case of the gopro there are several filter options created. Being an action camera the GoPro can go into different environments. Filters can help enhance the raw video.

This article covers several available filters by Polar Pro that snap over the GoPro Hero 4/3+ housings.

Polarizer Filter:

The glass lens is easily installed/removed by pushing on and pulling off the standard GoPro housing. The polarizer is for use above the waterline.

Effects of the Poarizer are:

• Great Reduction of Glare
• Improved Color Saturation
• Capturing Sharper Images
• Includes storage bag and tether

The Polorizer is ideal for snow and watersports.

Magenta Filter:

This filter is for use in capturing underwater footage. The new treated lens is 10x stronger than previous lenses. The magenta is Iridium Arylic which provides precise color correction in green tinted waters. Like the Polorizer lens the magenta lens is push pull on off the standard GoPro housing.

• Green water color correction
• Working depth up to 75 feet
• Storage bag and tether included

Red Filter:

Like the magenta filter for use underwater but suited for color correction in blue water.

• Blue water color correction
• Working depth up to 75 feet
• Storage bag and tether included

Neutral Density:

This filter is more for fast moving video capture. It may be used for action shots from outside your vehicle to give a blur fast moving effect. The glass lens is for optimal clarity and like all of the other filters is a push/pull on of system. The Neutral Density filter is perfect for motorsports.

• Slows down cameras shutter speed
• Eliminates jello effect and wobble
• Illustrates High Speed Movement

Macro Lens:

The macro lense is for close-ups. Like the Polorizer and Neutral Density lens’s it is all glass for optimal clarity.

• 3.8x Magnification
• Focus distance from 3 – 12 inches
• Capture creative close up shots

YakAttack Camera Mounts:

Panfish Camera Pole With Extension:

The Panfish as the first camera mounting option offered by Yak Attack is a great camera mounting solution!  With the adjustable Ram Mount ball head and 28″ pole that also swivels the camera mount is ideal for behind back shots , hero selfish shots, and underwater footage. The RAM Ball head allows the camera to be easily maneuvered to any angle on the fly. It has 3 mounting options which are the RAM Mount, The Mighty Mount/Gear Track T-bolt, and Scotty Mount. Along with other Yak Attack and RAM Mount pieces you can extend or modify camera angles. The pole with the foam measuring around 2 1/2″ in diameter will fit snug in most rod holders. The Yak Attack Dog Bone can be added to the head portion to extend the mounting distance.

The Panfish camera pole alone retails from $60.00 – $65.00 depending on the choice of mounting.

Panfish Portrait:

The Panfish Portrait like its much bigger brother is the same concept besides being a fraction the size in height. The mount is best for low angle shots and hero shots with a lightweight and compact action camera. The RAM mount  allows articulation and clamping in many different positions. Personally this mount is used in the front of the kayak. If you have a remote control for your action camera a GearTrac or a mighty mount can be added to the bow and the camera mounted here for extreme photos of you and your catch!

Dog Bone:

Dog Bone is a Yak Attack Engineered RAM Mount extension pole between for use between RAM links. With two ram balls on each end it kind of resembles a dog bone!
