The Ringo Head is a camera accessory that allows an operator to mount any professional video camera at 90 degrees. New production styles can require images to be captured in a vertical orientation rather than the traditional horizontal mode. This technique is often used in point of sale, fashion, and event display environments. The Ringo Head allows an operator to easily mount their camera at a right angle and operate with existing tripod heads, jibs, and Steadicams. The Ringo Head keeps the camera's center of gravity and lens aligned over the center of a tripod head. The Ringo Head consists of a horizontal plate that attaches to a tripod wedge plate, a fixed vertical support that holds a camera's quick release plate, and an adjustable vertical support that holds the camera handle.The Ringo Head system is protected by US Patent 7883279B2.
