I am considering getting another camera arm for the Treestand while saddle hunting, and I know there are several options that are extremely small, almost micro in size. Just trying to see if anybody has used any of these OR other newer small camera arm models out there. Has to be really small, micro sized for saddle use. NOT even sure these that I've listed are small enough?

Hunt3D - the carbon camera arm

custom gear modifications - reach around camera arm

G3D - sub one camera arm

These are the smallest that I have found. If there is another sub 1 pound arms out there, I’d be interested in seeing it. Just wondering how they function, if they support a phone or a bigger camera, and how easy they are to pack in, set up, and take down.

leaning towards the CGM reach around camera arm


 
I havent used the CGM but looked it over pretty close at the mobile hunter expo back in the summer. If I was going to film with my phone, it is perfect. Very small, very light, easy to install. @always89y may chime in with what weight of camera it would hold but I wouldnt try to film with a regular video recorder or a dslr on it. It might work, but that is not what his arm is built for as I understand it.

Thanks

I’m leaning towards that one.
 
With the 3 sections it comes with, it will hold 2 lbs. Remove one and it's 5lbsbut reach limited. It is probably to small for a dlsr or heavier camera
