Product Information
Full details
The Zoom ACM-1 Action Camera Mount is designed for content creators and videographers who need a reliable, high-utility connection between their audio gear or standard tripod equipment and action cameras. It excels by enabling seamless integration of three-prong GoPro-style mounts onto industry-standard 1/4-inch mounting points, providing exceptional stability for various capture setups. However, users should note that the mount is strictly an adapter and does not include independent articulation or tilting capabilities beyond what your existing tripod head provides.

FAQs
Is this mount compatible with GoPro cameras?
Yes, the Zoom ACM-1 features a standard three-prong interface that is fully compatible with GoPro cameras and most other action cams.
Can I use this on a standard microphone stand?
Yes, as long as your microphone stand has a 1/4-inch thread adapter, this mount will attach perfectly.
Does the mount allow the camera to tilt?
No, the mount itself is static. You must rely on the tilt or pan functionality of the tripod or arm to which the mount is attached.
Is this product made of plastic or metal?
The mount is engineered for durability, utilizing high-quality materials designed to securely hold your equipment during use.
What is the maximum weight this mount can hold?
The mount is designed for standard action cameras and portable video recorders. Avoid using it with heavy DSLRs or large cinema cameras.
Troubleshooting
Camera feels loose or wobbles after tightening.
Ensure the screw is fully threaded through both prongs and check if the rubber washer is correctly positioned against the camera housing.
The mount will not screw onto the tripod.
Verify that your tripod is using a standard 1/4-inch screw; some older equipment may use larger 3/8-inch bolts which would require a separate adapter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the mount, simply screw the base of the ACM-1 onto your tripod's 1/4-inch bolt until finger-tight. Once secure, insert your action camera between the three prongs, align the mounting holes, and thread the included tactile screw through. Tighten until the camera is held firmly in place.
Regarding compatibility, this device works with all standard 1/4-inch mounts and three-prong action camera housings. To care for your mount, keep the threaded areas free of debris and sand. If the mount is used in humid or salty environments, wipe it down with a dry, lint-free cloth after use to prevent material buildup on the screw threads.
