Product Information

Full details

The Elgato Master Mount L is designed for creators and professionals who need a stable and versatile mounting solution for cameras, lights, and other accessories. Its primary benefit is its extendable height and robust construction, offering maximum stability for various setups. A key caveat is that it's part of a modular system, meaning additional components may be needed for complex configurations. This mount features a height range from 55 cm to 125 cm, a 1/4-inch screw, a ball head for precise angling, and a padded clamp for secure attachment.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity of the Master Mount L?

While a specific weight limit isn't stated, the Master Mount L is built from durable steel and designed for stability. It's suitable for most standard cameras, lights, and accessories. For very heavy equipment, ensure it's balanced and consider additional support if needed.

Can I use the Master Mount L as a floor stand?

The Master Mount L is designed primarily as a clamp-on mount. To use it as a freestanding floor stand, you would need to purchase the Elgato Weighted Base separately, as it's part of the modular Multi Mount system.

What is the maximum height and minimum height?

The Master Mount L extends from a minimum height of 55 cm (22 inches) up to a maximum height of 125 cm (49 inches).

Is the 1/4-inch screw removable?

Yes, the 1/4-inch screw is a standard mounting point and is typically removable, allowing you to attach different accessories.

How do I clean the padded clamp?

You can wipe the padded clamp with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could degrade the padding.

Can I attach multiple accessories to one Master Mount L?

The Master Mount L itself has one primary 1/4-inch screw mount. However, you can attach accessories with multiple mounting points, or use other Multi Mount components like the Flex Arm Kit to extend its reach and add more attachments.

Is the Master Mount L compatible with non-Elgato accessories?

Yes, the standard 1/4-inch screw mount is a universal standard, making it compatible with most cameras, lights, and accessories from various brands. Its modularity shines when paired with other Elgato Multi Mount parts.

Troubleshooting

Mount feels unstable or wobbly.

Ensure the clamp is tightened securely onto the surface. Check that all telescopic height adjustment locks are fully tightened. Verify that the mounted device is not exceeding the mount's weight capacity.

1/4-inch screw is loose or damaged.

Inspect the screw for damage. If loose, try tightening it by hand or with a small tool if necessary. If the thread is damaged, consider if a replacement screw or adapter is needed.

Clamp won't grip surface securely.

Check the thickness of the surface to ensure it's within the clamp's 6 cm limit. Clean the clamp padding and the surface for better grip.

Ball head is stiff or won't hold position.

Gently try to loosen and re-tighten the ball head adjustment mechanism. If still stiff, ensure no debris is obstructing movement. If it won't hold, the mechanism may require professional attention.
