Eckla-Eagle-Kamera- und Objektivhalter für Autos

Excellent product and highly recommendable for wildlife and nature photographers who want to use their car as a solid base for their photograhy, especially with medium and long lenses!

A perfectly functional product, very well designed, a very good quality of manufacturing, with quality materials and attention to every detail.

Eckla Eagle is a solid base especially for shooting with long, heavy and medium weight, telephoto lenses.

Medium / small SUVs have rather small space between the driver and the car door and therefore the use of very long and heavy lenses (600mm f4) is rather restricted in amplitude and especially for driver ergonomics.
For these cars it is not only necessary but also almost mandatory to mount the Eckla Eagle on the outer face of the car door with the help of Eckla Suction cup holder.

This latter mode of installation allow very large ranges of movement both in vertical and horizontal directions and also a very comfortable and ergonomic use of cameras equipped with very long lenses.

I just experimented with shooting birds in flight with a 600mm f4 lens based on "Eckla Eagle" mounted on the outside with "Eckla Suction cup holder for Eckla-Eagle", using a fluid video head and the results were excellent. The freedom of movement was really, really great and allowed me to follow the subjects for a long time at many angular heights and in many directions, covering a sector of about 120 degrees horizontally.

Conclusion: An excellent built and rock solid base for photography! An almost perfect functionality and ergonomics!
Highly recommended for all wildlife and nature photographers that take pictures, even occasionally, from the car.
Easy installation and excellent functionality!
The addition of the suction cup is practically a must!
