Hi chaps, I was just wondering if you could help me identify a couple of bits of equipment. I've just been helping my Mum clear out some of my late fathers stuff from the loft, and came across these two pieces.
To me they look to good to throw away so was hoping to stick them on ebay, but I don't know what they are called and what they're for or their value. If they're not worth anything or are obsolete, I'll just try the local charity shop.
Many thanks in advance.


Some sort of shoulder mount for a camera? Looks fully adjustable, made of alloy and plastic, trigger on front pistol grip. Marked GT dynamic holder, Japan on front of pistol grip.


Second one is some sort of copy stand (I can read! smile ), but for copying what? looks like a threaded mount that is height adjustable. Made by Canon, and called copy stand No.4.

first one looks like a zenith camera steady mount.

The second one was used to copy documents etc in the days before copiers/scanners etc.

Thanks for the help, I'll stick them on ebay to see if anyone fancies them.
