  • Patent number: 9316888
    Abstract: A camera mount with a base and a cantilever platform for attaching a camouflage blind assembly to a camera. The camera may be secured to the platform, while the blind assembly may be attached to the base. The base may be mounted atop a tripod or other support device, or may be held by the user. The camera mount allows the user to take images of wildlife without the wildlife seeing the user or the camera. This allows the user to approach the wildlife closer than would otherwise be possible, resulting in closer, clearer images.
