Cheap Overhead Camera Setup

This point and shoot camera is 4k, super sharp, great auto focus, and lightweight.

If you don't want to worry about battery life on your camera, so it's always ready to film.

Only grab this if you're using a camera. I've heavily tested this specific card.

This lets you see your shot as you're doing it with your phone. It's pretty epic.

I love this option because there's no fuss when mounting your phone to this whole setup.

You may not need this right away. But you may want it once you fill up your phone and want to save your footage.

This is the bread and butter - how you mount your camera to the stand.

You only need this if you're using the mic that's always ready and on your stand.

This mic works with cameras and phones and you have to keep it charged.

This light is still great, just less than have the wattage for not that much less. But more budget friendly.

This will be more versatile since it's small, powerful, and you can use this in other scenarios and long into the future.

You definitely don't want your stand tipping over. Trust me, pick this up.

You may be able to get away without using this. So if you need to lower your budget skip this and come back for it later if you need it.

You need this to attach the light to the stand. It's the easiest way.

This is what you want if you're looking for a super budget solution to use every couple of months.

This light stand is perfect for this build. And it has wheels to easily move around.
