Kondor Blue Kofi Capture Cup Suction Mount and Camera Rigging Kits

The Kondor Blue Kofi Capture Cup Suction Mount is a 4.5-inch vacuum mounting system designed to secure cameras, monitors, lights, and production accessories to suitable surfaces. Available in Space Gray and Raven Black, with Single, Action, Hybrid, and Cine Kit configurations, it provides flexible mounting solutions for professional filmmaking and video production.

Developed in collaboration with filmmaker Kofi Yeboah, the Kofi Capture Cup supports creative camera positioning in locations where conventional tripods, stands, and mounting hardware are impractical. Its compact design makes it suitable for vehicle-mounted camera rigs, overhead product photography, studio lighting installations, and temporary camera placements. A precision-machined manual vacuum pump establishes suction against compatible surfaces, including clean glass, acrylic, and smooth metal. The integrated NATO rail provides a standardized connection for compatible mounting accessories, while spring-loaded safety stops help prevent connected equipment from accidentally sliding off the rail. The system operates without batteries or electrical power, making it suitable for mobile productions and extended shooting sessions.

Four kit configurations accommodate different production requirements, from a standalone suction mount to multi-point camera rigging assemblies. The Action Kit adds an adjustable mounting arm, while the Hybrid and Cine Kits provide multiple suction cups for more complex mounting arrangements. Each cup incorporates attachment points for secondary safety tethers, supporting professional rigging practices. The system is backed by Kondor Blue's lifetime warranty and integrates with compatible accessories from the company's Cine Magic Arm collection.

Key Features

Available Colors and Kit Configurations

The Kofi Capture Cup is available in eight combinations, with two color options and four kit configurations. All configurations use the same 4.5-inch suction cup design and manual vacuum mounting system.

Color Options

Single - Standalone Kofi Capture Cup

The Single configuration includes one Kofi Capture Cup with its integrated NATO mounting rail. It provides the foundation for building a custom camera mounting system using existing compatible rigging accessories.

This option is suitable for filmmakers who already own NATO clamps, articulating arms, or compatible mounting equipment. Its compact construction makes it useful for temporary camera placement, monitor mounting, and creative production setups requiring a single suction attachment point.

Action Kit - Single Suction Cup with Adjustable Mounting Arm

The Action Kit combines one Kofi Capture Cup with components for constructing an adjustable ball-head mounting arm. The included NATO clamp attaches to the cup's integrated rail, while the ball-head components allow connected equipment to be repositioned and secured.

This configuration is useful for positioning compact cameras, monitors, lights, and compatible accessories away from the suction cup surface. It provides greater mounting flexibility than the standalone cup without requiring a second suction attachment point.

Hybrid Kit - Dual Suction Cup Camera Mounting System

The Hybrid Kit expands the system with two Kofi Capture Cups and two sets of adjustable mounting components. This arrangement provides separate suction mounting points for camera equipment and accessories.

Designed for more involved production setups, the Hybrid Kit is suitable for vehicle-mounted camera systems, multiple accessory placements, and custom support arrangements. Each suction cup features its own manual vacuum pump, integrated NATO rail, and safety attachment points.

The included ball heads, center clamps, and NATO mounting components allow filmmakers to construct two adjustable mounting arms. Additional rigging components may be required for specific camera configurations.

Cine Kit - Three-Cup Professional Camera Rigging System

The Cine Kit provides the most extensive configuration in the Kofi Capture Cup lineup. It includes three vacuum suction mounts, multiple ball-head mounting components, four Cine Magic Arm center clamps, and a 6-inch double-ball-head extension bar.

Designed for complex camera mounting arrangements, the Cine Kit provides multiple attachment points for positioning cameras and production accessories. Its modular configuration supports creative rigging applications where additional mounting flexibility and adjustment are necessary.

The included extension bar allows users to create longer articulated mounting arrangements, while the three suction cups provide independent mounting locations. This configuration is suitable for professionally planned vehicle rigs, multi-point support systems, and specialized production environments.

Precision Vacuum Mounting Technology

Manual Vacuum Pump

The Kofi Capture Cup uses a precision-machined pump to create suction between the mounting base and a compatible surface. The manual pumping mechanism eliminates the need for electrical power, allowing operation in environments where charging or external power connections would be inconvenient.

The vacuum mounting system is designed for use on suitable flat surfaces, including smooth metal, glass, and acrylic. Proper surface preparation is essential for maintaining a secure attachment.

Before mounting equipment, clean and inspect the mounting surface, establish suction according to the manufacturer's instructions, and confirm that the attachment remains secure.

Integrated NATO Rail with Safety Stops

Each cup incorporates a NATO mounting rail that supports compatible quick-release clamps and articulating arm accessories. This standardized interface allows filmmakers to change mounting configurations without replacing the suction cup assembly.

Spring-loaded safety stops provide an additional mechanical safeguard against unintended accessory removal from the NATO rail.

Secondary Safety Cable Attachment

Integrated safety loops provide attachment locations for secondary safety cables or tethers. These connections are particularly important when mounting equipment overhead, outside vehicles, or in other environments where unexpected detachment could cause injury or equipment damage.

Secondary safety retention should be selected according to the weight of the attached equipment and the requirements of the production environment.

Mounting Strength and Surface Compatibility

Kondor Blue publishes suction-strength figures for different mounting surfaces and orientations. The manufacturer's reported values vary depending on whether the cup is mounted vertically or overhead and whether the attachment surface is painted drywall or smooth glass and metal.

These suction-strength figures describe mounting performance under specified conditions and should not be interpreted as universal camera payload ratings. For equipment mounting, Kondor Blue separately identifies an 11 lb load rating on clean, smooth surfaces.

Surface condition, mounting angle, vibration, temperature, and environmental conditions can affect suction performance. Always test the completed mounting configuration and use appropriately rated secondary safety restraints, especially when operating around moving vehicles or suspended equipment.

Professional Filmmaking Applications

Vehicle Camera Rigging

The Kofi Capture Cup can be incorporated into vehicle camera mounting systems using suitable smooth body panels or glass surfaces. Its low-profile suction base and NATO accessory interface provide options for positioning cameras and supporting equipment around vehicles.

Vehicle installations require careful consideration of attachment surfaces, camera weight, motion forces, and redundant safety retention.

Overhead and Product Photography

For tabletop filming and product demonstrations, the suction mounting system can support camera positioning on suitable surfaces when conventional tripods or support stands would interfere with the shooting area.

Compatible articulating arms allow users to adjust the position and orientation of mounted accessories for close-up photography and product video production.

Studio Lighting and Monitor Mounting

The Capture Cup also supports compatible lighting and monitoring accessories. Filmmakers can position compact production equipment on suitable surfaces without permanently attaching mounting hardware to the location.

The Action, Hybrid, and Cine Kits provide additional components for creating adjustable accessory mounting arrangements.
