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.

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.
