The Cuddeback 3488 Genius Pan Tilt Lock Mount transforms trail camera positioning with precision adjustability and theft-deterrent security. This professional-grade mounting system accommodates Cuddeback cameras and any trail camera equipped with a standard 1/4"-20 tripod socket.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic fixed mounts, the Genius Pan Tilt system provides 360-degree horizontal rotation and 180-degree vertical tilt adjustment with positive lock positions. The integrated security features include a lockable design that prevents unauthorized removal, while the brown powder-coated finish blends naturally with forest environments. Steel construction handles weather extremes and potential tampering attempts that defeat plastic alternatives.
Key Features
- 360-degree pan and 180-degree tilt adjustment for precise camera positioning
- Lockable security system prevents theft and unauthorized access
- Universal 1/4"-20 threaded socket fits all standard trail cameras
- Weather-resistant brown powder coating resists rust and UV damage
- Heavy-duty steel construction withstands impacts and harsh conditions
- Low-profile design minimizes detection by wildlife and humans
- Tool-free adjustment system enables quick repositioning in the field
Field performance centers on the mount's ability to maintain camera position through temperature swings, wind, and wildlife encounters. The locking mechanism secures both the pan and tilt positions, preventing camera drift that compromises surveillance coverage. Hunters appreciate the silent adjustment capability that won't spook game during setup, while security applications benefit from the tamper-resistant construction.
