Original Prusa i3 MK2 Camera Mount

thingiverse

I wanted a camera mount that would travel with the print bed on my MK2. I used 1/4" anodized aluminum bars to ensure the mount would remain rigid when moving. I was concerned about the additional weight on the print bed but I can say that I run prints at usually around 150% speed and have had no change in print quality or added artifacts, and the video's that are rendered by OctoPrint are steady as can be. You'll also need to pick up some basic Go Pro screws and nuts for a couple bucks on Amazon. This was used with a new Logitech C615 camera, but I have to say that when I lower the angle or using one of the corner mounts, it sometimes has issues with the autofocus. If I am at a higher angle, it will hold focus throughout most prints.
