Learn how to prevent seeing the barrel in your ShotKam videos. Follow mounting recommendations based on your video format settings.
Gen 4 and Gen 4 Mini
If you are seeing the barrel in your ShotKam Gen 4 videos, this is because they are designed with a wider field-of-view in the default video format. Moving the ShotKam closer to the muzzle can resolve this issue. To prevent seeing the barrel in your videos, use the mounting recommendations below based on your video format settings. Ensure the ShotKam is mounted at least 3 inches (7 cm) from the muzzle to avoid debris landing on the lens:
- For 4K Video Format: keep the front lens within 5 inches (13 cm) of the gun muzzle.
- For 2.7K Video Format: Within 8 inches (20 cm) of the muzzle.
- For 1080p Format: Within 10 inches (26 cm) of the muzzle.
Moderator Mount
For Gen 4 and Gen 3 models, we now have a Moderator Mount that holds the ShotKam 35mm below the barrel (no barrel appearing in the video). This mount is not available for the Gen 4 Mini. To learn more about the Moderator Mount, please click here: Using ShotKam with Moderators or Silencers.
Gen 3
If you are seeing the barrel in your ShotKam Gen 3 videos, this is most likely caused when the ShotKam is mounted 10+ inches back from the muzzle. We recommend moving the ShotKam forward along the barrel to prevent the barrel from appearing in your videos. Once you move the ShotKam, be sure to realign the reticle.
