SANDMARC Active Mount – Magnetic Aluminum iPhone Mount | Specs & Price

Written by Kate Large | Jan 15, 2026 3:00:44 PM
 

SANDMARC has launched the Active Mount, a magnet-based aluminum iPhone mount designed to turn everyday metal surfaces into stable shooting positions.

 
SANDMARC's new Active Mount is one of those simple ideas that can actually save you an awful lot of stress: a magnet-enabled mount that transforms everyday metal surfaces into reliable shooting positions.
 
 

Industrial Aluminum Build

Precision-machined from full aluminum, the Active Mount is built for secure attachment. This industrial construction ensures consistent framing without flex, drift, or misalignment, even in dynamic shooting environments from gyms and studios to kitchens, cars, and outdoor locations. Pretty much it allows you to turn everyday spaces into intentional shooting setups.
 
It features a built-in cold shoe on top, allowing users to attach microphones, lights, or wireless receivers. A standard 1/4-20 thread on the bottom integrates seamlessly with tripods, arms, or rigging systems when additional height or control is needed.
