Does anybody have a good recommendation for camera mounts/arms to use in a tree stand. I would like to start filming while in the stand so I can film my kids in a couple years. To start I would be shooting with a d7200 with a 1.8 50mm and/or a 70-200 2.8 lens. I hunt out of a climber when going solo and two man ladder stands when the kids tag along. I have a tripod that I can use if blind hunting.

For the 70/200 lens a cheap camera arm isn't going to hold up. I've ran this one for the last 2 years and it's bomb proof. Ok, maybe that's an exaggeration, but it does survive being dropped 25 feet out of the tree in the dark!

I'm a big fan of the Fourth Arrow camera arms. For me, being able to leave bases in my usual treestand locations 1) lightens up what I carry on every hunt, 2) makes setup quieter, 3) adjustable to mount to just about any tree/limb/etc.
