A self-tightening camera adjustment system comprising an action camera mount comprising, an attachment means 16 (e.g. clamp, jaws etc.) suitable for attaching a camera to an object (e.g. sail), a handle 8 configured to adjust the attachment means by rotating about an axis, a camera connector 18 interacting with the handle, a pressure insert 19 disposed at least partially within the handle and interacting with the camera connector (e.g. via splines, rough surface or grippy material, 2/7), and a base plate 20 attached to the handle (e.g. via screws) wherein the pressure insert is configured to apply pressure to the camera connector when the handle is rotated about the axis. The mount allows for simultaneous tightening of the attachment means and fixing the camera in a desired orientation with a single attachment means. The system may be designed as an auxiliary item to replace existing handles.
