2 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic stand mount base comprises a plurality of locking members and the magnetic stand mount plate comprises a plurality of grooves that correspond to the plurality of locking members to further secure the magnetic stand mount plate to the magnetic stand mount base.
3 . The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the plurality of locking members comprise L-shaped locking members and the plurality of grooves comprise L-shaped grooves.
4 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic stand mount base comprises an alignment ring that corresponds to an alignment ring of the magnetic stand mount plate.
5 . The apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the alignment ring of the magnetic stand mount base comprises an embossed alignment ring and the alignment ring of the magnetic stand mount plate comprises an engraved alignment ring.
6 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the securing member comprises a spring-loaded member that is inserted into a corresponding slot on the magnetic stand mount base.
7 . The apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the securing member is depressed and locked into the release to free the securing member from the slot on the magnetic stand mount base.
8 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first at least one magnet comprises at least one center ring-style magnet.
9 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the first at least one magnet comprises an array of a plurality of magnets.
10 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second at least one magnet comprises at least one center ring-style magnet.
11 . The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the second at least one magnet comprises an array of a plurality of magnets.
12 . A system comprising:
a magnetic stand mount plate comprising a first at least one magnet, the magnetic stand mount plate configured to be coupled to an object; and
a panhead comprising a second at least one magnet; and
wherein the magnetic stand mount plate is selectively coupled to the panhead by magnetic attraction between the first at least one magnet and the second at least one magnet to secure the object to the panhead, and
wherein the panhead comprises a protruding member that is configured to fit into a slot on the magnetic stand mount plate to secure the magnetic stand mount plate to the panhead, and wherein the protruding member is coupled to a release that is actuated to free the protruding member from the slot, and wherein the release further comprises a securing member that secures the release to the panhead.
13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the panhead comprises a plurality of locking members and the magnetic stand mount plate comprises a plurality of grooves that correspond to the plurality of locking members to further secure the magnetic stand mount plate to the panhead.
14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the plurality of locking members comprise L-shaped locking members and the plurality of grooves comprise L-shaped grooves.
15 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the panhead comprises an alignment ring that corresponds to an alignment ring of the magnetic stand mount plate.
16 . The system of claim 15 , wherein the alignment ring of the panhead comprises an embossed alignment ring and the alignment ring of the magnetic stand mount plate comprises an engraved alignment ring.
17 . A method, comprising:
providing a magnetic stand mount plate comprising a first at least one magnet, the magnetic stand mount plate configured to be coupled to an object;
providing a magnetic stand mount base comprising a second at least one magnet and configured to be coupled to a stand; and
coupling the magnetic stand mount plate to the magnetic stand mount base,
wherein the magnetic stand mount base comprises a protruding member that is configured to fit into a slot on the magnetic stand mount plate to secure the magnetic stand mount plate to the magnetic stand mount base, and wherein the protruding member is coupled to a release that is actuated to free the protruding member from the slot, and wherein the release further comprises a securing member that secures the release to the magnetic stand mount base.
