I ordered this POD (bean bag tripod) from ThePod.ca and it arrived today. I couldn’t wait to give it a whirl. Basically its a hockey puck shaped bean bag with a universal tripod screw mount on top. It slides right into your pocket. You can put this just about anywhere, (top of a mailbox, fence post) to position your camera.
They make different sizes for different cameras. The yellow one is for small pocket sized cameras, but they have bigger ones (black) for even the paparazzi sized behemoths, and a bunch of sizes in between. The base is water resistant, and there is a velcro pouch so you can take out some of the beads to get a better “floppy grip” on whatever perch you found.
I have just started shooting some video (and now I can get into the act), and will have a demo collection soon, but I wanted to share some pics with you now. Check out ThePod.ca to see some more examples. All of the pods are on sale as of writing this. This is an awesome dad tool because now I can get back into the videos.
