More “Arm” When Taking Photos – (Good for Short People)
By jason - up to 2007 (archived) • Apr 18th, 2007 • Category: News for Creatives (archives)“Good arm’s-length picture-taking requires longer arms — or a Quik Pod. A telescoping wand with a camera mount at one end, the Quik Pod adds about 18 inches to your reach and carries a diminutive curved mirror showing you roughly what the camera will see.
The Quik Pod Pro ($24.95) weighs less than a quarter-pound, collapses to a pocket-size 7 1/2 inches and comes with pocket and belt-loop clips and a carrying bag. The Quik Pod Pro Plus ($29.95) adds legs that turn it into a small tabletop tripod. Both are available from www.quikpod.com and many camera dealers.
The Quik Pod can also be used for shooting over the heads of crowds or shooting in awkward places, like under a car. Its light construction limits it to cameras or camcorders weighing a pound or less, the kind most people take on vacation. “
