Tripods
-
Photo and video gear company Edelkrone teased its "biggest launch in years" in October last year, and has now revealed all with the release of the "world's first" fully motorized, self-leveling tripod called the X.
-
From time to time, many photographers have use for standard and mini tripods along with a monopod and a handheld smartphone-stabilizing rig. The Chronicle Tripod combines all four in one modular, adaptable device.
-
Remember when tripods were just gadgets that kept your camera still? One of the latest to go a lot further than that is Tokqi's CO3 Octopus … and no, despite its name, it doesn't have eight legs.
-
Mini tripods certainly are handy photographic gadgets, but they could always be made even handier. A case in point is the new Hookpod Pro, which features a magnetic leg that allows for a variety of mounting options.
-
While serious photographers use a DSLR for most of their shots, smartphones are still handy for easily posting photos and videos. That's where a new "smart plate" comes in, as it lets users quickly mount either device on a tripod.
-
Tripods are handy (even essential) for taking certain types of photos, but they can be a hassle to tote around. That's why the Conda strap was invented, as it's a flexible camera-carrying strap that stiffens to act as a "tripod" of sorts.
-
Best known for its well-designed camera bags and the ingenious Capture Clip mount system, Peak Design has stepped up to tick one more thing off the wishlists of many a traveling photographer. A truly compact, lightweight, stable tripod that’s quick to deploy yet gutsy enough for serious work.
-
The Slypod is an odd little filmmaking tool that works with Moza's camera gimbals to add controlled, steady movement to your shots. Weighing in at just 750 g (1.65 lb), it can form part of a monopod setup or click onto a tripod.
-
Gudsen Moza has released a couple of new filmmaking tools at NAB 2019, including the interesting Slypod, which is effectively a motorized monopod that you can use as a precisely controlled camera slider. There's also a new AirCross 2 gimbal sized for mirrorless cameras.
-
There's no denying that tripods are an effective means of steadying your shot when taking photos, but the things can be a hassle to carry around, and to set up. German father-and-son team Gert and Tobias Wagner have created a lightweight wearable alternative, in the form of Steadify.
-
Joby has launched a new tripod mount for tablets. The GripTight GorillaPod Stand Pro for Tablet lets you position your slate whether shooting photos and videos, or bingeing on Netflix. We recently spent a bit of time with one ahead of its release, to try it out.
-
Although tripods are an essential photography tool, the things can be a bit of a hassle. That's why edelkrone has introduced the simpler StandPLUS, which the company emphasizes is not a tripod.
