Long lens cameras and
compacts both need a quick, reliable system for supporting them e.g. photographing
scenes of activity where there is not much time to assemble a traditional tripod
(nature, riots, sports etc) or where a tripod is too cumbersome e.g. Safaris or Hillwalking. At approximately 50 grammes it is an ultra-lightweight alternative. It's light enough to take onto the plane for that Safari trip! A Beanpod is
a cushioned bag shaped to support a long lens or compact camera on, for example,
a wall, post, car roof or window sill - with no set-up time and maximum ease
of use. Now vertical surfaces can offer instant support.
How
does a Beanpod work ?
Like a beanbag -
it just slips under the camera or long lens to provide instant stability, an
instant level surface and protection from scratching. You'll get a reduction
in both vibrations and wind forces and it can be used a lot closer to the ground
than a conventional tripod. It enables longer shutter times through the lateral stability that it provides.It's portable and lightweight, being generously filled with cotton; ideal for putting in a pocket between locations. It's UNIQUELY OVAL in shape, this being the optimum for support, and is
approximately 8 inches by 5 inches and 2 inches thick.
What
is a Beanpod made of ?
The finest durable
and wipeable materials for long life and perfect results. Cotton filling ensures
optimum shaping around the lens.
How
much is a Beanpod ?
The fully inclusive
price for a single Beanpod is GBP 9.99 (BRITISH POUNDS) or approximately 11 EUROS including postage to
within the UK and VAT. Postage varies to other parts of the world.
payments can also be accepted, sent to WoodsM_UK@Yahoo.co.uk,
