The Quik Pod® DSLR handheld camera system from Fromm Works Inc. serves the needs of amateur photographers and photo journalists worldwide.

 
TORONTO, NEW YORK (RUSHPRNEWS) November 28, 2007- Attach your camera or camcorder to the quick release camera mount and extend the sectional rods to touch the ground for support.  The Quik Pod® DSLR is unlike tripods or  monopods in that the foot that touches the ground is also a grip handle.  This innovation provides a better center of gravity to avoid camera shake and provides a handle for extended reach when shooting over crowds or self-portraits.  The extremely compact and portable Quik Pod® DSLR weighs only 9 ounces.

The Quik Pod®, voted one of the favorite, perfect travel gadgets by MSN, has a proprietary built-in wide-angle mirror for self-portraits enabling the traveling photographer to be included in photos and videos without asking strangers to operate their camera.  Simply set the camera self-timer, aim and smile.

The Quik Pod® DSLR is designed for DSLR cameras and camcorders up to 2 lbs. in weight.  The Quik Pod® DSLR converts from monopod to handheld in seconds and extends the reach by more than 4 feet.

Families and people on vacation will appreciate this versatile tool for taking better pictures and videos.   Inventor Wayne Fromm took years to create what he calls “fun and practical tripods and monopods for all level of photographers.”

The Quik Pod® DSLR can also be used to hold lighting apparatus.  The Quik Pod® DSLR includes a carry bag, hiking clip, wrist strap, aluminum end cap, rubberized monopod adapter tip, belly pad and quick release camera mount.  Attaches to all cameras using a standard tripod socket.
