It comes in two flavors. Aluminum alloy or carbon fiber. Even at the retail price, these come in my lower than their closest competition. Especially for the carbon fiber model.

  • quick release and locking for your camera
  • fast to setup
  • includes an adapter for your cell phone
  • and more.

Check out this video for for a preview of this new design.

I’ve already placed my kickstarter pledge for the Aluminum alloy version as I’m that budget kind of guy, but if you are looking for a carbon fiber tripod this one is a deal during the kickstarter.

Check out the kickstarter now as it won’t last long and prices usually go up towards the end. Below is a link to the kickstarter so you can make your pledge and get the full details on this new tripod.

Older Structures

On By Mark DoddIn Carroll County, General Blog PostLeave a comment

On the way to a camera club meeting this week I passed an old mill that I drive by all the time and I’ve been meaning to get a picture of. As I passed, I realized I was going to be early so I turned around and parked the car and set out to get my picture of this old mill.

I mention this as further down the road was an older home that again, I have driven by for years and always thought to myself, I need to stop and get a picture of that. I have no idea when this house was built, but it obviously was one of the earlier homes built in the area. It had a large overhanging roof porch that looked like it went all the way around the sides and front of the house. It would have made a great picture.

I say would as when I drove by after getting my pictures of the old mill I was sad to see that it had been knocked down and removed from the property.

It just reminded me, if there are older structures you have been wanting to get a picture of, get it now, don’t wait and say I’ll get that someday as when that someday comes, it might not be there.

Here is one of the photos of the mill that I was able to get that evening.

It does use an interface similar to Photolemur, but this is NOT Photolemur renamed, but an entirely new application that has been designed specifically for your drone. It will recognize what type of drone you have and apply the AI adjustments that are best for a photo from that drone.

Mill Creek Falls

On By Mark DoddIn York CountyLeave a comment

A Day long photo trip

A few Sunday’s ago I decided I was going to drag myself out of bed at the early hour of 5 AM so I could get a Sunrise Photo over the Chesapeake Bay. This turned out to be just the beginning of my day. After I sunrise was done I decided to see what else was around this neck of the woods. As I had driven over an hour to get to my sunrise location I figured, why not get other things while I’m this far from home in the surrounding area.

I’ve got more to come, but will start off with the last location of the day

The Falls of Mill Creek

These are near the Holtwood dam on the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania
