String Tripod

Pretty clever! Made one myself and it works better than expected. I even went as far as making one that I can clip on to 2 front belt hoops as opposed to standing on it. You'll see what I mean after you check out the link.

It's really easy to use. I made one with 3 small carabiners & nylon rope that I clip to my belt hoops and to the camera. It's amazing how it works. I tried the one that you stand on and found it to bothersome. With the belt clips, I can unhook it from the camera and let it hang.

Oohh great. Then I should get goin' with the string tripod now. I think it's really handy and you could always carry wherever you go. Did you assemble that all by yourself? Hehe...
