How I carry my Pedco UltraPod lightweight tripod for backpacking.m2ts

How I carry my Pedco UltraPod lightweight tripod for backpacking.m2ts Tube. Duration : 2.92 Mins.


At 1.7 ounces, this is a neat little tripod. Very versatile and well worth carrying along. Includes a Velcro strap to secure the tripod to trees, limbs, railings, etc. The tripod works well with point & shoot cameras. I don't think it's robust enough for SLR or even some Hybrid cameras. If you need a larger tripod, look at the Pedco UltraPod II (4 oz) To see this unit in use: www.youtube.com I failed to show the detail of the Velcro wire tie I use to hold the StickPic in place. These ties have a slotted end and a tag end. When you stick the tag end through the slotted end you can pull the wire tie up tight so it will be fastened in place, leaving a long tag end that stays in place when it's undone. The Velcro wire tie was looped through the cordage loop and then fastened to the trekking pole, leaving the long tag end free to hold the StickPic. Now when you unfasten the tag end to remove the StickPic, the wire tie is still fastened to the trekking pole so it doesn't get lost.
