Camera pod

This is simply not working for me. I was hoping to solve a problem with this pillow-like pod. The problem appears actually on a regular base when I go out for taking pictures without a Tripod and try to place my Cam on a not plane ground. It just simply doesn’t work, which is very annoying. Since I couldn’t find any affordable and small Tripod (Manfrotto offers a basic one for “just” 500NOK ahem) I thought giving this one a try. And it wasn’t more than a try. So nice this idea might be, the practical realization is not so good. The problem is actually that the position of the camera always tends backwards into the horizontal position, once you’ve changed that one to compensate any fall. So I brought i back immediately and bought something else…
