Quik PodTM chosen as Top Travel Gadget by MSN Travel!
Buffalo 08/07/07- Quik Pod ™, the world’s first handheld extendable tripod for any compact camera is in the news this travel season placing number one on the MSN Travel list of top travel gadgets.
Quik Pod™ is the perfect travel gadget, enabling the photographer to be included in photos and videos without asking strangers to operate their camera. Retailing for $29.95, the compact and lightweight Quik Pod™ is designed for point and shoot cameras, camcorders and waterproof cameras. The Quik Pod™ converts from handheld use to tabletop in seconds for larger group photos.
Families and couples on vacation will appreciate this versatile tool for making picture taking and video shooting possible without asking anyone for assistance. Created by veteran Disney toy inventor Wayne Fromm the Quik Pod™ causes one to think “Why didn’t I think of that!” Fromm took years to create what he calls the “tripod for people who ordinarily would never use a tripod, an untripod!”
The Quik Pod™ is sturdy, weighs less than 3.5 ounces, and comes with a built in self-positioning mirror to center each shot. Fully extended, Quik Pod™ can be used for self-portraits, to shoot over crowds, around corners and for low angle shots.
The Quik Pod Pro+™ includes a lightweight tripod leg adapter.
Quik Pod™ can be purchased at www.quikpod.com ., Amazon.com, Adorama, B&H, Calumet Photographic, Magellan’s and Hammacher-Schlemmer. In Canada, it is available at Blacks Photography, Henry’s and The Shopping Channel. Internationally Quik Pod™ can be purchased at www.iwantoneofthose.com
