Carl uses one of those fancy Kodak cameras.

you know the ones i am talking about, they have the built in flash, fancy cardboard body, and you can get them on the shelf next to the cash register in the corner liquor store for $1.99.

Those can be duct taped onto a tripod.

You're lucky.

My instructions are on a DVD.

Now that you found your tripod, you can use it the next time you shoot fireworks, or anything that requires the use of a tripod.

I carry a tripod in my shirt pocket, along with my digi-camera.

It looked like a series of pictures showing what a Honda Hybrid looks like attempting to go 120 miles an hour...

Carl, I do better with a Mono-pod... the tripods are so easily tipped over.

Mono-pod extends to 5 ft and only one leg to contend with.

I have a baby tripod and a baby mono-pod as well for certain shots.

If you let go of a monopod, won't it fall?

I have both, a lightweight tripod, and Bogen Manfrotto monopod, that I found.

I like the monopod, because it's quick for shots.
