With the Spider Pod you can now easily shoot above crowds and capture unobstructed, stable images. Large staging risers are often used as a camera platform. However, as you shift your footing, the camera and tripod may shake, producing an unstable video image. Add multiple shooters, or use the camera zoomed in with a long focal length and the problem becomes significantly worse. The Spider Pod eliminates all this by featuring a separate tripod riser and separate standing platform – providing rock solid support.
