No prizes this time, I'm sorry. No cows, no other lifestock.


But I have consolation prizes again.




First the explanation: it's a chain camara stand. There are many varieties of them, as you have seen in the two very different pictures. The video shows yet another type of chain camera stand, a very practical one with a box where you can put the chain into.

Here's the video how to use it:

And here's another picture:




You stand with your foot on one end of the chain; the end with the screw goes into the camera, as many of you already thought. Then you tighten the chain - et voila, you can take picture with a longer shutter speed. It's not as firm as a tripod, but therefore small and easy to carry with you.

The chain camera stand from the second picture you can fix with your both feet, so you even got a more firm stand.

Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

Here are your consolation prizes:


Help yourself!
Take as many as you think you need ;D






Now you need only two more parts to build your own vibrating massage device. You already have the massage ball and you have the batteries.
The other two components will be the consolation prizes of my next two quizzes (yes, that's a threat ;) ;D).

Well well well! Isn't that nifty? Now that I think about it, it really is a good idea. If you step down on the chain and then continue to pull UP on the camera, it would make it more stable, wouldn't it?

Chrissi you TRICKED us! You KNEW none of us would ever think it was a camera stand! :laugh: ;) ;)

That was a really hard one Chrissi! Well done! :D
