serves the needs of photographers and photo journalists worldwide.
Monopod Reinvented By Fromm Works

TORONTO, NEW YORK (RUSHPRNEWS) November 28, 2007- Attach your camera
or camcorder to the quick release camera mount and extend the
sectional rods to touch the ground for support. The Quik Pod(R) DSLR is
unlike tripods or monopods in that the foot that touches the ground
is also a grip handle. This innovation provides a better center of
gravity to avoid camera shake and provides a handle for extended reach
when shooting over crowds or self-portraits. The extremely compact
and portable Quik Pod(R) DSLR weighs only 9 ounces.


The Quik Pod(R), voted one of the favorite, perfect travel gadgets by
MSN, has a proprietary built-in wide-angle mirror for self-portraits
enabling the traveling photographer to be included in photos and
videos without asking strangers to operate their camera. Simply set
the camera self-timer, aim and smile.


The Quik Pod(R) DSLR is designed for DSLR cameras and camcorders up to 2
lbs. in weight. The Quik Pod(R) DSLR converts from monopod to handheld
in seconds and extends the reach by more than 4 feet.

Families and people on vacation will appreciate this versatile tool
for taking better pictures and videos. Inventor Wayne Fromm took
years to create what he calls "fun and practical tripods and monopods
for all level of photographers."


The Quik Pod(R) DSLR can also be used to hold lighting apparatus. The
Quik Pod(R) DSLR includes a carry bag, hiking clip, wrist strap,
aluminum end cap, rubberized monopod adapter tip, belly pad and quick
release camera mount. Attaches to all cameras using a standard tripod
socket.

Quik Pod(R) Pro+ and Quik Pod(R) DSLR can be purchased online at www.quikpod.com.
Dealers include Amazon.com, J&R, Adorama, B&H, Calumet Photographic,
QVC, Magellan's and Hammacher-Schlemmer. In Canada, it is available at
Blacks Photography, Henry's and The Shopping Channel. Published U.S.
Patents 20060257137 and 20060257138.

Downloadable photos and spec sheets are available at: http://www.quikpod.com/Press.asp
Review units are available upon request.

How is that different from the Xshot?

First of all, Wayne Fromm is the inventor and Xshot STOLE the idea.
There is litigation going on around this very subject at this
moment... and the Xshot does not have all the capabilities, strength
and feature that Quik Pod(R) DSLR handheld camera system offers. Read
the product spec...
Best
