Tripod for pictures from the worm’s eye view(Photography)

           Changing the perspective can transform uninteresting objects into interesting subjects for photography. This is the reason you want to take more snaps from the worm’s eye view with your amateur DSLR camera. But your tripod cannot be adjusted low enough.

           You can use simple tools such as a sack the size of your palm filled with beans. The camera can be put up on that and can be adjusted reasonably well. But obviously, the more professional solution would be a special tripod, but that’s too heavy on your pocket.
            A good compromise is the Cullmann Nanomax 250. The stable camera stand offers two leg angle settings; one for normal use, and one for close-to-ground positions. It makes it possible to take snaps from a deep angle. For repro and close-up photos, you can turn the central pillar of the Nanomax tripod and clamp it from below. The fi xed head can accommodate cameras of up to 3 kg, so there is enough reserve weight if you are using your amateur DSLR with lens, which can be fi tted on the tripod head using a quick-change plate in no time.
            Since the Cullmann stand is not as stable as professional tripods, you should, as far as possible, take a snap with the self timer or remote control release after aligning the camera to the subject. This prevents the camera from shaking. You will get extremely sharp photos if you also activate the mirror lockup feature in the camera. The shutter then opens with a delay, so that the body vibrations die away due to the tipping up of the mirror.
