$1 D.I.Y. "tripod"
I saw this video and was simply impressed and felt I needed to share it. I haven't tried it, but it seems this could be easily adapted to the iPhone by using a hook sort of device (bent coat hanger?) instead of of a screw. Anyway, hope you find it useful... I'm definitely gonna try it!
Iphonian, you especially should appreciate this  This is especially important with the iPhone camera in low-light conditions, as the exposure time is very long without a flash. This should help a lot. Last edited by psylichon; 01-29-2008 at 06:38 AM.. |

For those viewing on the iPhone and unable to view the video:
1. Cut a piece of string the length from the ground to your eye. 2. Tie one end to a device to attach to your camera (in the video, it's a screw to go into the tripod attachment on all cameras. For the iPhone, I would use a hook of some sort to hang on the top of the phone) 3. Tie the other end to a washer. To use, step on the washer, attach the other end on your camera (phone), and take a picture with the added stabilization of the taught string. I love this idea. Not mine. But enjoy.

Well I consider myself to have a pretty steady hand, but I always get better results when braced against something. Maybe I'm just anal.
