Tripod


The tripod is one of the most commonly used pieces of camera equipment of all time. Tripods are commonly used to stabilize a camera and can be used when filming or taking still photographs. They are stable due to their three legged design which allows for a table but agile design, making them ideal for angling photos or ensuring that films or photographs are level due to the adjustable legs.
Tripods can be rigid but also bendable such as the GorrilaPod which allows cameras to be attached to high up objects such as trees. This is particularly useful as it enables time-lapses in unusual places, allowing for a different artistic style. Tripods can also be attached to roller or runners on a film set which allow for fast but steady camera movement for chase sequence.

I use a tripod when I am taking photos and it is one of the most essential pieces of equipment that I use when taking photos. I don't leave my house with the intention of taking photos without it.
