Monster Pod
How many travelers actually do bring their tripods with them? I can safely assume that only very few would. But I sure could imagine how useful it could be to have one. When travelling, there are times when we would like to be IN the picture. Or, if travelling in a group, we would ALL like to be IN the picture.
One option would be to ask a stranger to take the pic.
However, there is another interesting option which could, imo, prove to be very useful.
