Unlock your creativity
with the MantisPod Pro Tabletop Vlogging Tripod from PGYTECH.
Combining a 360° mount, adjustable ball head, dovetail cold shoe mount, and
various tripod leg configurations, this convertible tripod can quickly
transform to give you seven different shooting mode options. This kind of
versatility is ideal for recording vlogs or livestreaming, giving you standard
and innovative camera angle options. The MantisPod Pro can be used with a
smartphone via the holder built into one of the tripod legs, or a digital
camera via the 1/4" SnapLock plate.
7 Shooting Modes
By utilizing multiple
features of the MantisPod Pro together, a total of 7 different shooting modes
are possible. In addition to vlogging and livestreaming, these modes can help
you with taking portraits, taking time-lapse photos, conducting video chat
interviews, and much more.
·
Elevated Tripod Mode: A standard 3-leg tabletop tripod setup with your device in
landscape orientation.
·
Vertical Shooting Mode: Keeps the standard 3-leg setup, but switches device orientation
to vertical
·
Lowered View Mode: Lowers the 3-leg tabletop option so the tripod is nearly flat
for low angles.
·
Mantis Mode:
Like the hooked legs of a praying mantis, a short hook extends from one tripod
leg, letting you hang the tripod from fences, railings, glass partitions, and
more. NOTE: Surfaces should be no more than 3.5" thick and the other 2
legs must be set against surfaces for stability.
·
Handheld Mode:
Squeeze the legs together for this mode that lets you more easily shoot on the
move. It can quickly convert to Elevated Tripod mode without altering device
orientation.
·
Extended Mode:
For a longer reach, extend one leg out 140° for additional length when holding
the tripod like a selfie stick. This mode is for use with a camera on a
SnapLock plate anchored to the dovetail cold shoe on the leg.
·
Mobile Vlogging Mode: With the same extension as Extended Mode, but with the mobile
phone holder attached to the dovetail cold shoe instead of the camera plate.
SnapLock System
PGYTECH's SnapLock
System accommodates both the SnapLock camera plate and built-in phone holder.
Simply insert either into the tripod adapter's SnapLock mount and it will
securely click into place. A push of a button on the adapter lets you quickly
release the plate or phone holder. When using the SnapLock plate, a tight-fitting
screw uses a thrust needle roller bearing to reduce friction. This means that
when you're rotating the camera for different angles, the friction of the
rotation will not cause the plate to become unscrewed from the camera.
