@@SmokeyEdits Is that what it is? He doesn't have a tripod?

[@SmokeyEdits]

@@neo-filthyfrank1347 I assume so. All it would take is a tripod to hold the camera while he does his thing, but as he might not have one, he has to hold the camera instead. I could be wrong and he just doesn't like using tripods, didn't have the proper space to set it up, or is just camera shy and didn't want to show the process. Who's to say? Fun to wonder nonetheless.
