Low Angle Tripods

Getting your camera low to the ground is essential in creating photos with small toy subjects.
In this video, I show you the 4 different kinds of low angle supports I've used in my LEGO photography and talk about what works and what doesn't.

Thank you for the suggestions. It can be really annoying trying to get low to the ground and stabilize your camera for photography. The Manfrotto Pocket will definitely come in handy for me. Thanks again!

Great info. Have just ordered myself the MP3-BK from Amazon UK.

Cool and useful! Thanks

Funny timing 😂 just commented on another video about what tripod you use and just saw this haha

Don’t forget you can make your own bean bags using Lego studs and they can go into a zip lock bag making them washable and multi purpose

[@FourBricksTall]

Plastic bags break easily so I don't recommend that on it's own for DIY. You could use whatever filler you want (including LEGO studs) but a cloth cover bean bag is harder to tear and is less slippery.

@@FourBricksTall i have a large tube sock filled with clean filtered sand in the back of the car. i don't put it in my camera bag.

i envy you your articulating screen on the back of the camera. after 20 years of getting down in the dirt and hot rocks of the mojave desert shooting scientific images of wildflowers, i am no longer able to lay or sit down on the ground. getting old sucks. photography kills your back and hips!
