I have been using the self-made lens support bracket for years. Actually everything works pretty well and it does strengthen the stability of my lens and tripod combination. However, once in a while I would want to rotate the lens and shoot vertically, so I decided to grab this toy when I find it on other photo forums and Youtube.
A friend of mine bought and shipped this to me from Taiwan about a year ago, and I just installed it over the long weekend. So here is the process:
1. The last peek of my beloved self-made lens bracket.
2. Closeup
3. New bracket system, included a low profile replacement lens foot.
4. Demounted the original bracket and lens foot.
5. Install the new lens foot.
6. Front bracket installed, the ring has three little wheels in it so it’s rotatable.
7. Rear bracket to hold the camera.
8. Camera mounting plate added.
9. Camera mounted.
10. That’s right, it’s rotatable.
Now I can’t wait to go out to give it a shot.
Tulum is an archaeological site, stands on a cliff facing east toward the Caribbean Sea with a beautiful beach. Tulum has been well developed as a modern tourist attraction along the Mexican Caribbean coastline, with the short distance from Cancún and Riviera Maya.
There are many interesting structures at the site. While I touring around Tulum, I was imaging what Mayan people were doing in this area 3,000 years ago.
Went to Galiano Island while my mom and my sister who visiting Vancouver this summer. We stayed at Raven’s Escape for 3 nights during the trip, which was wonderful.
Raven’s Escape is a two bedroom cottage on two levels, with a deck leading to a fenced lawn and garden area. A waterfront hot tub and sundeck are just a few steps from the cottage, allowing guests enjoy the sunset view while dipping in the hot tub with beers in hand (actually that was me).
* Look at the pictures I think I need to clean the camera’s sensor.
