A tripods is a solid, stable accessory in the photography world, one that very rarely sees significant change, but the new line of Splat flexible tripods from miggo have redefined the tripod in an innovative way. The Splat is more like a flexible support designed to take a number of shapes in order to suit the needs of the photographer and the situation. Need to wrap it around a tree? Done. How about bicycle handlebars? Done. Your wrist? Done. The Splat’s one-piece bendable body allows for quick and easy alterations to fit a variety of surfaces on the fly.
Each one of the three Splat models is constructed of a flexible metal core and coated with non-slip silicon, which wraps lightly and prevents unwanted movement. Each model is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry in a bag along with your favorite camera and accessories. There are currently three versions available: the Splat SLR for DSLR users with gear weighing up to a maximum of 2.6 lb; the Splat CSC for mirrorless camera users with cameras up to 1.1 lb; and a Splat GOP, designed specifically for the ever popular GoPro action cameras. It’s important to note that no matter which model you choose, miggo’s forward-thinking design team have used a 1/4"-20 mounting thread on each model—even the Splat GOP, ensuring compatibility with future camera models and mounting accessories.
Photographers who enjoy traveling light and shooting in all types of weather will love shooting with their black-blue Agua Stormproof Holster from miggo. Holsters come in small-25 for mirrorless cameras, medium-35, and large-45 for DSLRs. All about protection, they guard against dirt, dust, and moderate impact and boast an IPX3 rainproof rating. Features include dual zipper pulls; an interior, slip-in, stretchable lens cap pocket; and quick-release locking strap buckles. The bottom of each holster has a thermo-formed rigid exterior with a soft interior for protecting your lens from impact and scratches. Tapered toward the bottom, holsters are designed to conform to the shape of your lenses.
To use the holster, simply attach the camera-connecting cords to your camera strap lugs. On each cord is a quick-release buckle for attaching the padded shoulder strap. For speed and safety during storage and use, the holster remains attached to the camera connecting cords. To adjust the length of the strap, simply pull on the D-rings located one at each side. The holster may be carried easily without the shoulder strap by connecting the quick-release buckles together to form a handle. For strength and durability, your Agua holster is made of neoprene, tarpaulin, Lycra, and plastic. Rather than running for cover at the first sign of a perfect storm, run for your miggo, and take perfect photos instead.
Thanks to the Universal Padded Camera Speed Straps from miggo, photographers can quickly switch between wearing the strap as a sling across the chest or straight down from the neck or shoulder. To accommodate righties and lefties, the 59" strap length easily adjusts with one hand by pulling on the right or left D-ring located just below the neck. In sling mode, most photographers will elect to attach the strap to the base of the camera with the included nickel-coated ¼"-20 tripod mounting screw and two quick-release connectors.
A second option is to use the connectors with the camera-strap lugs. It’s a matter of personal preference, with the goals of comfort and speed first and foremost. For comfort, Speed Straps have wide neck pads made of neoprene covered in soft Lycra. While good looks aren’t everything, handsome Speed Straps come in black, Space Zoo, Pebble Road, and in widths of 2.3 and 1.1". When you feel the need for Speed, miggo’s got your strap.
