$1 Image Stabilizer for Any Camera

Saw this over on Metacafe, it’s a very cool trick using:

  • A 1/4″ bolt that will screw into the bottom of your camera
  • About 6′ or so (depending on your height) of nylon string or another relatively stiff string
  • A large washer

You basically screw the bolt into the bottom of your camera, tie the string between the bolt and the washer, and stand on the washer… then you pull up to create tension when you frame your shot, naturally stabilizing the shake in your image.
