21 foot Portable Handheld System - All Elevated Photography system components can be sold separately

When it came to money making ideas within the realm of photography, we wanted something that was inexpensive, portable, innovative, practical, and easy to use. This led to the development of the Tepco Mini Pod.

This handheld telescoping pod raises the camera to 21 feet. The live integrated video down link keeps you in control of composition via a portable TV monitor that is mounted on the pod. You compose and shoot with your feet on the ground.

Twenty one feet may not seem very high, however, one does not need to be that high to gain an elevated perspective. To help you visualize this, think of shooting with the mini pod as if you were shooting from the roof of a two story building.
