MojoBob Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I had a spare Beike tripod head* hanging around, so I whipped up this little wooden base for it and put my old Lumix bridge camera on it. It's a lot less adjustable and flexible than a proper tripod, but for copy work or the like, it's actually a lot more convenient. The Lumix is a decent camera of its type, with a nice Leica lens of reasonable speed and quite a wide zoom range, but it only uses a motorized zoom, and it doesn't take interchangeable lenses. It'll do auto-bracketing, which can be very handy for miniatures photography. I was actually trying to sell it a while ago, but got no interest at all, so I figured I might as well get some more use out of it. * I got the tripod head very cheaply from China, via AliExpress. From memory, it cost me about twenty KiwiBucks. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
