TORONTO, Ontario, Dec. 6, 2011 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Take your own self-image underwater with the new rugged, waterproof handheld tripod, the Quik Pod® DSLR (www.quikpod.com/dslr.asp), and a GoPro, Contour or similar waterproof camera. From Fromm Works Inc., the all terrain Quik Pod DSLR extends to 53-inches and weighs only 9 ounces.
Up until now you can only film the action away from you using extreme cameras.
