PW193 - Giottos Silk Road Series Tripods

Why has nobody thought of this before? Giottos have just brought out a really neat new range of tripods called "Silk Road Series" that have a Y-shaped centre column. This reduces the size while folded down and increases the likelihood that you'll actually carry the thing with you. Simple but extremely effective.

PW190 - Joby UltraFit Sling Strap

Joby have previously brought us the neato Gorillapod tripods and now they've introduced a novel take on the glide strap. Their UltraFit Sling Strap holds the camera close to the body so that it doesn't swing around when not in use while still allowing the strap to loosen when you need to take a shot. Check out the video above for a demo.
