At times when you want a steady shot or accessory to hold your digital camera, tripods are the reliable devices to make it happen. Apparently the MonsterPod is another one of these devices. Tripods are indispensable for taking long-exposure shots; however, they are relatively bulky to carry around and may require several minutes to set up and adjust before taking a picture.

The MonsterPod does not have telescopic legs, clamps, or straps that other standard tripods may use for set up. Instead, MonsterPod uses a patent pending viscoelastic morphing polymer, which can attach itself to a long list of materials, including, but not limited to, metal, wood, plastic, veneer, marble, Formica, cement, steel, brick, glass, tile, enamel, sheet rock, and topographic objects.

MonsterPod is an elastic solid in the form of a viscoelastic polymer, contained within a neoprene membrane. The Pod is said to be non-toxic to children and pets and also free from solvents and harmful chemicals. It is made from three main elements: a viscoelastic morphing polymer base, a neoprene outer membrane and an internal semi-ridged metal and plastic base, and has a retail price of $29.99.
