Pesos & sense is a weekly feature about gadgets or applications that we feel are worth spending our own hard-earned money on. While we enjoy playing around with several new gadgets on a weekly basis, there are some that really catch our attention and we thought it would be good to point them out to our readers.

The lust goes on: after that new consumer digital camera, you'll want to spend a whee bit more for your high capacity memory card. It doesn't end there, for you'll start buying rechargeable batteries and eventually - a tripod!
Why would a cam whore want one of these? Well, unless your fingers are as brazened as a lab chemist, you'll eventually end up with blurry close-ups shots (ayiee!!) and hazy night shots (arrgh!!) at slow shutter speeds.
Besides, this tripod from Vivitar is cool. It was a birthday gift; found for only P133.00 in the AGFA store in Megamall beside the department store entrance. It's made of a strong but malleable alloy from the planet Krypton. When I'm bored, it becomes my toy: I mold it into the shapes of a squid, a sentry gun and the sentinel arms from The Matrix.

For P133.00, it is well worth the price: other table tripods cost P800.00 - P2,000.00. But the Pocket 35 has bendable feet so you can "mount and shoot" from several creative angles - not just straight. Stretched out, it doesn't "bend back" to its original shape which means that your camera lens will behave.
This model also has a clip you so can latch it onto your pocket when travelling.

Bendable (Tr)ipod mini!
OMG! I love the tripod especially the bendable option of the legs. Sometimes, it is hard to take a perfect shot.Iin my camera's screen (i use Pentax Optio 430S) some shots look okay; however, once I uploaded the pictures not all of it are good.
Question lang po: Is it available too in other stores as well? I'm kinda far away from Mega kasi eh. Thanks ^_^
i am not sure if it is available in other stores but i would surmise that it is. i don't get out much nowadays to check the malls.
the brand is vivitar.
you can also look for it in eBay if you want to buy it online. I saw it being sold for around $1.00 only.
