Makes photo taking easier when you can?t use a tripod or don?t have one with you

Should be in your camera bag

Perfect piece of kit for your camera bag when you can?t use a regular tripod.

Makes photo taking easier when not having a tripod

Great piece of kit for getting down low, without making a mess on the bottom of camera or filling the tripod 'mounting threads' with debris.

GREAT PIECE OF KIT

Amazing bundle with top quality gear. A must for any type of photography. Lights are great with 3 light settings. Goose necks are perfect with great flexibility. Platypod is versatile and gives great angles and can hold small to large cameras.

Platypod Max Bundle

Platypod accessories.

If there was a case for this in which I could store it with the screws attached I would have rated it a 5.  At least the screws are stored on the unit.  Even with a Nikon P1000, it was stable.  I wish they included the acorn nuts to place over the the spikes when the rubber feet are used.  In the future I hope they or a third party would sell a belt/shoulder pouch in which the screws can remain attached with a padded pocket or divider for a ball head and a zippered pocket.

OK with some wishes

This is an awesome piece of equipment to add to your photo bag!. I mounted my ballhead onto the platypod max and it held my Nikon D850 with Nikkor 200-500 attached. If it can hold that, it will hold anything. Just buy it, you won't regret it. I am thinking of also getting the smaller one that fits in your pocket.

Just BUY IT now!!

I love the max platypod!!! I hook it onto the Sid eof my camera bag and take it everywhere. I love the perspective of low shots and also usually places like the top railing of a dock! the played works perfectly and the weight supports my Nikon 810 and my lenses all of them! 

I highly receomend.

always using it

Just what I need for my Kenya Safari! Light weight, small size, & provides a very stable platform for 
photography! I highly recommend this for every photographer!

What every photographer needs!

This is the one you need for a dslr and any lens combo. Wide base make it very stable to use for long exposure, or any other reason you need to set your camera down. The wide base doesn’t make it as concealable as the ultra, but the piece of mind is worth it. Still fits in a camera bag without taking up space!

Big, yet practical

I bought this mostly for macro work to hold my lighting and it works great. I also bring it with me to places where traditional tripods are not allowed in order to give my camera a bit more stability than hand-holding. Genius little device.

Portable "tripod"

Excellent add on to platypod which I use in Smoky Mountains and for some street shots.  Easy to carry around.  Beats lugging a tripod when hiking

Excellent add on

Great tool for hiking in Smoky Mountains where I don't want to lug around a tripod

Great

This is easy to use and great for low angle shots that I can't get with my tripod when I need a slow shutter speed.

Nice piece of equipment

If you ever find yourself putting the camera on the ground for that one really low shot or trying to hold your camera against a pole or tree and you need buddy pod match if you ever find yourself putting the camera on the ground for that one really low shot or trying to hold your camera against a tree or a pole... then YOU NEED PLATYPOD MAX. I recommend the Accessories Kit also for added flexibility.

Going Down.... First Floor... Awesome Shots

this is one of the best things I have ever purchased for my photography

Love this

I shoot video for a ton of outdoor weddings, and I've been trying to find a way of mounting my 'C' camera, so that it's out of clear view, but high enough to shoot over the guests when they all stand for the Bride. I've been looking at the Platypod for a while, wasn't sure, but then had a 'eureka' moment! The Plat, and its spiked feet, doesn't necessarily have to be used horizontally, and, with a little outside-the-box thinking, plus a trip to the hardware store, I now have EXACTLY what I needed all along, and the Platypod (plus its nifty, solid ballhead) are INVALUABLE!

INVALUABLE...I LOVE THIS!

Vestatile

Great for down low perspective and ability to put almost anywhere. Wish I had on last trip.

Lightweight and versatile

Paired with an appropriate ball head, this Platypod Max is perfect... I can carry it in my travel camera bag along with my a7riii and two lenses. Great for table top, ledges, even strapping to a pole or tree. I am very happy with my purchase (I also have a smaller Platypod for my a6500)

Perfect for Travel

Amazingly small and Light, with super functionality. Low to the ground and very stable. Would recommend to anyone looking for a stable platform 4 product photography such as cars or airplanes, or landscapes.

Amazingly small and light with super functionality

Such a great useful device when getting low. It really helps you get creative with your composition! I use this with a Benro head and it manages to keep my camera body and lenses balanced pretty well!

This Platypod rocks!

Fantastic

Very impressive piece of hardware.  Enables low angle photos and much much more.

Another great tool

Versatile, simple to set up and use and takes up very little space in a camera bag. A good solid platform on which to mount a camera.

Light Weight and easy to use.

I have not regrets in ordering the Pro Max.  At first I was worried that it wouldn't have the quality to match the price, but it actually exceeds my expectations.  The packaging itself tells you that Platypod wants to give photographers quality equipment.  The Pro Max will outlive me and my camera!  I am free now to walk urban streets and climb nearby hills and mountains without lugging a tripod with me.  I can now do time lapse shots spontaneously by strapping the Pro Max to a tree or sign post, or even a railing.  I am so pumped up about returning to locations I've shot before because I can go lower, higher or shoot at a tricky angle I couldn't attempt with a tripod or by hand.  My back is happy I bought the plate!

Everything abut the Pro Max is quality and my composition ideas are multiplied!  I'm going to buy one for all my kids who are photographers this Christmas.

One Item that Provides Countless Opportunities

Well mad.  Perfect for the pro bodies.  Great for any surface.
