DIY camera gadgets

[dr_zero]

I know Groucho has made some does anyone else have any they would like to share?

I found this one just on a fluke and it look pretty handy for those extra batteries

I made this flash diffuser. You get some funny looks when it's sitting on top of your camera, but it works great. Besides, if funny looks were an issue for me, I doubt I would be out there in my photo vest anyway.

I make all kinds of stuff.

I made my own camera harness, which turned out so well I now sell them.

I made a holster for my tabletop tripod to go on my utility belt (along with a home-made holster for my cell phone and a velcro setup for carrying a rolled Mickey poncho).

I made a shoulder strap for my full-size tripod.

I make a new camera poncho every time I go to WDW.

I have made the Better Bounce Card, as well.

In the past I've used the Sucrets box trick to keep my spare batteries, but since I only have two batts and one stays in teh camera all the time, I don't use it much any more. Maybe later when I get some more batteries.

I second this. I made one and took my camera down splash mountain with no worries.

Oh my! I can hardly believe it! Something terrific for my camera that doesn't cost a ton of $$$. Thanks for the idea about the camera poncho! Too clever.
