    ... but it's probably cheaper to buy new pants, unless you plan to do this often.

    That one could have been useful for the camera, but my leather glove ground pod did the job OK. What I didn't have was a "ground pod" for me (a fairly big guy), and I'm not sure this thing would be able to fix that .

    You can make a cheap one with an old frying pan. Take the handle off and screw an arca swiss type clamp to the bottom of the pan (inside/center) to mount the lens or camera to. If you need a little more weight (and to deaden the sound when sliding), pack small sand bags inside the pan around the mount.

    I think I read something a few years ago from Art Morris that describe something he used that was similar.
