Perfect for the Mobile Photographer.  Personally I hate carrying a tripod because it cuts down on my mobility and is a pain to carry around.  However, I sometimes regret not having the tripod when I need the extra support ot keep the camera steady.  The Ergorest works fantastically as a Chest Pod, steadying the camera surprisingly well and allowing you to get shots all the way down to 1/8th second, or by simply getting sharper images from reduced camera movement.  Better yet, this will not reduce your mobility and easy to carry.  The built in hand grip makes it comfortable to use.  For this reason alone, this a great product and worth every penny. Works equally as well for Binoculars and Spotting Scopes.  Will sit on your Car Hood or Rooftop, will attach to your Car Window in seconds, Great for Macro Work on the ground. You can mount your own ball head and quick release easily to the Ergoflex or we can supply you with the Correct Ball/Pan head or quick release system.  None of these items are necessary for use, but they do increase the useability of the system. A Good Investment, A great Gift- $109
