Platypod® to Excite Attendees at WPPI 2020 and Offer Show Specials


East Brunswick, N.J., February 12, 2020 – Platypod, makers of the world’s most compact camera supports designed to help photographers get steady shots in tight spots where standard tripods can’t go, will be demonstrating its latest products, including the new Platyball, and offering show specials at WPPI 2020 – Booth #1029 from February 25 – 27, 2020 in Las Vegas, NV.

Here’s what will be showcased at the Platypod booth:

Platyball – Launched last month via Kickstarter, the Platyball Elite and Ergo present a new, revolutionary way for photographers and videographers to level.  Featuring an inverted design, single handed ergonomics and a unique twist-action Arca compatible clamp, they have taken the classic tripod head design and turned it upside down.  Redesigned from the ground up, the Platyball becomes an extension of your hand and allows you to quickly level your camera better than ever before.

Platypod Max - Max is a flat and light tripod (the size of a mini tablet and only 13 oz.), that fits in any camera bag. Max is ideal for large equipment, like DSLR and video cameras with long telephoto or heavy macro lens.

Platypod Ultra – Ultra is the flat tripod designed for small to medium equipment, like mirrorless, GoPro, and compact DSLRs. It’s flat, light and compact (approx. the size of a smartphone and only 3.2 oz.), and fits in a pocket.

Multi Accessory Kit - Unlock the full potential of your Platypod tripods with this Multi-Accessory Kit. Compatible with Platypod Pro, Max or Ultra, unleash everything your Platypod has to offer with these handy tools: A 3-inch tall 3/4”f to 1/4”f spigot adapter for portable and studio lighting; a silicone pad to secure grip on flat surfaces; a 36-inch cinch strap for securing your Platypod on large, freestanding objects (such as trees and wide poles); and a 3/8”f to 1/4”m riser-adapter  that accommodates more tripod ball heads.
