Los Angeles , CA, August 11th, 2004- HI-POD returns to the WEVA Expo with the highly anticipated stability harness. This accessory takes the HI-POD to a new level. Adding to the HI-POD’s speed, mobility, and altitude; the stability harness gives the user an added measure of security as well as stability for steady shots. In addition the stability harness has a second attachment point that makes the HI-POD useful as a true crane, allowing sweeping or following shots, like in your favorite movies. You can even walk with the HI-POD to create steadi-cam movement. Once more, the HI-POD truly takes it to a higher level.
