Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention is a hand-held auxiliary tool that can be attached to a camera so that when a lightweight camera such as a compact camera or a film with a lens is used, the photographer can photograph himself / herself without using a tripod. The structure will be described with reference to examples. A multi-stage telescopic rod with a total length of about 1 meter, which is formed by connecting several metal pipes with different diameters with a rotation prevention groove (3), which is used for a normal camera tripod ( At the thinnest end of 1), attach the camera fixture (2) that has the same standard screw for fixing to the tripod screw hole installed at the bottom of the camera, and attach the thickest pipe part at the other end of the telescopic rod. Provided with a non-slip grip part (4).

 With this configuration, a lightweight compact camera with a self-timer can be fixed to the camera fixing tool at the end of the telescopic rod in the specified direction, the self-timer can be activated, and the grips can be firmly gripped and supported without the need for a tripod or human assistance. You can easily shoot yourself. Therefore, although it is limited to the close range with the telescopic rod and arm length added, you can easily shoot yourself at any angle when a tripod cannot be used, and a camera equipped with a wide-angle lens can Group photography of four people is also possible, and it is light and compact enough to fit in a pocket or handbag, so it is extremely convenient to carry on trips where you cannot carry a tripod.

 As for the lens-equipped film that does not have a self-timer, the telescopic rod tip has a lens that can be inserted and fixed in the gap between the camera body of the shutter button of the film with lens of a specific model and the cardboard mounting box as shown in Fig. 3. A film fixture (7) is provided, and a self-timer (8) for pressing the shutter button is installed on the film fixture. If the lens-fitted film is mounted upside down, the self-timer can be mounted in the same way as the self-timer compact camera. You can shoot. Alternatively, the self-timer may be replaced with a shutter button operation tool (13) so that it can be operated at hand by connecting with a string and the shutter can be released by itself. As a general-purpose type, two types of film-fixing device with lens and camera-fixing device can be prepared, and the telescopic rod can be attached or detached to be used for either type. If the extension rod's connection part is made the same as the screw hole for the tripod of the compact camera, you can take a tripod by removing the extension rod and attaching only the fixing part to the camera with lens, which is convenient for different occasions. .
