Slik Tripod Instructions
Slik tripods are used with digital cameras and camcorders to give a steady shot. The Slik tripod allows you to manipulate the height, angle and steady pan of the shot that you're taking. The Slik tripod compacts itself so it can be mobile. You don't have to be a professional photographer to use the Slik tripod. There are several easy-to-use knobs and locks on the unit that will give you the shot you want.
