Camera pentapod

Yet another of my bird brained ideas,this one was for an ultra lightweight camera tripod.

I purchased a camera mount for my leki poles and started to Muse as to how I could make it stable enough to act like a tripod,after much deliberation I came up with the idea of using guy lines to hold the pole steady. As you can see in the above photo it holds my bridge camera with no problems.

Once finished the guy lines simply wrap around the handle and the tent pegs (titanium of course) can be fastened to the pole, I have some linelocs to add to the guy lines which should make adjustments easier.
