Product Overview

Novoflex PISTOCK-C Chestpod / Shoulder Pod

Novoflex's Chestpod is a great way to lend support when shooting with long lenses in scenarios where monopods and tripods would be impractical or prohibited. It begins as a comfortable neckstrap, which articulates to a wide rubberized base that rests on your chest, usually just below your sternum. Attached to this base is an arm that ends with a swivelling plate which has a 1/4"-20 screw for attaching the tripod collar of the lens. Of course, with medium "fast" telephoto lenses such as an 85mm f/1.2 or f/1.4, 135mm f/2.0 or the like, you would attach the front of the Chestpod to the bottom of the camera.

FAQs

How does the Novoflex Chestpod improve stability when shooting with long lenses?

The Novoflex Chestpod enhances stability by creating a solid support structure that reduces camera shake. By resting the broad, rubberized base on your chest and attaching your camera or lens to the swivelling plate, you form a stable triangle that helps distribute the weight of the camera, allowing for smoother and sharper images even when using longer telephoto lenses.

Can the Chestpod be used with different types of cameras and lenses?

Yes, the Novoflex Chestpod is versatile and can accommodate a range of cameras and lenses. For medium fast telephoto lenses such as 85mm or 135mm, you attach the Chestpod to the bottom of the camera. For longer lenses with tripod collars, you can mount the lens to the Chestpod directly, making it compatible with various setups.

What adjustments can be made to customise the fit and functionality of the Chestpod?

The Novoflex Chestpod offers adjustable angles between the arm and the camera attachment point, as well as an adjustable arm length. This allows users to customise the setup for their specific shooting style and body type, ensuring that it is both comfortable and effective for extended use.

How does the Chestpod help in situations where tripods are prohibited?

In locations where tripod use is restricted, such as tourist attractions or crowded events, the Chestpod provides an alternative solution. Its design allows photographers to stabilise their shots without the bulk of a tripod, enabling them to capture high-quality images in challenging environments where traditional support systems cannot be used.

Is the Chestpod comfortable for long shooting sessions?

Yes, the Novoflex Chestpod is designed with comfort in mind. It features a broad, stiffly-padded chest base that provides ample support while distributing the weight of the camera evenly across your torso. This design helps to minimise fatigue, allowing photographers to shoot for extended periods without discomfort.

Can I use the Chestpod with a quick-release adapter?

Absolutely, the Novoflex Chestpod can be used with a quick-release adapter, which facilitates faster attachment and detachment of your camera or lens. This feature is particularly useful for photographers who need to switch between different setups quickly or who want to maintain efficiency while shooting.
