For several weeks now, I have been keeping the mini-tripod that I bought for my trip to Turkey attached to my point and shoot digital camera all the time. Doing so has proved useful in a very great many circumstances: primarily those in which low levels of ambient light have been available. Many of my best recent photos would have been impossible without it. Having it attached has also changed the way in which I approach photography, generally, and what sort of images I try to capture.
You can get a similar tripod on eBay for a couple of Pounds.

In the spring of 2005, I graduated from the University of British Columbia with a degree in International Relations and a general focus in the area of environmental politics. In the fall of 2005, I began reading for an M.Phil in IR at Wadham College, Oxford.
Outside school, I am very interested in photography, writing, and the outdoors. I am writing this blog to keep in touch with friends and family around the world, provide a more personal view of graduate student life in Oxford, and pass on some lessons I've learned here.

Takes some of the ‘compact’ out of compact camera, doesn’t it?
It is even worse now. I have stepped things up to a UCO Ultrapod Small Tripod.
A review is forthcoming.
