Swing rod

A swing rod is a device for stabilising a camera position around the no-parallax point without needing a tripod[*], the principle is identical to a Philopod[*].

A telescopic car aerial is used as the rod. Although heavier, this is more convenient to carry than a Philopod[*] where the string has to be wound/unwound and can get tangled easily.
