Rugged and portable, the Fluid Head Tripod/Monopod from Padcaster is designed for use with their iPad line, Smartphone Verse products, and most anything else with a camera. Built using aluminum, it can endure a wide range of shooting situations and its back-folding legs make it compact enough to clip onto your backpack.
Featuring a fluid pan and tilt head that can support up to 13.2 pounds, your devices will be secure and balanced. There are also two ball-level adjustments to help ensure your shots are horizontally and vertically level, even if the ground beneath you isn't.

If you're looking for even more of an on-the-go solution, unscrew one of the tripod legs and attach it to the removable center column to create a monopod.
Additional features include a 3/8"-16 accessory interface to mount other equipment, removable spike feet for improved stability and grip while shooting outdoors, a spring-loaded hook to add extra weight for greater stability, a spare 3/8"-16 screw pre-mounted in the tripod head, and a weatherproof zipper carry bag for added protection against the elements.

An elastic rain cover is included for further protection.
Padcaster Supershade
The Padcaster Supershade is designed to work with the 9.7 or 10.5" Padcaster, so you can have a fully functional teleprompter or viewfinder with your iPad. This shade has a hard-plastic cover that minimizes glare from the sun, studio lighting, and similar conditions.
It also functions as a durable hard case and privacy barrier. If you pull open the top, you can lock the side flaps to create total coverage from unwanted light and unwelcome bystanders. Alternatively, you can fold in the flaps and snap the lid closed to lock the Supershade shut and protect your iPad from damage.
The Supershade doubles as an integrated stand for easy screen viewing. Simply flip it upside-down, and you get full access to review your footage. This shade not only attaches to select Padcaster models, but it also features mounting screws that provide six additional 1/4"-20 threads for connecting your favorite accessories.
