Yokozuna Ninja Booming Grip of Righteousness (Camera copy stand tripod adapter)

Step 5: Lights, camera, action!

Using the tripod also gives you a handy place to clamp on some lights, which obviously I do not have.  It may be good to use a remote shutter cable or set the camera to shoot on a timer so you don't shake the tripod as you take the shot.

There you have it, the Yokozuna Ninja Booming Grip of Righteousness. And suddenly out of nowhere, you are taking professional pictures. Use it wisely.
