Modern. No batteries. Not hot shoes.

 

[lucien]

size of item? Unless a give away

 

[lucien]

Not necessarily

 

[lucien]

tripod with an unscrewable leg to be a monpod

Close enough. Didn't think it would last as it did. Photo related is hard to get away with. I remember the Nikon FTn meter's attachment lever (over at mu43 I believe) close up lasted only a few guesses.

Over to you Lucien.

Gotta keep plugging away man It's the only way, that's an odd colour for the ball mount though. I've never seen one in that colour.

Thats why I picked it. All black would have been instantly recognized.

There's lots of silver ball heads, both economical and more expensive.

Ok. Hint III. The Reveal.

The light pattern caught my eye. The bottom of the bottle is a heavy plastic that had interesting texture as well.

I had no idea what it was but I really liked the shot for the patterns and light.

Mine is low profile and really robust and cheap with smooth actions. Now even cheaper on sale.
