As you all know by now, my layout doesn’t have much level ground. Because of the steep and uneven terrain, I’m finding it difficult to mount the camera on a tripod and still get close enough to the subject. For maximum depth of field, I want to use the smallest aperture, but often this means using very slow shutters speeds – requiring more stability than can be provided by a hand-held camera.
Any suggestions on how to provide a stable mount, close to the model on uneven ground?
