ABSTRACT:
A device for transporting a camera and for reducing camera shake and arm fatigue by stabilizing the camera against the torso of a person. The device includes an arm that telescopes to a length suitable for the user to position the end of the arm upon which the camera is mounted adjacent his face. A bulbous, generally arcuate-shaped bumper is located at the end of the arm opposite that on which the camera is mounted and permits the use of the camera at various angles relative to the user's torso. Further, a neck strap is pivotally located adjacent the bumper such that when the neck strap is worn about the person's neck, and the camera is in use, the arm of the device is raised to place the camera at the person's eye level and the bumper rests against the person's torso but when the camera is not in use, the arm is lowered to allow the camera to be conveniently carried in front of or to one side of the user.
