As a basic camera mount the Cinesaddle is far more versatile than the tripod. It is lighter, smaller, offers greater stability and it will never pinch your fingers.

No fluid head is needed; the Cinesaddle grips the camera tightly, keeping it rock steady while you make any shot. Panning and tilting is as easy as with a fluid head, only the technique is different. The Cinesaddle's small size lets you mount your camera in the most confined space. Only one cubic foot in size, the Cinesaddle's total weight is one and a half pounds. That's less than half the weight of a standard zoom lens!

For an eye level shot, mount your camera onto any stable object such as a piece of furniture, a prop or your camera case. This wondrous product encourages each individual camera operator to use their creative abilities to the utmost and get more exciting footage than was previously possible.

The Cinesaddle is more versatile than the tripod though it is suggested that when you want an eye level shot you use a saddle as a replacement for a fluid head atop any tripod.
