Fujifilm Camcushion

You've got to admire a company that releases a bean bag and calls it a camera accessory. Fujifilm has done just that, launching the Camcushion camera pillow onto the unsuspecting camera market. The idea is that if you need to steady your pictures for long shutter speeds, or maybe if you don't have a reliably flat surface to hand for taking a group shot on timer, you can pop your camera onto the Camcushion and provide instant steady hold. It's also supposed to save you the hassle of carrying round and setting up a tripod at every photo op. It's only £9.99 and probably more usable than those low-end bendy tripods you can get for the same price, so Fujifilm may well have managed to pull this one off.
