Luv2Cruiise Posted March 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I am looking to buy a Selfie stick that has a remote if possible that will fit a larger type cell phone or camera, can anyone recommend a good one? My cell phone is about the size of a Galaxy Note. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisingLover Posted April 6, 2017 #5 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I am looking for one to use if I want to take videos and reg pics, not really for selfies lol I'm curious....why do you need a selfie stick to take pictures and videos?

shootr Posted April 6, 2017 #6 Share Posted April 6, 2017 Sorry, I do not have advice on a particular brand - but for the other's questioning your need... 1] Some peoples' stature benefits from a device that can elevate the camera above the surrounding, naturally taller photographers. Perhaps OP is confined to a wheelchair or other infirmity that prohibits them from being at the same level as most around them. 2] Possibly tired of "pro" photographers standing in prime spots for selfish amounts of time, and just wants to get a similar shot and move on. 3] Perhaps OP is creative enough to recognize the benefits of altered perspectives, i.e: ground level shots, vertical shots that are uncomfortable/undoable without an aid, and is just creative in general. I hope someone can actually help you out, and happy photography! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, with regard to your comment about "pro" photographers, if I get up early enough or I plan ahead to get a prime spot, I am not giving up my spot for those people who want to borrow my spot "for just a second" but could not be bothered to get there as early as I did.

Rare pierces Posted April 11, 2017 #8 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I use a small monopod (Velbon Ultra Stick) to elevate my camera or to provide extra reach. It is much sturdier than your typical selfie stick and with a little judicious use of the self-timer, I don't really need a remote. It collapses to just over 10 inches and extends to just under five feet. Incredibly handy. It is also quite solid when actually used as a monopod.
