Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a camera transport device for movingly supporting a camera from a suspension line and various example cable camera systems. In some examples, the camera transport device includes a cart module, a motor transportation module, a pan/tilt module including a panning assembly and a tilting assembly, and at least one gear train configured to drive rotation of the panning assembly and pivot of the tilting assembly. In some further examples, the camera transport device selectively includes one of an open configuration cart or a closed configuration cart for engaging with the suspension line.

Abstract: A lugged ice axe head including a head portion which may have accessories, such as an ice pick, attached thereto; and a lug sleeve attached to and extending generally downwardly from the ice axe head. The lug sleeve has a hollow central portion with an open lower end which is formed to receive a top end of a handle so that the handle securely nests within the central hollow. The handle is anchored within the elongate sleeve such that the sleeve inhibits damaging of the handle by misplaced blows.

Abstract: A diffusion device for a flash gun is provided in the form of a translucent box-like structure which fits on the end of a commercial flash gun. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, opaque shields are provided for the front and back of the diffusion device which can be selectively added or removed to produce special effects. In accordance with another aspect of the invention, a slot is provided in the top of the diffusion device for retaining a reflector.

Abstract: A clamp for a flash gun is provided which can be slipped on and off the gun and which has a slot therein whereby a bounce-flash reflector can be retained in said slot. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a second, opposed slot is provided so that one slot is adapted to retain a reflector and the opposite slot is adapted to retain a diffuser.

Abstract: A bounce-flash reflector is provided which is highly effective in providing an even distribution of light and which is simple and compact so that it can be readily carried in a pocket or the like.
