Selfie Sticks: 5 Fast Facts

Fact #1. There are options for multiple types of cameras. The most widely known use is for smartphones. That is partially because they are the most common cameras that people have. But it's also because the selfie phenomenon started with them. But some sticks are compatible with things like GoPros and DSLR cameras. These are generally more expensive.
Fact #2. Pay attention to the mount. That's the part that holds your device. The one you want will be compatible with all of your devices. But it should also be sturdily built. The last thing you want is to break your phone or expensive camera because a screw comes loose.
Fact #3. They're basically just a modified monopod. That's more or less a single-legged tripod. The other aspects are that it has a pole and a clamp. But these have extra options. Typically they telescope outward, with a thick grip. Many offer Bluetooth remote controls, built-in shutter buttons, and wrist straps. That makes them simple to transport and to set up a perfect shot.
Fact #4. Most can't hold over two pounds. The best of them are very durable, of course. They still have a weight limit, however. Past that, it will be hard to hold the device up, much less steady. And it might compromise the structure of the stick. This shouldn't be a problem for most users. But there are very fancy cameras that would be a terrible fit.
Fact #5. They took 90 years to catch on. There is evidence of one in a self-portrait from 1926. It was ultimately patented in 1983 by a man named Hiroshi Ueda. Unfortunately, he is not living large off that invention. It took until the Time Magazine named it one of the best inventions of the year in 2014 for widespread adoption to begin.
