<p>Vanguard, a global manufacturer of tripods, camera bags and sports optics is pleased to announce the launch of a new information site, whytripod.com on March 15, 2014. The new site is a tribute to the Real Photographer, photographers who are as passionate about photography as professionals or enthusiasts, with a focus on the use of the tripod as a key tool for any photographer.</p><p>Phone-based photography has been grabbing the headlines lately and relegating serious photography to the back pages. As a leader in the industry, Vanguard wants to ensure that the photographer with a DSLR or an advanced 4/3 mirror less camera never gets lost. We developed whytripod.com as a tribute to the "Real Photographer" with a focus on the use of the tripod, a necessary tool for anyone taking serious images. "Real Photographers are people that wake up early in the morning to capture sunrise in the golden hour and then stay up past midnight editing to create the perfect image," said Doug Feldner, Vanguard USA Director of Sales and Marketing. He added, "We wanted to create a site dedicated to inspiring these photographers and providing them information and tools for creating fantastic images."</p><p>The new information site also introduces a new blog offering unique insights and perspectives from photography professionals, industry leaders, and the Vanguard marketing team. Whytripod.com also includes ecommerce solutions that allow visitors to purchase products, which range from a variety of heads to award winning tripods. The ecommerce portion of the site will be live this summer.</p><p>Whytripod.com is designed to educate and inform the Real Photographer at any skill level. Revolving around the use of the tripods, the site provides tips & tutorials as well as highlighting workshops, seminars and, photography tours. With frequent updates and information, visitors will return to whytripod.com as part of their photographic journey.</p><p><a href="http://www.digitaljournal.com/pr/1793960">Keep reading...</a></p>
