I did a review of the XShot about a month ago. We took it with us on a weekend getaway to Jasper and had a lot of fun with it. To learn more about the XShot and to read why I am such a fan of it, please read my original review post.
In short, the XShot allows you to take pictures on your own without having to carry a tripod wherever you go. When I was putting together my holiday festival I immediately thought of requesting to include a giveaway from XShot. This is a fantastic gift for anyone. If you travel on your own, it gives you the flexibility of being able to include yourself in any picture you want. Even if you travel with a group it's still great to have. Who really likes to be left out of group pictures?The XShot can be purchased for $29.95 on the XShot site and ships to Canada, US and internationally.
XShot has generously offered one lucky This Bird's Day reader an XShot of their own as a giveaway.

We would use it for our own family pictures. We are avid photographers but sometimes it's hard to take a picture with the whole family in it...

I would use it for my family, for all kinds of fun pictures. Would be nice to have some good ones of all 3 of us, instead of always just 2 at a time.

I would keep this for myself and use it to take pictures of me with my kids. I am never in any pictures!! I'd also lend it out to anyone who is travelling. I wish I had had this for my many world travels.

What a neat device! I don't plan on going anywhere exciting any time soon, but it would be great to use on a local trail to get some nice pictures of my boyfriend and I. We don't have nearly enough pictures of the two of us.

I'd like to give this to my brother! He and his wife travel and hike a lot, and I was just making fun of him because all of their pictures together on facebook are super-closeups clearly taken with the camera in his hand. Can't even see the scenery!

I would give this to my kids, who love photography.
This device is genious. I would use it quite often when I am out with my family and want to be included in the pictures. Most of our pictures are just of my kids or my husband and kids. I have so few with me in it as well.
I would give this to my husband for Christmas!
I completly agree - So genious!!! How many times does one think to themselves how taking a picture of themself or with someone else would be so great (especially on vacation), but scared to ask someone to take a picture of them. I'm always so scared that the individual would just run away with your camera or take a bad picture! hehe! Love this product!

This would be for me because I'm generally too shy to ask a stranger to take my picture in a scene. Please accept my entry. Thank you.
i want to win this
I would actually like this for myself. I have NO pictures of myself with my kids because I'm always behind the camera. This would allow me to get in front of the camera for once.
