Fish scalers, nail files, toothpicks, and magnifying glasses are fine enough items to add to a multitool, but they aren't going to be the game-changers that will get me to buy one. The Gerber Steady (due Spring 2012), on the other hand, has something beside the standard multitool assortment of knives, bottle openers, and wee mini saws - little gray legs that fold out to make a camera tripod!
The Steady has the handy tripod and a standard camera mount screw to hold your camera still, without the unavoidable tiny little movements that holding it by hand invariably brings.
It sure beats trying to take a steady pic by holding your camera really tightly with both hands and leaning hard against a nearby post or ledge or bench or chair back.
