Consider the following.

These come in different heights be sure to get the right height. I have a 31 inch inseam. This height is good for me to work near the ground. I use this for some macro photos.

You might consider going to say harbor Freight and getting a set of the interlocking foam pads which are about 2' x 2'. I stack two or three and use them on concrete to stand on otherwise my back kills me. They are fairly cheap so you could try them. If they work cut one down into smaller pieces and stack enough pieces to do the job. They could be taped or perhaps glued together and hung on your belt with a cord. They would be very light to transport.

I did not experience any pain from kneeling after my total knee replacement. My surgeon warned me that it might "feel funny." It did but it was not painful. I'm three years post surgery now and my knee feels normal when kneeling.

Hello, I hope some of you can offer me suggestions on this topic. In the last 18 months I have had both of my knees replaced. I am recovering fine but my problem is I can't kneel on the ground or floors or even carpet. I think it will always be somewhat painful. I used to kneel on one knee quite often when taking photos free hand as it seemed to stabilize me more than just standing and also there are many times I wanted the lower composition.

So my question is does anyone experience the same problem and have you found any really soft knee pads that seem to work? Any ideas would be very much appreciated.

Thanks!
