This is a new permanent addition to my vacation packing list. I've been a photographer for more than 35 years and have a wide range from the original Joby for point-and-shoot cameras up to full sized video and photo tripods.

This tripod is a fantastic little tripod. It weighs less than half a pound and is small enough to fit in your pocket or camera bag. The adjustable legs allow for one to stabilize your camera on a solid platform and on other surfaces such as fences as well.

An easily transportable and affordable tripod

Unfortunately it only reaches heights of about 6 inches

Great for use with typical-size webcams. The clip-on bit is great if you have a webcam on your monitor most of the time but occasionally put it somewhere else.

Extremely flexible Very grippy; but not unreasonably so Very strong once in place Lightweight

A little tough to make fine adjustments sometimes Could have longer legs

Tiny, featherweight, infinitely adaptable, this little gorillapod will allow you to use any imaginable object or surface as a mount for your point-and-shoot. I have used it on car roofs, fence rails, tree limbs, handlebars and rafters.

-- inexpensive; -- light; -- adaptable; -- has a tiny; quick-release mounting plate that can be locked to tripod; -- can be used as a toy in situations of emergency boredom

-- wouldn't put anything other than a little point-and-shoot camera on it

The Job Gorilla Pod 3K Kit is NOT the item shown in the image above, that is the 1K Kit (this image is very misleading, DONT be miss sold. The 3K Kit comes with a Quick Release Ball Head which is the biggest issue with this product.

"After roughly 6 months of light use, one leg has broken off."

I have a Sony a6000 mirrorless camera and I wasn't sure if I should go with the Hybrid or the DSLR GorillaPod. Glad I chose the Hybrid. It's a good size (I've read some people complain that it's smaller than they expected but it's fine if you think of it as a flexible tabletop tripod).

it weighs nothing and takes up no space, and means that you can take group shots without leaving someone out or having an obnoxious forearm in the picture. Usually takes a bit to get it to stand and balance but there is really nothing that it can't be afixed to, weather it be in the mountains or in...

Rugged; Simple; Reliable

Expensive

was actually quite surprised how much movement there is with the spirit level in my Gorillapod ballhead, am a little concerned this may have an effect on my images,....

Easy to use

Build quality

The Joby GorillaPod Focus is a great way to get your camera, or audio recorder in those tight, or hard to reach places. Supporting 5KG, you can get your full size DSLR and lens down low to the ground, or places just not accessible with a conventional tripod.
