"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).

, but it gets the job done. Mainly use this for a GoPro and couldn't be more happy with the results. Wish the little pieces would stay together a bit more firm but this thing is so handy that it doesn't even matter

A great tripod with multiple uses and we'll worth spending a little bit more cash to get a decent tripod

Fantastic for attaching baby monitor to the cot

I use this product mostly to mount my wireless flash just were I want it what can i say it will stand lean hang do pretty much anything you want of it. With the flexability of the legs it seems limited in its support. but it does what it is designed for and it looks cool at the same time.

I love taking night or long exposure photos; however, keeping your camera still is always the issue. There are tips and tricks to hand-hold and steady your camera, but often with long exposures, they're still not good enough.

-Small; light; and portable; -Integrated ballhead; -Wraps and grips around a whole range of objects; -Easily creates a stable; level platform both horizontally and vertically

-Pan without tilt a little bit awkward; -Unknown how the joints and rubber will perform long term

Over the last few weeks, I've been using the Gorillapod Original to take macro pictures used on my food blog. Since my compact digital camera doesn't have image stabilization, the Gorillapod has been fantastic at steadying the picture. It's also great for taking group shots during a hike.

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

A tripod is an essential accessory for anyone who cares about their photography. It's the only thing that can totally eliminate camera shake, even on very long exposures, and as I've noted before the action of setting up a camera and tripod has the effect of forcing you to think about your shot...
