Going of the 1kg weight specification, I purchased this tripod to use with my DSLR which weighs 800g with lens and it was very unstable, even with the rubber grips the weight of the camera was forcing the tripod legs to slowly slide apart, which made my long exposure shots blurry.

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...

Really smooth and neat stand.

This is my first Gorillapod as I saw reviews on previous generations and the designs appeared to have significant flaws.

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.

My son is ordering one after I showed him mine. I think that I should have purchased the one with the longer legs. I am very happy with this produce. I attached a small camera to the GorillaPod and then attach the GorillaPod to my bow.

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

Good Stability; Lightweight

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
