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.

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

Fantastic for attaching baby monitor to the cot

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

Here at Gear Patrol, we really like taking pictures. That's why you see so much original photography here on the site (Yes, it's ironic to see a stock photo with this post, but how we gonna take a picture of our camera without our camera?).

Matty Graham reviews this handy camera support £40 The Gorillapod is lightweight, has a quick release plate and can hold up to 800g (the larger SLR Zoom can support 3kg). What makes this support special is the flexible legs that can be splayed like a tripod or wrapped around trees or posts.

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.

The Joby Gorillapod SLR is the newest addition to the Gorillapod lineup. Basically, it is a flexible tripod for versatility and portability.
