Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Joby GP1-A1EN Gorillapod Flexible Tripod (Grey and Black)
Customer Review: Comes in Handy
Summary: 5 Stars
If you've got a small point-and-click camera, this is a great little tool to have. While there are other small, traditional tripods, I found this one to be the most useful. I wrap its legs around posts, on top of signs, etc. and can take pictures from crazy angles (and heights if you're feeling adventurous). It's small enough to not take up a lot of room in my backpack.
The only downside is that there is no way to tell how level the camera is to the ground. So you might take some crooked pictures unless you're really good at eyeballing it. Practice helps.
Customer Review: Very Impressive!
Summary: 5 Stars
I wasnt sure whether or not to buy this product for my nikon s10 merely because I was worried it wouldnt be able to support the weight (about 3 pounds).
So, I decided to go to the store and check it out. We tested a camera that was easily more than 3 pounds on it and whose tripod attachment at the bottom was not in the center of the camera. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the gorillapod held on strong and balanced the heavy-weight camera with ease.
Definitely a good product and worth buying if you are a bit more serious about picture taking.
Customer Review: For the ultimate portable, flexible, lightweight tripod
Summary: 5 Stars
This tripod is amazing. I use it very often. Unlike big tripods that often take up a lot of space and are a hassle to carry, this little tripod can attach to the backs of chairs, sit on a car, wrap around a ledge, a fence, a door knob, a computer monitor, or a pole. I love to take this on vacation and not have the hassle of bringing a big tripod. For 80% of the photographs I could take, this will suffice just fine vs. a big tripod. Every section bends and rotates so this can achieve so many different positions and wrap around just about anything arm sized or smaller.Customer Review: Great little tripod!

This is a fantastic idea which works perfectly. You can adjust it in any possible way you like but somehow it is still rigid enough to stay in whichever position you put it in. You can rap it around a tree, or just use it as a regular tripod, works wonderfully. I got this for my Canon compact digital camera as I like to take videos with it and I always hate it when it tips over. There is a piece on top which you take out, screw into your camera, then reattach with your camera on it onto the tripod, which locks onto it. Great price, great product, highly recommended!Customer Review: GENIUS Design
Summary: 5 Stars
Okay, this is one of those gadget you think you'll never use except for once in a while. WRONG. It is hands down the most best thing I've ever purchased for under $25. The three little legs are flexible and sturdy. They are also remarkably stable for the size. I can fit it in my camera case along with my camera. It is lightweight and cool looking. Every single time I use it public, people always ask where I got it. I think this item is a must for everybody who takes a photos. No more asking strangers to take a photo, this little tripod does it all.
