5 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant - love it!   November 9, 2007

Got this for my boyfriend's birthday earlier in the year and it has become an indispensible bit of kit on our hillwalking days. It lives in a little pocket of the rucksack and comes out at every summit - wraps round a rock no problem and so quick to set up. Lightweight, takes up hardly any space, cool, funky and fab. We recommend it to everyone - love it!!

I bought the Joby Gorillapod for my husband for Christmas; he was thrilled and had never seen one before. It is an amazing 'bit of kit' and so flexible you can more or less attach it to anything. We've had hours of fun taking pictures of all the family; normally one of us gets left out, but now we can all be together in more family shots.

This is bound to become a design icon of the future and really "does what it says on the tin". And a real bonus is that it's small enough to put in you coat pocket and weighs about 2oz. Just fantastic, highly recommended.

This is a great idea. A tripod with segmented legs that you can just bend into the position you want.
It has some major advantages over a normal mini tripod.
The main one for me is that it copes effortlessly with uneven surfaces that would make another tripod unstable. And you can squeeze it easily into awkward shaped places.
It will, to some extent, cling to branches and things if you wrap the legs around them. But while slightly rubbery, there isn't enough grip to hold it steady on, say, a vertical post.
There's a tiny adapter that you can screw onto your camera and leave there. Then your camera slots onto the tripod in a second. Very slick.
The gorillapod weighs almost nothing and it's tiny, so you can put it in your shirt pocket.
There aren't really any downsides,except that you should know this version is only for really small cameras like the Canon Ixus. Anything bigger will be too heavy (there are bigger gorillapods for bigger cameras).
I wholeheartedly recommend it.



5 out of 5 stars This tripod will enhance your social life   January 18, 2009

For those of you reluctant to buy a camera tripod because it will mean that no longer will you have the excuse of striking up conversations whilst travelling alone by asking members of the opposite sex to take a quick photo, FEAR NOT. The Gorilla Tripod is so unbelievably addictive to handle and use that on more than one occasion i have been on dates with girls who have first spoken to me to compliment my tripod.

It grips onto enough stuff to get a photo anywhere - and if it doesn't it stands firm as a simple tripod.

I travel alone a great deal and such is the pleasure of using this that i am now far more imaginative about the phtoographs i try and take and the benefit is you end up with far more with people in which makes them far more intersting to family and friends.

If you travel alone. Buy one. It will enhance your photography and revolutionise your social life.

At first look it seems weak but it holds all my big SLR type cameras with ease because its so light I take it with me in pocket, where as I would never bother with a big tripod. Also means whole family photos are easy to take with self timer, no more balancing camera and praying wind does not knock it over
