Product Description The Joby GP3-01EN Gorillapod SLR-Zoom makes taking digital photos more fun than ever. Designed with the serious photographer in mind, the Gorillapod lets you mount your camera or video camera just about anywhere you want so that you can increase your creative options. All you need to do is use the universal 1/4-20 screw or your own tripod head to attach your camera to the standard tripod mount, then wrap the three flexible segmented legs securely to a nearby tree branch, fence, park bench, or anything else that's convenient. Say goodbye to looking for ways to stabilize your handheld shots or to get that unique perspective--now you can be free to shoot however you like! Durable and innovative, the Gorillapod weighs just 8.5 ounces, or 241 grams, and can support cameras--such as DSLRs with zoom lensea and video cameras--weighing up to 6.6 pounds, or 3 kilograms. Measuring just 9.8 inches in length, the Gorillapod fits easily into a purse, backpack, or even a roomy jacket pocket. +PLUS+ ACCESSORY KIT: Lens Pen Cleaning Tool - Cap Keeper Front Lens Cap Leash - Advanced Micro Fiber Cleaning Cloth - Pack of LCD Screen Protectors - Deluxe Cleaning and Care Kit. includes: cleaning fluid, cloth, tissue pack, blow brush and cotton swabs. - BONUS! 25 Free Quality Digital Prints (Promo code on invoice)

Well, it's flexible! December 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Gorillapod is very handy and is the right size to pack in your bag. You have to be careful though about what size lens you have on your camera before using it, it's not very stable. You also have to find the right type of surface for it to rest on, such as a flat table top or some rocks. You also have to be careful about what you wrap it around for higher up work. It grips, but not well. I would recommend the product for a point and shoot or a light camera with a smaller lens, but not for a serious kit.

I love my Gorillapod and would've given it 5 stars if it had a built-in level. I have a hard time getting the tripod level when I put it on the counter or the mantle to shoot video at family events. (We have 3 Great Danes so I rather set the camera safely above them on my Gorillapod instead of on a full-size tripod on the floor.) It takes awhile to get the camera setup straight since there is no built-in level on the head of the Gorillapod. Other than that, I love this tripod. I use this for my Rebel XT with zoom to get some very cool close-ups. The other great thing is that I can roll it into a ball and toss it in my camera bag. My 11-year-old uses it with her camera to shoot pictures of herself with friends and my 2-year-old has thoroughly tested its durability. It's worth $50, try it!
the tripod is great, the accessories are not May 13, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
