 Works great! February 7, 2007

I am really happy with the tripod. I had purchased a simalar product at Wolf Camera, a cheaper knock-off, for my brother-in-law. The thing broke on first contact! So I returned that one and purchased the real thing, the Gorillapod, and I'm so happy I did. I also purchased one for my 12 year old daughter and she's been enjoying it with no problems.

Having never seen or used this product, this was purchased based on others' reviews and I was not disappointed. I purchased two as gifts and the recipients love them - very convenient, and sturdy.
 a great addition to your camera kit February 6, 2007

This tripod is great for travelling and for using in spots where a 'real' tripod can not be set up. (like I used it inside a Cathedral to take photos)
It is strong enough to hold a SLR camera. Mine had no problems with a Nikon D70 and chunky lens.
But you really want a tripod head to use on the gorillapod - makes your life a lot easier.
I attached my camera directly to the gorillapod, and it made it awkward for doing a panorama or just changing angles. I really needed like a ball-head tripod head on the gorillapod to give me that freedom of movement once the tripod is secure.
I like the weight of it. Means I can just chuck it in my backpack, and I dont have to carry around a huge tripod all day. [...] It is just very handy for certain situations.
The gorillapod is a well-built quality product that wont fall apart on you. It is a great addition to your kit.
THIS THING IS GREAT! A QUANTUM LEAP!!! February 2, 2007

Like some other reviewers, I've lugged 5-pound, complicated-to-get-just-right tripods around for decades. Never again. This thing holds my Nikon D70 just fine. It barely breaks a sweat when I put my completely manual, circa 1970s Nikon FM on it.
I have a Sigma 70-250 mm zoom, and it holds the FM and the lense just fine. I have not put any large telephoto lenses on my D70 because I can't seem to get the vaunted telephotos available for it (that's a whole other story).
Nor have I wrapped this GorillaPod around any telephone poles or fenceposts. I've never needed to, and probably won't.
But for steadying your camera, and for timed shutter release shots (usually the family and me), it is unparalleled. It's light, seems bulletproof, and absolutely ingenious.
Strongly, strongly recommended.

I bought it thinking it would hold my SLR and boy was I wrong! It's great for compact digitals but is not strong enough to hold anything big. Oh well.
