5 out of 5 stars Great for awkward places   March 16, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I recently used the Gorillapod on a trip to the Bahamas. It is terrific for holding a camera in places that a conventional tripod would not work. It is small enough to carry in a small backpack, so there is no reason to leave it behind. It is a clever product that is very well executed.


5 out of 5 stars Take pictures you could have never taken before   March 16, 2007

I love this thing. I keep my camera hooked up to it all of the time. I only take it off when I need to slip it into my pocket. It is nice when I travel and throw my camera in with my clothes, it makes it easier to spot.


4 out of 5 stars Useful toy; not tool   March 11, 2007

It's fun. It's really easy to use, and its well designed and looks very alive and modern.

However, as might be imagined, it is not the stablest of all contraptions, and with a device that is supposed to supply more steadiness than your hands, this is a crucial setback.

Its fine for grabbing things and little tasks; don't expect any masterpieces to come out of it.

This flexible tripod works great. It attaches to almost anything, and is very secure in hold a camera, even a large digital SLR lik the nike D80. The only drawback is that it is a little bigger than I thought. However, I would recommend this little product.


2 out of 5 stars Not as good as a metal tripod   March 9, 2007
 2 out of 5 found this review helpful

The gorillapod has everything going for it except one glaring problem: A tripod is supposed to stabilize the camera, and the Gorillapod fails in this respect because even the smallest and lightest cameras vibrate and shake so badly after you take your hands off of the camera, that pictures turn out blurred. The problem is that the Gorillapod is made out of plastic and it is not stiff enough to prevent camera vibration, instead, it amplifies it and makes it worse. The only way to use the Gorillapod is with a 10 second timer to allow the vibrations to settle out...Nice try, but I'll stick with my miniature collapsible metal tripod....
