 digital camera necessity November 24, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I am a mom who takes her 2-year-old everywhere. On our last outing to the zoo, we used our Gorillapod to take a family photo. We were able to attach it to the umbrella stroller handle, without tipping it over. WE LOVE IT!!! I think we have our Christmas photo. This tripod is great for any parent trying to catch their kids in action. I actually get to be in the photo with my daughter, without having to bother strangers.
Must have November 20, 2006

Just returned from a 2 week trip to Turkey where I was able to take some unbelievable pictures with my digital pocket camera thanks to this amazing gadget. Holds camera on anything (railings, rock outcroppings, etc.) and can even hold it for vertical format pictures. Allowed me to take pictures of me and my girlfriend that would have been impossible otherwise. Allowed me to take time lapse pictures that could only be taken with a tripod in places where other pocket tripods wouldn't work and normal size ones aren't allowed. All this and it fits in your pocket. I'm telling all my friends, and getting my Dad one for Christmas. A must have.

This thoughtful piece of interlocking spheres, reminiscent of a toy my kids used to have - I played also - , makes a great companion for the Canon G3 I have, given both its weight and remote control functions. I first saw the smaller model but wanted a wide enough base to shoot vertically at stars for ex. This hit that sweet spot for me. Also, the unit's rigidity allows it to become a "handle" wielding the camera-head, hatchet-like.
I am expecting it to outlast the earth it's on, given its polymer base.
I would like to have taken this next step from the toys of twenty years ago! This is design engineering at its best.

This is a great product, there is always a place you can put this tripod on to take a great picture. Very useful, you could not live without it once you have it. I will buy the one for SRL cameras...
Best tripod on the market!! September 28, 2006

I still can't believe that this thing is real! And I'm blown away by the quality of the tripod.
The 'legs' are stiff enought that it doesn't fall out of shape as it holds the camera. Each little grey ring around the ball-like pieces are rubberized to help it grip onto objects. I have been able to mount my Canon SD600 and hold one 'foot' of the tripod while it remains in the shape I bent it into. The leg didn't change shape or sag at all.
I've had it on top of my LCD, hung it from a doorway, sitting on top of a lamp... I think the legs are long enough and the feet are 'grippy' enough to mount it to the side of a bowling ball!
The clip on top lets you mount and dismount the camera quite easily and without hassle. The only problem I could see is that with the mounting clip attached to the camera I can't put the camera in the fitted Canon carrying case that I have for the SD600. Well, it fits with it on, but very snug.
I can't stress how much I love this little tripod!! Get one; you won't be disappointed!
