 Use this tripod to take photos anywhere! September 28, 2008
My husband and I use our gorillapod constantly to set up self-timer photos in unusual settings and where no one else is around. I.e., perched on a rock near waterfalls, wrapped around metal poles or tree branches, propped on the hood of our Jeep. This is a must-have if you like to take photos outside and stray from common tourist destinations. It works great for small and mid-size cameras. I'm not sure it would support the weight of a larger model. The legs are fully adjustable and the top swivels up and down which allows various photo angles. It's about 8 inches long and folds up slim which makes it easy to pack. I have also bought gorillapods for 2 family members already and we all love them.

This review is for the Joby GP1-EGEN Gorillapod Flexible Tripod (Green)
I love it!
Great with my Canon PowerShot SD750 even on vertical mode! It's also easy to carry as I just hang one of the leg inside my small camera bag (Case Logic TBC-3) and secure it with the zipper.
A little contraption, a BIG help! September 24, 2008
tiny and efficient, this tripod is easy to take with you and very versatile. Easy to set-up and fun to use!!!
Get a grip! September 23, 2008
The only tripod I had until recently was collapsible yet amazingly heavy. As such, it spends more time in my drawer than in my bag. Recent outings with my Flip Mino have proven that no matter how steady I think my stance is, I shake more than a chihuahua in February. I had seen the original Gorillapod some time back but couldn't justify the purchase since I rarely took photos at the time.
Taking a cue from a friend who records his Mino Thoughts while navigating California traffic, I looked into Joby's latest release - the Gorillapod GoGo. Their "mobile entertainment kit" includes the original Gorillapod tripod, a standard screw mount for digital cameras, a suction mount and two adhesive mounts.
As you can see from the photo, the flexible legs will allow for mounting pretty much anywhere. Can't find a flat surface? Wrap it around a branch. Just a teensy bit too high? Ball joints allow you to adjust as teensy a bit as you need. The feet are rubberized, as well as the ring around each joint, making for a secure and non-slip grip. I like the inclusion of the suction mount - perfect for iPhone/iPod viewing. I can't imagine myself using the adhesive clips on any of my toys but they are pretty sleek and low-profile. It's probably more of a problem to me since I lean towards white for my gadgetry and the clips are black.
One undocumented use that I've discovered is "desk toy". I'm forever picking it up and flexing the legs around. But I'm not playing...no. I'm...stress testing! Yeah, that's it. Stress testing.
For around thirty bucks, it's certainly not a purchase that needs justification. If you have gear - cell phones, cameras, PDAs, MP3 players, GPS units - you have a reason to look into the Gorillapod GoGo.

Great device! Helps in taking night pictures (long shutter exposure), definitely great with taking timed picture shots. You need to look for something to attach it on if you want some height.
