Super Fast Shipping! Item was BRAND new as described August 28, 2008 J. Romaneschi (Valparaiso, IN) Super Fast Shipping! Item was BRAND new as described. This Joby tripod is a HIT!! People were asking where I purchased it from and is a necessity for those with point & shoot cameras!! thanks again
Very Useful When Yuo don't Have an Assistant August 27, 2008 voiceoverthewall.com (United States) Obviously this is not a professional photogrpaher's tool, but it could easily be used by a pro. I found this device to be a very convenient tool when taking photos in odd places. It can grip onto practically anything that you can bend its arms around. The attachements are a nice-to-have feature as well. In general this product is useful when a stadard size tripod is just too large (or positions the camera too high).
Good product! August 23, 2008 Cody Turner (KS USA) I read some reviews saying it was weak and hard to get stable, but I bought it anyway, figuring it would work for what I needed. I am extremely impressed. First off, it's nice and stiff, so it does not sag or bend when you don't want it to. Its grip is amazing. Trees are no problem at all, and I can even get it to stay easily on a vertical plastic pole. I've even gotten it to stay on the end of a desk. Overall, an excellent product. I recommend it for those who need a tripod for random and extreme environments.
COOL GADGETI August 22, 2008 Vernessa J. Lewis (NEW YORK, NY United States) This gadget is primarily for media playback on my iPhone, and sometimes my ipod. Very COOL - I wish it came in pink.
useful for limited settings, but not bad for the price August 21, 2008 almosthappy (San Diego, CA, California) Joby's GP1-M1EN Gorillapod GoGo Flexible Tripod seems like a fantastic idea on paper. I had so much expectations for this little tripod. However, upon receiving the sample unit and taking it on a weekend road trip, I found the reality has fallen slightly short of my high hopes. For starter, as many reviewers have pointed out, this tripod does not have a very sturdy construction. It is extremely light-weight, which means the whole setup (with a camera attached) tends to fall down. My usual camera of choice for casual snapshots is a very compact Casio Exlim, and I found even with this ultra compact model, I have problems of keeping the setup standing up. However, using the unit on uneven surfaces works better than trying to use it on a flat/smooth surface. Another really irritating aspect of this tripod also attributes to its cheap construction: all the joints - which are really the heart and soul of this tripod - tend to be either too tight (at first) or too loose (after a few days of use). Perhaps an unintended usage by the manufacturer, I found myself unable to stop playing with the tripod with my hands! It's not unlike popping the bubbles on a bubble wrap, twisting and bending all the little joints is quite fun, zen-like, and addictive :) In retrospect, that's perhaps how all the joints on my tripod got so loose.
