Very Cool

Strengths: Strong enough for my Samsung GX10, grips to poles, grippy feet

Weakness: No ball head, adapter can get lost, no wingnut to get the screw turned

This is a really nifty tripod it can hold my Samsung GX10 with a telephoto lens no sweat if I position everything right. I wish the screw removal thing had a wingnut so that it didn't need a coin to undo. Also a ball pivot head on it would be nice but good luck that ever happening. Otherwise with it's nice pole-wrapping abilities and regular short-tripod functioning, this things is nifty and fun...

Joby Gorillapod SLR-Zoom

Strengths: size, light-weight, reliable. I can go anywhere with it in my camera bag.

Weakness: no quick release

Bought this for my Europe trip. It fits the side pocket of my KATA H-14. The weight and size are just right for trips that I can't take my full-size tripod. It feels stable with my Rebel XT and 70-200 IS. The legs won't bend for that setup. It's a nice product. The only drawback is the Zoom version has no quick release like the smaller versions.

Incredibly Cool Tripod

Strengths: Light, compact, versatile, sturdy

Weakness: Adapter screw easily lost, no level

This is exactly what I was looking for: a light, compact tripod that's strong enough to hold onto my Canon 5D and EF 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 DO IS USM lens. While this will never replace my full-size Bogen-Manfrotto behemoth, this will work great for lighter, extended traveling. I find I often miss shots or am forced to shoot at ridiculously high ISOs simply because I really hate carrying around a...

Great gadget

Strengths: It does the job in area where tripod is not allowed. It does hold an XTI + 24 -105 EF lens.

Weakness: Doesn't hold strong enough when taking night picture. Winds and slight slippage will cause your picture unusable when taking picture with slower shutter speed.

I bought this for my SE Asia/Japan trip. Everywhere I went, there were people("tourist) to help me take picture... When I was in Japan and I felt a bit safe to take this baby for some night picture, it fails me. It didnt do the job because of winds and slippage plus slow shutter speed.

ultra configurable and versatile tripod for SLR with...

Strengths: versatile, light, configurable many different ways, strong enough to hold DSLR with zoom lens (up to 6 lbs), rubbery feel has good grip even on smooth surface

Weakness: no quick release plate, bulkiest of the "flexpods"

I have a Nikon D80 DSLR with a 18-200mm zoom lens. So I wanted a "flexpod" that can handle up to 7 lbs. This gorillapod works great and can hold my DSLR with zoom lens easily. I also use it for my compact Casio digicam and also my compact Canon camcorder. I have used this as a regular tripod on the ground or table, wrapped it around a sign post, and a tree branch. You can't do these with a...

Strong enough for a 40D

Strengths: Sturdy construction. Goes anywhere and grips almost anything.

Weakness: Hard to pack in my gear bag.

I bought this product for a recent cruise that I took in the Carribean. I wanted to be able to have the flexibility to mount my DSLR on various surfaces to get pictures with myself and my wife in them. This product did not disappoint. I was able to wrap the legs around posts, set it on rocks to level the camera and place it almost anywhere. I am also very careful with my electronics and was...

Great little tripod

Strengths: Flexible, easy to carry.

Weakness: A little bit too short. Missing a bubble level and a ball head. A little expensive.

Amazing! Especially once you feel you can trust it with your expensive digital SLR (Canon digital SLR with 50-250mm zoom). Easily "grips" to poles and fences, very convenient to put on rocks, branches, .... It's the perfect companion to a hiker who wants to take pictures, or a tourist in a city because of its light weight. It's also very stable, once you attach it to something. My only complaints...

Quite a useful contraption

Strengths: Grip, finger-like grasp, strong.

Weakness: None.

The little contraption is quite a useful one. I bought this for my older sister to use with her camera. It comes in handy when you want to snap a shot of yourself that doesn't show your arm in. You don't have to worry about finding a level area that will still allow for your head to show as well! I would recommend it to anyone with a big camera who is looking for new, creative ways to snap shots...

Crazy but useful tripod

Strengths: 1. Flexible for all occasions 2. Solid build 3. Takes more weight (than before)

Weakness: No plate design, takes time to put on/off.

Two years ago, I bought the original gorillapod from Joby and it was great. However, the original one was too thin and could not take weights more than a pound. I had no choice but ended up selling it on ebay. A few years after, Joby now comes up with a new one (this one) that offers better build and better weight capabilities. This SLR-Zoom version takes more than 6 pounds of weight and the grip...

Camera Labs – Joby Gorillapod SLR Zoom review

The first time you wrap the legs around a pole and realise the Gorillapod isn’t going to fall, your approach to photography changes. You end up examining your surroundings for things you could attach the Gorillapod to, and in almost every situation, there’s a nearby tree, fence, railing, rock, or even the back of a chair which could become a willing accomplice. During our time with the...
