Joby GorillaPod Original Tripod - Charcoal

Product Information

This screw is the standard one for the bottem of most tripods however if you own a GoPro you will need an adaptor to hold the GoPro on this tripod as no GoPro adaptor is provided. I would trust this device with my camera but be careful not to lose the "Quick release" as it is very small. Or use the Pin Joint Mount to add a GoPro or other Action camera for some sneaky mountain bike trail angles. The rugged construction and minimal form-factor massively lends itself to this visual format, whilst the ability to bring the tripod legs together to form a selfie-stick or mini steadicam is a massive advantage for travelling image-makers on the go. The ball joints are a bit stiff to use however I feel this is because they want to make sure that it is attached and will not fall off so although it is stiffer than I would like i can see why they have done this .

The sheer number of GorillaPods on the market may seem overwhelming, but we are here to help you find the one that is right for you. The adjustable legs allow for unlimited angles and open up unique perspectives for the best content of your life. Our GorillaPods are named after their weight capacity, from the compact GorillaPod Magnetic Mini, Starter Kit, 325 and 325 Magnetic, which all hold up to 325 grams, up to the heavyweight GorillaPod 5K Kit, which holds 5 kilograms (11 lbs) of equipment. The range includes table-top mini tripods, tripods with arms to support lights and other accessories, as well as unique articulated jointed legs to mount your gear anywhere. My only concern is if the joints will remain strong long considering its all made of plastic and so many moving parts.

With so much out there, it is best to have a good understanding of the type of content that you are hoping to produce before diving into the wide world of Gorilla Tripod accessories.
