    This brand has made a good name for themselves with a quality product. Unfortunately mine was unusable after a couple weeks. The plastic maneuverable balls that clip together lost their durability and would not stay in place at all.

    I use the gorillapod to mount a video camera to my treestand when hunting. It works well as a tripod to use when not on the ground, and mounts to my treestand easily. I wish it would grip a bit tighter so I could move the camera without loosening the tripod legs, sometimes resulting in a slanted video shot.

    Had an different-style older unit that didn't have the rubber-grip legs like this one. Also, this new one has a quick release from the camera and that's a great feature, i.e., don't have to screw tripod into camera each time want to use it and unscrew it afterwards.

    recently purchased this tripod for GoPro video camera, and am loving the performance!! the only reason i didn't give it full 5 stars is that the tripod is still quite stiff to manipulate after 10+ hours of use. overall a really good tripod, even with the stiffness!

    I really like the pod. It's helpful to use when you want a full picture of you and a friend and you're hiking. The one thing I will say is that I'm always nervous that the camera will slip out and fall. It's never happened yet though

    This is great to carry in your pocket, or bag for small camera use. I have a Sony A600, and with the small lense on it, it will barely hold the camera up, but it will work....

    Bought this so I can use it as tripod and handgrip for my Sony X3000. It works great. It can cling to many things and hold in place. Only thing I have an issue with is that the little pods can detach if pulled back to far.

    I use this on a MacBook Pro while it is docked to multiple monitors at my desk, and it works very well. It does not have great low light ability, and the audio is terrible, but just for a normal video conferencing it is great.

    I purchased this Joby Gorillapod to use with my Tascam mini recorder. It was recommended by a guy on a forum. It works great with my Tascam. It is well made. Very good quality parts. The clip is well machined. I would highly recommend this product.

    Good product, but I believe Best Buy needs to lower the price on it a little. I found it cheaper on other websites after I bought it. It's great for mounting small audio and video equipment in odd places.

    This is a great tripod. The articulations allows it to be placed almost anywhere. Not too expensive & definitely rugged. And it didn't hurt that it was on sale. A definite buy for anyone seeking a ac reasonable tripod.

    I actually bought this as a gift for my dad. He researched and asked for it for Christmas. It works great with cameras. I'm looking into getting the version that works with smart phones.

    Great little tripod for the price. you can put it anywhere, whether its on a stable base or on something that isn't. Can change the angles easily with the numerous links in each of the 3 legs. Love it!

    Very nice and handy, I love when you can adjust so easy when the surface is not so straight. I can also loop to a bar but got me cautious too.

    Bought this as a gift for my wife who is becoming more consumed by photography. While it was smaller (shorter) than I expected, she is quite happy with it.
