Comments about Joby Joby Gorillapod Mini Tripod / Grip for Point & Shoot Cameras, Supports 11.5 Ounces, Black/Gray:

This is one of those "I'm glad someone finally invented it" products. Instead of balancing your camera on a stack of books for that quick family portrait around the fireplace, the Gorillapod works like magic. And you don't have to drag out that big, bulky tripod. Wonderful!

Comments about Joby Joby Gorillapod Mini Tripod / Grip for Point & Shoot Cameras, Supports 11.5 Ounces, Black/Gray:

I bought this for my fiance for her to use in stop motion animation. It's hard to get the thing level and the grips don't always stick. Still, it was cheap, but I wonder If I should have just gotten a small tri-pod.

Small & light, easy to pack, so you can have camera support when you need it. Good for low light and macro photography. Easy to bend & adjust. Since it's not stable, use your camera's self timer to reduce movement.
