Joby Gorillapod SLR-ZOOM (GP3) reviews
- Advantages: a great thing
- Disadvantages: I bought it on Ali Express for 500 rubles !!!!
- Disadvantages: Our salespeople are completely stupid !!!!
Green Eugesha
- Advantages: lightweight, comfortable, compact.
- Disadvantages: somewhat confused by the price.
- Disadvantages: I bought it today. I looked closely at the tripods for a long time and chose a tripod of exactly this shape. It can be used both as a tabletop and attached to many objects when shooting outdoors – on a branch, railings, pipes, inclined surfaces, etc. the bonus program, so the purchase cost me 40% of the cost. Very satisfied.

- Pluses: Small, weighs little. I threw it into my backpack and forgot. It is convenient to shoot from the embankment parapet, from the bridge (you can wrap your legs on the railing).
- Disadvantages: The camera will be very inconvenient without a rotating screen. I agree about the head, it's more convenient. More precisely, I have no idea how you can use it without your head. True, I bought the first one I came across, sawed off a little from the top of the ball attachment and glued the level with superglue =) In general, I gradually come to the conclusion that the device is by and large useless. There are very few places where it can be attached or placed, and it is not always necessary to shoot from a low position. At first I wanted to buy his “younger brother”, but he turned out to be much worse. She trembles very much and calms down for a long time. UPD: as it turned out, this is also a good stand for a tablet =)

- Pluses: Sufficiently high-quality manufacturing, compact. Exotic, raises surprised questions from people. 🙂
- Disadvantages: It is difficult to give the desired position and it is very easy to lose this position. It trembles, you need to put it on a hard surface and be sure to use a cable / remote control – otherwise, after the shutter is released, the tripod may “dance” for some time.
- Disadvantages: The main advantage, of course, is compactness. This tripod can finally be bent with the letter “L” and stuffed into a very small bag. You can unhook the extra hinges and make the tripod smaller / lighter (I'm not sure how large the safety margin of the hinges is and how many such releases they will withstand). Those. it is better to have this gorillipod than to have any of the other flimsy mini tripods or no tripod at all. The tripod legs can be easily wrapped around a branch or a pipe, as is done in many advertising photographs: only there is almost no sense from such a procedure, the whole structure will dangle and shake, just to give a very unusual angle of view under very good shooting conditions or with a fast lens.

- Pluses: Interesting design, flexibility in customization and low weight.
- Disadvantages: My config weighing about 2.2kg holds 4- (nikon D700 + 24-70 / 2.8), i.e. with the declared 3kg, the structure will be extremely unstable. A small Sony camcorder holds well. Overpriced – American brand, but made in China.
- Disadvantages: Thoroughly still to be tested. But the expectations were justified – the pocket will not drag out much, unlike a normal tripod, which you often don’t drag for a long time, but you have to pay for it with height. Update: BH1 head with bubble level has arrived. First impressions are the most positive. the construction with a heavy apparatus has become noticeably more stable. From the fly in the ointment seen: the latch mount between the removable platform and the head is plastic, i.e. longevity is not to be expected. Bottom line: if there is an opportunity to buy with a head off, I recommend going broke.

- Advantages: They gave it to me, I probably would not have bought it myself and would be wrong. Holds my fifty dollar well, but I don't need more. Convenient in that it takes up one compartment for the lens in a backpack.
- Disadvantages: Does not replace a full-fledged tripod with a head, but rather complements it and has its right to life.
- Disadvantages: I use it mainly in the evening, especially when I'm in another city – you won't walk for a long time with an ordinary tripod.

- Pluses: Good thing. Easy to handle my Canon 50D with an 18-200mm kit, which is about 1.5 kg. Not as heavy as conventional tripods. Easily attaches to any post or tree, not to mention normal horizontal surfaces.
- Disadvantages: Missing bubble level ball head. In order to change the slope, you need to tinker with the “tentacles”.
- Disadvantages: The ball head is already on the official website, but has not yet reached Russia. In general, I am satisfied and always carry it in my backpack. The tripod helped out more than once in the evenings.

- Pluses: The original thing. It attracts the eyes of others. There are no other advantages!
- Disadvantages: Fragile, falls apart after several times of use. Suitable only for light soap dishes, a camera weighing 450 grams does not hold well. At a long focus it trembles more than hands.
- Disadvantages: They gave me a present. I would not buy it for any money. And I would not recommend it to others. Sometimes, the truth helped out. But a toy for pampering.
