Joby Gorillapod Focus Tripod With Ballhead X Review

Filed under: Gadgets

The problem with reviewing a tripod for your camera, is that you can't actually take a picture of it with your good camera, if it is seen mounted with your good camera. I realized this dilemma late in the game, so you'll have to take my work for it when I say the Gorillapod can hold a heavy dSLR camera properly. This is actually two products you see before you. The Joby Gorillapod Focus Tripod meant for dSLR (or any camera or camcorder), and then the add-on Joby Ballhead X adjustable mount specially made for the Gorillapod Focus. These are professional-grade, highly flexible (literally) tools for mounting and stabilizing a camera or similar equipment with the same universal mount. Joby got famous from the original Gorillapod. It was a simple tirpod with Dr. Octopus style tentacle feet that could bend and wrap around things. Making it quite literally, the most flexible-bendable, go anywhere tripod ever.
