Digital Home Thoughts: Gorillas In Our Midst: The Gorillapod and Gorillapod SLR Zoom Reviewed

Something To Go Bananas Over?
I'm happy, overall, with both. They serve the purposes they were meant to, and give you some neat composition options with their ability to grab onto stuff and balance out even on uneven turf (stairs are a good one).

I've found that both of them provide enough stability to hold the camera steady for long exposure shots, and I'm very happy with how convenient they both are to carry.

Without a doubt they're worth the money. You may not be blown away and you may not profess your undying love for them, but you will find more and more creative uses for them, and if you do, you can post them to their flickr group!

If you've tried one and liked it, let me know in the comments. I'm interested to hear what you think. I'm a gadget guy and I love stuff like this, so it'll be interesting to see what everyone else's opinions are!

In the end, it's nice to see something that could easily be dismissed as "gadgety" live up to its marketing promises.
