The Joby GorillaPod Micro takes the weak link out of using a tripod: You and me. Tripods, even tabletop modes, are infinitely useful but they’re also clumsy and often just something else to carry. Not the Micro 250. This diminutive model is designed to stay on your camera and deploy when needed. Three legs stay neatly together but can be quickly flipped open, providing stability and convenience at… → Read More
Do you spend a lot of time trying to attach your iPad 2 to the limbs of trees, or building elaborate towers on which to perch it? You, sir, could use an accessory stand from Joby to save yourself some trouble. We saw the original iPad flavor versions of these back at CES, and now they’ve done the adjustments to the design so you can get one for your iPad 2 as well. → Read More
Given that Joby has launched their ultra-bendy Gorillamobile Tripod line for just about every iOS device so far, there wasn’t much question as to whether or not they’d make one for the iPhone 4. It just took a bit longer than we might’ve expected. → Read More
Short Version: Joby finally makes a GorillaPod capable of holding the weight of DSLR with a lens. And the Ballhead X isn’t too shabby either. The legs are a bit stiff, but that’s a good thing when you’re holding a high end video or still camera. → Read More

What? Hallmark doesn’t sell any such cards? Okay, Plan B: what better way to celebrate National Photography Month than with a CrunchGear contest! We have three lovely prizes to give away, each to a… → Read More
While we wouldn’t recommend hopping on this bike without lots of padding, this cute creation was made to decorate Joby’s PMA booth. It’s made of the same stuff used to make Joby’s Gorilla gear. The beads, obviously, will fold over and bend into odd positions, wich makes riding this bike that much harder. → Read More

Now they’ve release the GorillaTorch – a super bright LED flashlight mounted atop the iconic Joby bendy legs. But this one adds magnets to the feet, making it even more useful! → Read More
Joby makes Gorillapod tripods, those weird, bendy tripods that can attach to trees and railings and let you get a shot from anywhere. One of the biggest complaints, however, was the inability to pan and tilt your camera while attached to the Gorillapods. The Professional Ball Head is a tripod head for the DSLR Gorillapod – or any tripod for that matter – that offers 360-degree panning… → Read More
