Ready, Steady, Shoot

A steady tripod for your camera can make the difference between a great shot and a blurry mess. Unfortunately , in the era of ultralight travel, most of us don´t want to carry a heavy traditional stand, and mini versions usually aren´t flexible enough.

Enter the Gorillapod, a moldable mini-tripod that can wrap around tree branches, hang from doorknobs and lampposts, or perch steadily on jagged boulders.

They come in three sizes, from tiny pocket cams to full-scale SLRs with zoom lenses and a standard threaded attachment makes it easy to connect and remove the Gorillpod from your camera.
