JOBY GorillaPod 1K Flexible Mini-Tripod
Boasting remarkable versatility for supporting your gear, the GorillaPod 1K Flexible Mini-Tripod from Joby has legs made up of several joints that allow you to wrap it around objects and adapt it for use in uneven ground. With a load capacity of 2.2 lb, it can reliably hold equipment such as flashes, video lights, and most mirrorless cameras. The notably compact construction of the tripod, featuring a height of 8.3" and weight of 5.1 oz, makes it easy to store or carry it while traveling.

To help improve its grip and stability on unstable surfaces, the joints and feet of the GorillaPod 1K are rubberized in certain areas. The rest of the tripod is made of stainless steel and a proprietary ABS plastic designed to provide durability and stable performance. Featuring a 1/4"-20 screw for mounting, the stand can be used directly with your gear or attached to an optional ball head for further shooting capabilities.

  • Can be used with cameras, lights, speakers, and any other gear weighing up to 2.2 lb that is compatible with its standard 1/4"-20 screw mount
  • Flexible jointed legs allow you to secure your equipment to most surfaces
  • Compact with a weight of 5.1 oz and height of 8.3", can be transported in a small bag or easily carried in your hands or pocket

JOBY 1K Reviews

Useful mounting option for cameras or accessories

By Glen

Very stiff upon arrival, but the legs become more flexible with use. This allows small cameras, lights, or other accessories to be mounted in areas where regular stands can't go.

Why did I wait?

I resisted getting a Gorilla Pod for so long bc I thought they'd be annoying to use. I didn't understand the hype. I used fixed leg mini tripods and cheaper versions, but this went on a super sale so I decided to try and wow now I see why they're so popular. They are much more stable than I thought, pretty easy to use and can get so many more camera angles and heights than a traditional fixed leg tripod. Glad I took a chance
