My girlfriend and I are doing quite a bit of traveling, therefore taking a lot of photos. Many times I use the timer to get pictures of the both of us; however, dozens of photos were tilted pretty bad because the surface I would sit the camera on was usually a rock or something similar. After rotating and cropping, we were losing a majority of the shot.I found this product while shopping accessories for my Sony Cybershot. We just took it on a trip to Tasmania and it was great to have. It's easy to fasten into the bottom of the camera and can position the camera on just about any surface.The only problem I've encountered as yet is at the base where the tripod screws in, if turned at the certain angle, the tripod will come off, leaving only the screwed-in base attached to the camera. There's a locking/un-locking mechanism at this point; however, the device you turn to lock or unlock continues to turn all the way around the base. Maybe I am not using it properly or haven't figured it out.Other than that, we are in love with it and it works great for my Cybershot. We use out camera for just general everyday shots and outdoor shots during traveling, so the tripod is perfect for those environments. Great price as well. I feel like it's already paid for itself on our first trip.

Lets face it the idea of having a full sized tripod for a compact camera kind of defeats the whole purpose of having a compact camera. There are regular smaller tripods but the problem with them is you have to have a mostly flat surface to play the tripod on. When you are out and about you may not have a ton of selection of such surfaces to set up with. So this tripod comes in very handy as it has bendible legs that can be wrapped around things. So you can securily set up the camera on things that normally would be very unstable like for example the top of a orange safety cone or on the railing of some of those 2 story side stairs you see like at churches and what where it would be to risky to set the small camera on the side of the railing as you climbed up it as the vibrations might knock the camera off the edge but with the gorillapod its easy to set up! it also works great on tree branches and I even managed (once) to wrap it around one of those fancy street light posts. It provides for much more creative options expecally if you are out and about its lightweight and easily fits into the pocket. (really great for making video clips of yourself when you do not have a second person to hold the camera) so you can be your own one -man (or women) camera "team" :-). For those with bigger cameras they provide other larger versions that can also work.One reviewer said it was really hard to move the tripod legs to wrap it around things. I have fine motor skill issues and i have had little trouble in manipulating the legs it does take a little effort sometimes but i had no problems with it.Great for anyone with a smaller camera i use it mostly for video but i suppose with the 30 second timer you can easily use it for self pictures as well :-).a simply must have!
