Joby just posted a video and I’m now getting one. lol
The Joby looks cool but it just doesn’t work very well. If you have a pocket video camera, odds are you want to shoot video on the go. You probably don’t have a flat or stationary object to attach the tripod. Even if you did, the Joby does not pan smoothly. You need to hold the legs down and pan — and even then it’s hard to keep it smooth. Finally, you have a pocket video camera because it fits in your pocket. The Joby Gorillapod video will not fit in your pocket unless you’ve got a very big pocket — or willing to put up with some significant discomfort. To get much steadier shots in all situations, I have a readysteady (readysteadyvideo.com), which stabilizes the camera when you’re shooting handheld video and doubles as a monopod.(And the readysteady really does fit in your pocket)
