This so simple that I bet a million people wish they had thought of it. Nobody would carry around a tripod for their little digital camera unless it was something that could fit in their pocket. This Gorillapod has flexible legs that can be fixed into different positions and also wrap around poles, branches, handrails etc... Took it on holiday last week and was able to take group/self photos without having to ask a passer-by to take the picture (they never get it right anyway!). Of course this cheaper version is only good for a recreational size digital camera. I tried it with my heavy SLR and it did the splits very quickly. Well, you've got to try haven't you?

I like the coloured end caps for the legs but this is the most basic tripod!
This tripod does not have a swivel head on top which means you can only video things that are straight in from of the video. although you can slightly angle the view up or down by spreading the tripd legs in different parts you cannot get an acute angle.
Not good if you are doing product reviews for you tube!

And in fact I was very impressed...........until I extended it.
The actual tripod head is really quite good, I was more than satisfied with being able to easily pan to the left and right and switch to portrait.
However, when extended to anything near eye level it really is quite flimsy and is not very stable at all, which seems to me the main purpose of a Tripod? (this does make it very lightweight though)
Therefore it certainly shouldn't be considered for serious amateur or semi-pro Photography.

I was looking for a tripod to take on holiday (alpine walking in Switzerland), so wanted something small & light whilst still being sturdy enough to hold a DSLR rock-steady. Also wanted to avoid those piddley travel tripods that stand a maximum of 15cm tall, and mean that you're either constantly looking for a conveniently situated wall to put the thing on, or you're crawling on your hands and knees just to look through the viewfinder.
The VCT-R100 fulfilled every one of my requirements; It is basic as tripods go, but strikes the perfect balance between size/weight and portability/practicality. And I can still barely believe it was less than £20. Bargain.
