    Two new tripods from Gorilla Pod.

    Ever find a shot that would look 100% better if you had your camera on a tripod? But you can’t carry a tripod with you everywhere you go – or can you? You can with the GorillaPod Micro 250. This gizmo is so small it can be an “always-on” camera tripod for point-and-shoot cameras. With an adjustable ball-head the GorillaPod Micro 250 offers the stability, range of movement, and versatility of full-size tripods for your point and shoot camera up to almost 9 ounces (250 grams). The GorillaPod Micro 250 can be used to position your camera on uneven terrain. A machined aluminum-positioning ball allows for 36° of movement in any direction to frame a level shot on uneven surfaces while still firmly holding your camera in place. The coated zinc alloy legs weigh less than 1 ounce). The legs quickly lock in place when opened. Colorful rubber foot grips (in your choice of red, blue, or gray) fit discreetly underneath your camera. It's so inconspicuous; you can leave it permanently attached. It’s just 2.6 inches long and 0.7 inches wide. $19.99

    Have a bigger camera too?

    A helpful companion for your compact system camera is the GorillaPod Hybrid. The company says its rock-solid stabilization and precise ball head-enabled positioning allow you to capture professional-quality images without the size and weight of a traditional full-size tripod system. I don’t know about professional quality shots, but I have the earlier model to stabilize my camera in weird places. You can use the two dozen-plugs leg joints to bend and rotate 360° to wrap around objects. They are rubberized ring and foot grips to enhance stability on difficult terrain, so you can place your camera at virtually any angle. Built with Japanese medical grade ABS plastic and German TPE rubber for secure joints that stay firm and grippy after years of shooting. It supports cameras up to 2.2lb (1kg). The slim-line quick-release clip has a bubble level which stays connected to your camera and snaps into the ball head for instant setup and perfectly level images every time. About $40.
