JOBY GripTight™ PRO 3 GorillaPod®

£86.95

Never know what to get the tech-savvy budding content creator in your life for Christmas? JOBY has you covered, with their GripTight Pro 3 GorillaPod tripod, perfect for attaching your phone to make vlogging a breeze no matter the location.

The tripod kit comes with JOBY’s famed GripTight Pro 3 Mount, which securely holds your phone in either landscape or portrait mode perfect for capturing both long and short-form content. To mount utilises a pinch lock clamp system which means you just have to press it in around your phone, and it's secure and ready to go. I liked how stable it felt, as it meant I didn’t have to worry about my phone moving or falling while trying to capture a shot. This was massively aided by the built-in ball head which allows you to rotate your phone 360° with 8 secure positions to get the best shot possible. The mount also has two cold shoes on the clamp which allow you to attach a light, or microphone should you want to take image quality to that next level or ensure the sound quality is top-notch.

This mount is then paired with the GorillaPod 1K stand, which has three sturdy tripod legs which can be held, wrapped around something for stability, or stood like a more traditional tripod. The legs are built with glass-filled nylon, and high-grade ABS plastic which provides the necessary durability for recording content on the go. You can wrap the legs around a railing, stand it on a wall, or even hold it in your hand knowing that in each position your phone is secure, well-positioned and going to stay in place without damage to the legs in the process.

Ultimately, the GripTight Pro 3 GorillaPod is the best choice for both budding and experienced content creators who desire to film content quickly and easily. The tripod provides all you could need for setting up shots whether at home or out and about. The durability and stability of each component are exactly what we’ve come to expect from JOBY and would make the perfect gift for any content creator in your life this festive season.

Pros:

• Sturdy legs that can be held, wrapped or stood for a range of filming locations
• Easy to use pinch lock clamp design for secure phone holding
• Ballhead for shot stability and perfect angle every time

Cons:

• Designed to hold a phone with a clamp so not suitable for standard cameras
