A tripod with grip

This compact tripod allows your camera to balance on narrow, uneven surfaces or cling to tree branches, light posts and other slim poles, so that you can capture sharper images as you travel. The Gorillapod by Joby has prehensile legs with flexible joints and rubber rings that allow them to easily bend and grip, and rubber, knobby feet that keep them secure even on rough or slanting ground. The tripod is priced from $22.95 to $49.95, and is available at joby.com.
