Sensational! Forget all tripods for compact cameras. This little 'thing' is so small, light and especially souniversell use that anyone who owns a compact camera and wants to set a tripod not avoid the Gorillapod Magnetic. Just one example: Have so a motorcycle video shot in the Alps and it just made my camera with the Gorillapod firmly on the radiator hose. There is always something in the vicinity where this stand tripod, cling or can moor with magnetic feet.
