Hi
I'm on the market for a very small tripod to put in my photo bag so that on the occasion I'd need a tripod I do have one. I do not have the money for a Carbon Fiber tripod and a monopod is out of the question since it'd be used for mainly long exposures... I also already own a full size tripod, albeit ****ty but heavy and too big.
I'm looking at the Joby Gorillapod. Or the cheap small optex kind available for 30$ with a basic head...
Now the thing I'm wondering is how useful would the Gorillapod be over the "standard" small tripod?
Anyone who used the 2 who could chime in for some hands-on experience would be very appreciated
