The new Gorillapod Video Pro takes travel filming and vlogging to a new level with fluid pan and tilt control, with the same strong, trusted construction.

Whether you’re out and about shooting video on the go, capturing shots from hard to reach angles, or an avid vlogger producing content, Gorillapods have been the ideal accessory to a camera. Joby have now added a smooth fluid head and accessory arm to the latest Gorillapod Video Pro models, giving further creative control when out filming.

Joby has included some additional accessory mounts, one of these extended cold shoe mount that can be used to mount a microphone or small light to the setup, for achieving higher quality sound or illuminating subjects in low light. In addition to this is, a small magnetic clip is located on the pan arm, this can be used to mount a controller or smartphone to the Gorillapod. A small leveling bubble is built into the video head, so you can tell whether the tripod is balanced correctly.

The new Gorillapod Video Pro models will also have a stronger payload, capable of carrying cameras and accessories up to 3kg and 5kg respectively. This is ideal for vloggers or travel filming when using action cameras, all the way up to mirrorless and DSLR’s too. The Gorillapods design is remaining strong and sturdy, for filming on a flat surface like a tripod, or wrapping the legs around a support for more creative control.
