The legs are made by Joby. Unfortunately, we don't sell the leg segments by themselves. Though it wouldn't be as cool, depending on your project, using bendable coolant hose might work. Or, if you've got Gorillapods you don't want anymore, you could take those apart. However, be aware that since Gorillapods aren't designed to be taken apart, the joints will likely get looser and may even crack. It would also probably make for a very expensive science project.

Just out of curiosity, what sort of things were you planning to make?

Michael Huang replied on December 22, 2009 22:36 to the question "Connecting iPhone to Original Gorillapod" in Joby:

Besides the iPhone 3G/3GS case, we offer a mobile accessory kit consisting of adhesive clips and a suction cup clip, which you would stick to the back of your phone. The adhesive clips are designed to stay on your device permanently, but if removed they shouldn't leave residue.

Does that help?

After double-checking that you're turning the battery cap counter-clockwise, I would suggest using a thick rubber band if you need more grip. Hope that helps!

It's possible that the unit you received is defective. All the joints in the Gorillapod Focus should be very snug, even more so than for the SLR-Zoom.

Unfortunately, the iPhone case is only for the Gorillapod Original/Gorillamobile sized tripods. The case is now available separately on the store http://joby.com/store/gorillapod/orig...

Michael Huang replied on December 18, 2009 21:47 to the question "Ballhead jammed" in Joby:

Sometimes the ballhead can be a little stiff when it hasn't been used. It should turn so long as the knob is loosened first by turning counter-clockwise.

It's here! Get the iPhone 3G/3GS case for Gorillapod or Gorillamobile and your Gorillapod will never be lonely again!

A little birdy told me that your iPhone will soon be able to play with your Gorillapod... We'll be sending out an announcement if/when this happens so perhaps sign up for our new products mailing list

I'm sorry to hear you're having issues. To help us debug this, can you please tell us what version of Internet Explorer you're using? Additionally, if your order is urgent, please send it to info@joby.com, explaining the issue and we'll try to get you on your way!

Michael Huang replied on December 13, 2009 03:38 to the question "the difference between gorillapod and gorillamobile ?" in Joby:

The current Gorillamobile and Gorillamobile for iPhone 3G/3GS include the Gorillapod Original, plus additional clips for hand-held devices, etc. Anything a Gorillapod Original can do, the Gorillamobiles can too.

Michael Huang replied on December 11, 2009 18:21 to the question "SLR accommodate smaller digital cameras as well?" in Joby:

The Gorillapod SLR will work great with smaller compact cameras in addition to lightweight SLRs. So long as there is a tripod hole on the bottom of the camera, the Gorillapod should work fine.

If you'd like to be able to swap between cameras easily, we offer additional clips that you can leave on each of your cameras. The Gorillapod SLR comes with a bubble-level clip.

Michael Huang replied on December 10, 2009 23:30 to the problem "Gorillacam bubble level - iPhone not level" in Joby:

Hi Dale,

Have you tried using the Calibrate button? It's in far right corner of the bubble level bar. After you press the Calibrate button, you'll get a window that asks you to firmly place your iPhone against a level surface before pressing the Calibrate.

Hope that helps!

Hi Gillian,

Just checked the Olympus website for Stylus 1030sw and it seems that your camera weighs 6.3 oz without battery and media card, which means that it's perfect for the Gorillapod Original (max 11.5 oz).

I'm guessing that the 1lb spec for your camera is a shipping weight, including the box. Or perhaps they rounded up?

I'm glad that you're considering a tough tripod for your tough camera. We'd be happy to answer any other questions you have. Happy picture taking!
