25k version for me please. I carry a red helium with Angenieux Ez-2 15-45 cinema lens, and also a7riv mounted on top with Zeiss compact zoom CZ.2 28/80mm lens.
I just found your channel and I LOVE it! Excellent review, straight to the point, well spoken and clickbait free. Subscribed.
This answers a lot of questions!! Thank you!
Brilliant video, thank you man… You made that so easy for me!
I just want to say Thank you for all the tips and tricks. I started doing YT videos and when I need help your channel is the one who I always turn to for HOW TO videos! Love the content!! 🙏🏻
My first Tripod , a Joby 3k gorillapod pro, I'm LOVING it so far.
So much information and value. Really saves time for all of us to go through each of them, literally all of the answers are here! Thanks, Sean!!
Just a good vid. Been waiting to buy one of these as I assemble my first kit(no rush as I havent really picked my niche yet or gotten started)-- and this was perfect. Thanks man.
The tilt & pan feature on the 5k sold me thanks I didn't know the 3k pro didn't do that and I was about to buy it. Buying 5k right now! You guys are the best channel for so many things thanks for everything you do!
Wow I just needed a tripod and was looking for the right one. Thank you!
We just purchased a Joby based upon your recommendation in a previous video. We love it! Thanks for all of your solid advice!
Nice! Just what I needed! You are a inspiration for all new youtubers!
I have been seriously searching for the perfect Tripod forever !! Thanks so this 👍🏻
Another great timing video as I just bought a Joby to use not only for vlogging, but also for quick set up videos. So far so good!

This vloga definitely is useful for every youtube users out there wether new or experienced.. thanks a lot !! i just started a channel and I know it will grow with all of this help! THANK YOU

This is great, well-articulated content - thank you!
I had one of the smallest Gorillapods for 6 months and it fell apart. I'm now using a mini tripod that originally had an old telescope on it, 40 years ago..YES you heard me correctly 40 YEARS ago! Things were built to last in those days. It's as good as new!

Yes it was very frustrating. The legs came apart but more important DIDN'T GRIP ROUND POLES. The magnets were great so if you worked off a steel plate it was fine. Cheaper metal CLAMPS are much better.a
Bought a nice dslr, a cheap tripod, and a nice mic. Super excited to start my KZread channel. Thanks for all the tips and content you share to help people get started and improve their own content. 🤙
Lol , I just realized that tomorrow marks a year since you guys gave away a studio set up + a cannon M50 , you guys really helped someone out . Big ups to Think media . Great video by the way .
Thanks, this allowed me to see both the 1k and 3k together and with cameras mounted... just placed my order...!!!
Needed this today
Thanks for this video mate, really helpful!
Another amazing tool! Thx Sean.
Trust me i was waiting for this video about to purchase one.
I recently just bought this tripod for vlogging! I’m glad I made the right choice 😌
Just in case anyone wants one, Amazon, has the 5K RIG kit that includes the accessory kit that has two more flexible arms, two cold shoe mounts, a go Pro adapter, a plate to mount the two arms to, and a strap that can be used to mount the tripod in even more creative ways... And they have the entire package for about $100.00 USD!!! As it is normally $200.00 USD, I grabbed it up as soon as I saw it at that price!
We’re making family videos and never thought we will get to the point we need to invest in items and tools. But, the channel sems to be appreciated so we got to bbuy stuff. This video was helpfull for me to choose the exact tripod i need. Thanks!
An excellent and informative video as ever. Thanks.
Sean has the greatest tech tips
Thank you think media your videos have been really useful ❤❤
Cool tips. I will buy it soon for my vlogging
forever my favorite channel!
Nice video. Everyone uses the Gorillapod. Good grip and versatile. Depending on the product it can hold heavy DSLRs and DSLMs s as well. 👍
Great vid mate. You have planted a want worm in my head for the 3k pro. I have a channel where I explain my own gear and how I use it, but I actually did not know which model GP I actually use each day. Originally with a Canon M50 but more now with the insta 360 onex
Awesome vid Sean! Thanks for sharing! Definitely would love to pick a gorilla pod up sometime, so versatile! Sean if you see this I submitted an application through your website a week or so ago, just wanted to let you know! Have an amazing day my friend😊
wow...thank for sharing. I LOVE it. Currently I'm using Joby GorillaPod 3K Video Pro. Maybe one day, I may buy 3K Pro.
This was a timely video. My little GorillaPod just broke the other day (leg fell apart). It was probably due for an upgrade anyway as I often use a Canon M50 now, but was a bit uncertain which option to choose for the upgrade.

Which gorilla pod were you using previously?
Thanks! Great information!
This is really great! I got my gorillapod 5K rig. And I am dying to try it out!
Wild how this video is 4 years old and I just purchased one, got the 3k on special for $30 and I went back to check it out again because of this video, the price for the just the 3k is $100 original 🥴. Amazing video appreciate the demonstration and material type 🙏🏻😊
wow its really help, the content are very detail and more technical...
I use the 3K for my Canon M50 for the videos on my channel and I can slap pretty much any lens on the front and it still feels solid! Did have the 1K and it was doing me a concern on the regular as it just felt like it was gonna topple at any minute so needed to change it haha upside is I can still use the 1K for lights etc tho🤙
Thanks for the side by side review!! I'm using an a6400 to vlog on a sailboat...and the 3k sounds like the perfect tripod!
Getting that gifted tripod @ VidSummit. Pumped 🤙 Nice work Sean 😎
I have just a basic gorillapod no ball joint no quick release just has a screw in base it only cost me $60 AUD about $40 us dollers there a must-have!!!!
Bought the 1K not knowing what 1k stood for...returning it tomorrow and picking up the 3k Pro. Thanks for the great information!
thanx for the good presentation
Great informative video! I personally use Joby knockoffs before even tho they tend to break after a few months of rugged use; but for what you pay for them, they're well worth it. Nowadays I opted out of those bendable tripods and stuck with those mini tripod legs from gimbal manufacturers like zhiyun/feiyu. They're made of rugged metal, feels more durable than Jobys and can carry a lot more weight. Downside tho is you can't clamp them on railings and/or uneven surfaces.

Crazy thing is that this company is making eVTOLs now.
Joby GorillaPod 3K is very strong and manual to carry out mirrowless camera. I keeper all the time in my backpack and for small camera I used small Manfrotto.
One of these would be great for my channel, I do a lot of things in the woods and on terrain of uneven ground. Definently interested!!
Amazing info thanks alot.
Thank you again Sean for sharing 😊

I picked a Joby Handypod, not flexible but cheap and sturdy enough to support my mirrorless camera, with a ballhead usable at 90°. it also has ergonomic legs for better grip in selfie mode.
Wow i like your new intro.. It's great and tge content is stunn
I use 1k for my Osmo and the 5k for my Canon M50 . Both do a great job at doing what there are made to do.
thank you the video help me to choose them.
I’m loving my 3K pro... I used SIRUI 3T-35K TABLETOP I love also. But I wanted to try the joby and it hasn’t disappoint and I got it for 50% on amazon here in Europe only 49.95€ sale!!! And I’m loving it

Great vidéo Thanks 🙂
Thank you ! 📷
Shout out man this is helpful
Nice video! I hope to grow as a small youtuber with your tips 🔥👍
Thanks for making this Sean! I've lost complete faith in Joby products after going through a bunch of Gorilla pods which don't last in my experience (standard everyday use) - But I may well give the aluminum one a go! Thank you

I hear ya on that. I typically get about a years time out of one of them and then it needs to be replaced because one of the legs will detach. I can click it back in and still use it, but I can't trust it completely at that point.

Did you give it a go? If yes could you let me know what your experience is?
I have BOTH the GorillaPod 1K & the GorillaPod 325 pod (Which I'm giving to a friend for Her to Stream and hold her phone on.) I'm going to get the 3k Myself so that I can use it for my Lumix G7 and the 1K for my gx85. I LOVE Joby's and have had the gorillapod Tripod for Digital Cameras and Camcorders, & the JOBY - GripTight Action Kit Tripod, Amazing tools and I even made a Video on how you can turn your GoPro using a Joby into an AMAZING Vlogging Rig.
i got the 1k for my sony a6400...wish I would've watched this video before! The 3K Pro and the quick release seems to be the way to go! Hate having to constantly screw my camera into the G-Pod!
I think i have the 3 kg one:) It looks so good, and it is much better for me now when im holding the camera.
As a subscriber you have inspired us to start Vlogging, videoing planes take off and land as well visit restaurants in Hawaii. We are beginning. Which Canons on a medium budget do you recommend? Please advise. Thank you.
I prefer the manfrotto pixi tripod.. more easy to use and more safety for my panasonic g80😅
great video!!!

AuthenTech - Ben Schmanke yeah - would have loved to hang! Did you meet Mel from Think Media?
I appreciate this video! QUESTION! Are you able to use the Ballhead X on BOTH the 5k and 3k? I bought the 5k and Ballhead X before they rebranded the tripod names, and am looking to get a smaller gorillapod.
Nice breakdown, definitely helps me figure out which one I really want. Totally off topic, that sweatshirt hoodie has a "Gucci" logo with a stylized "C" in the middle that looks exactly like the Champion clothing logo which I thought went out of business and was located in Norwich, NY. Just curious about that and if there is any connection.
question: can you use this for your iphone too? where do you get the phone mount from?
I had a similar one but broke and I was just looking for a replacement, that helps a lot! Thanks so much for sharing!
Informative video
That hulk edit was funny af🤣🤣
Yeah I was the 1000th like! Love your videos and channel. Looking to level up my KZread channel and grow, and you're a big help!
I have been using Joby but i wish they were taller. When putting them on a table, they are still.so.much shorter than me, i have to crouch down or prop it up on something
just bought the 3k stand only, and used my ball head from my tripod, hope it last a lot of time without getting loose!
Thank you so much!
I hope your links were affiliates because I just ordered the 5k from your description. Thank you!
I ordered today💃💃
Hey Sean, what would you recommend for a Canon M50 with a Boya MM1 and Canon 10-18mm set-up?
What’s your take on the magnetic 325 compared to earlier version w/ quick release? Sharing with iPhone XS Max & Canon G5x MK II on the MeFoto u suggested
I like your TImex marlin reference at 5:34
Which one is the best for a camera, vlogging light and a microphone on top
hi dude which is better for vlogging cameras like sony zv-1 or zv e10? kindly anwer my question!!
I would really like to film some top down diy videos for a KZread channel to promote my Etsy business but I’m not sure how to mount my iPhone to be in a stable position to film my work surface. Could you maybe do a video showing how the products you recommend could be used for top down shots? I’m trying to figure out what to invest in for that purpose.
Hey Thank you for this great Video I use a 5k but I put my own Manfrotto ball-head on the top. With this opportunity i can juse the same mount plate for all my camera equipment. Have a great day and regards from Switzerland. Mathias
Hi! I recently upgraded to an A7iii, and been trying to buy a tripod for it. Which one would you recommend to support the weight of A7iii?
I own the 3k and it does the job. I wouldn’t really go over 4lbs with it. I use the Sony a6400 with the sigma 16mm 1.4. I also keep my camera in a smallrig cage with a wooden handle and wooden grip. My rig is less then 3lbs though so it works just fine. I do like the ball head and quick release better on the 5k though. If price wasn’t an issue, of course I would just buy the 5k, but my 3k works just fine for now.

I have the same set up as you, right down to the cage. Although, I am becoming annoyed with trying to figure out where I like the microphone placement on the a6400. I've tried it out in a few different spots, and just can't settle on a spot that seems to satisfy me yet lol. I like it mounted over on the same side as the mic jack, but I hate how it sticks out to the side. It looks goofy in my opinion, and I prefer it to be up on top of the camera. I'm going to pick up some other mounting options to attach to the cage and see if I like it mounted up top on the same side as the mic jack. I've just been running it in the hot shoe on the camera and not using the flip up screen, because I know sony's auto focus will lock onto me, but I'd still like to check the screen once in a while to see if my exposure changes at all while I'm talking to the camera. Gotta love these 1st world problems we stress over lol.

pure panoRAMa haha, you and I are exactly alike. I’ve mounting the mic in several different spots. I like it mounted on the grip side with the coldshoe mount but the mic cord is so long it’s annoying. But anywhere else it annoys me more so I just kinda settles on that. Plus it acts as something to grip onto while I’m holding the camera with one hand.
I have the canon m50, what would you reccommend?
