Getting the best photographic\/video shot is often about being the in the proper position.\u00a0 Once you\u2019ve got the position, it\u2019s now about getting a solid steady stream of video and that usually requires a big bulky tripod. Not so with the Joby Action Clamp and Gorilla Pod Arm<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This pocket-sized camera mount is a blend of genius and utility. Super lightweight, there\u2019s no reason to not have this in your camera bag at all times. You\u2019ll be amazed at all the times this comes in handy.<\/p>\n

\"Joby<\/a>

Joby Action Clamp and GorillaPod Arm<\/p><\/div>\n

The jaws open to 1-7\/8,\u201d so it\u2019s big enough to clamp to countertops, desktops and the side of any open door. There\u2019s a slot in the upper jaw which helps the grip if attaching to a round bar. Each jaw is covered with a nice thick rubber pad so you won\u2019t scratch fine furniture.<\/p>\n

The jaws will also quickly slide down to zero inches so you can attach it securely to street signs, corrugated guard rails, wrought iron fences, your open car window, skateboard, etc. Heck, if you need to, take off your shoe and it\u2019ll clamp to that. No more reasons for taking wiggly, hand-held shots.<\/p>\n

The short, typical Gorilla jointed-arm screws onto the clamp, either top or bottom for maximum flexibility.\u00a0 Buy two and you can clamp two cameras on one Action Clamp. Bend it anyway you need and you\u2019re ready to attach your camera.<\/p>\n

The kit comes with a threaded tripod adapter for a GoPro camera or directly screw your video or still camera onto the 1\/4×20 threaded post.\u00a0 This won\u2019t hold your heavy DSLR camera, but it\u2019s ideal for all compact cameras and small video camcorders.<\/p>\n
