Works great with the Creative Vado HD
This tripod works great with the Creative Vado HD. Towards the top there is a release switch that will allow you to slide the screw off of the stand. You can then attached the screw more tightly to your camera using a coin. Also this allows to to attach and detach the camera more easily and quickly to the tripod.
I got the one in green and it looks great, very unique. I like its small form factor and how truly flexible every part of it is. One other thing to note is how truly small it is and the box it comes in. This would make a great stocking stuffer.
I would buy it again and I would recommend it for anyone with a pocket camcorder.

this thing is great!
I love this! it is great with my point and shoot camera! This, along with the timer have taken some pretty great shots of my girlfriend and I

Gorillapod
neat ingenious little tri-pod unit for small lightweight cameras. Love the flexibility of the tri-pod.

amazing help
The Gorillapod is so usable for our photos while we are hiking or mountain biking. Now we can get both of us in the shot, and the camera can be attached easily to uneven surfaces with confidence. We use it regularly and appreciate its portability as we thread it through a belt loop type of flap on the canvas camera case. Great invention.
