While it cannot replace a tripod, the small and easily portable UltraPod II can fold up to fit in your pocket and goes just about anywhere. When you need stablity for that long exposure or want to get yourself in the photo, this little bad boy is just the ticket. You can bring it into places they don't normally allow tripods, and the velcro strap lets you attach it to fences or trees for more point of view options.
For the price, it is truly a great deal. I humbly think every serious photographer, amerature or pro, should have one.

I bought this because my Gorilla Pod was too flimsy to hold my Canon Powershot TX1 camera.
I really like this tripod. It is very light, holds your camera very securely. It has nice long legs for added stability, but they aren't too long and can fit into a pocket easily.
The double-elbowed ball-top allows for a huge variety of different positions to mount your camera so it's level, no matter what surface you put it on. No adjusting leg lengths or anything.
The velcro strap can be used to strap this on to a variety of things, like branches or sign posts, etc... And with the swivelling ball elbows, you can actually use this with your tripod strapped onto a vertical or horizontal branch or post. Depending on how you use it, you might have to mount it on the side of the sign post, just experiment a little and you'll get it.

When I ordered this tripod, I though it would be flimsy, since it's made of plastic... but it is quite sturdy, actually. Get this one instead of the original Ultrapod, which is not as stable. I've used this with my Canon A75 and Canon A630, and I can put them in portrait mode without any problems. By the way, if you're going to use this on the floor, better get yourself a camera with a vari-angle LCD!
It's quite a pity that this tripod is not available directly here. But you can do a web search to find it.

Strap it to a tree, put it on a rock, set it and forget it.
I like this over the mini tripods with magnetic feet. This product is especially made for the outdoors where you cannot find a magnetic surface space. Read more

Okay but not really so great for DSLR
I like the idea very much, but was mislead by many positive reviews. The thing is relatively well made but too feeble for DSLRs IMHO. Read more

Almost Perfect - Works pretty well!
I've been looking around for a portable tripod that I can use for our trip to Disneworld. I was initially considering one of the gorillapods or a lightweight 12"+ standard tripod. Read more

Versatile, affordable travel tripod for light-to-mid-weight cameras.
I've been through a couple of these tripods. I mostly lose them, rather than break or ruin them. They're great little things to have on the run. Read more
