Title: Not doing well over time
Review: I've had this (Gorillapod GP2-E1EN for SLRs) for 2.5 years now. It's been used occasionally, never abused, and at first did pretty well. Over time, several joints appeared to be looser than the rest. I thought it was just wear, but recently looked closely and saw that the black plastic around the circumference of the loose sockets was cracked. I removed those segments, and now have stiff legs again, but the topmost joint (the bottom of the clamp base) is also cracked, so it will no longer hold up the weight of my SLR, even with no lens.This is a weak design, and I'm hesitant to buy a new one unless they've acknowledged this issue and improved it. This one will now be relegated to use on small point and shoot, and maybe hold a strobe.
Is the review positive or negative?
