The Joby GorillaPod 5K Video PRO includes a fluid video head that together with the multi-function GorillaPod mini tripod supports up to 8.8 lb payloads. It allows you to mount a wide variety of camera setups with the convenience of the GorillaPod's articulating capabilities.
The fluid head features a pan bar, a quick release camera plate, bubble level, and multiple points of adjustment. An articulating extension arm, similar to one of the legs of the GorillaPod, is additionally included and attaches into a 1/4"-20 accessory mounting thread on the fluid head. The arm allows you to attach lights, mics, and other accessories to complement your camera and allow for a more complete setup.
