Joby announced a version of its popular Gorillapod tripod that is designed for DSLR and larger video cameras. The Gorillapod Focus is aimed at both pro and amateur photographers. The tripod weighs 1.1 pounds and can support cameras up to 11 pounds.

It ships with a 1/4-20 thread universal camera screw and a 3.8-inch adapter for ball heads. The flexible design allows the tripod to be wrapped around a tree limb and used in other unorthodox situations.

The Focus retails for $149.95 and it measures 11.4" x 3.6" x 3.6". The Focus is the biggest and strongest Gorillapod yet according to Joby. I wonder why they don’t make a taller Gorillapod for use like a normal tripod.
