Gorillacam is a neat little iPhone photography app, and combined with Joby.com’s GorillaMobile tripod (pictured below) for mobile devices, you can have a lot of fun photo sessions. Some of your pics might even come out looking reasonably professional. Don’t believe me? Check out the iPhoneography.com website in general, but specifically look at some of the iPhone photography work shown there.

Now about Gorillacam… It’s packed with features. You can set the “bubble” feature to get a carpenter’s level accuracy about your camera position. (See the very top of the image above to see the yellow/green bubble.) Turn on the grid feature to pull off better photo compositions. Want to take a group pic with you in it? Use a GorillaMobile or other tripod and the Gorillacam self-timer feature. You can also do multi-frame “bursts” and set the interval (in seconds) between pics. This is great for time-lapse photography of slow-moving objects, or even to create stop-motion videos. (Just remember to disable your iPhone’s auto-screen save so that it doesn’t turn off in the middle of your photo sessions.)

Not bad at all for a free app. I think I’m impressed enough to buy a GorillaMobile tripod for my iPhone 3GS. The hefty price of US$39.95 seems worth it, given how flexible this tripod is (just like the original Gorillapod). You can attach to all kinds of objects.
