Creator stories, practical guides, and ideas for getting more from your gear.
While phone tripods prioritize portability and quick setup, camera tripods offer superior load capacity and stability. Compare both to find your ideal fit.
Shift your height, distance, and perspective to instantly elevate flat shots. Master low-angle, POV, and natural framing techniques for dynamic footage.
Lock your phone to smooth glass or tile for steady solo shots. Learn how to secure a suction tripod, pick the right surfaces, and nail dynamic angles safely.
GuidesFilming yourself while hiking alone is one of the more specific problems in solo content creation. You have no crew, no flat ground, and no control. This is a practical guide covering the JOBY gear that actually works on hiking trails, like GorillaPod and its flexible legs, and how to use them to get the best footage possible.
GuidesSelfie sticks, phone tripods, and phone mounts all hold your phone, but they cover very different shooting situations. JOBY matches five of those scenarios to the right phone stand for each one, from solo hands-free filming with TelePod® Mini to mounting on nearly any outdoor surface with PodZilla® Octo. A side-by-side comparison table and nine FAQ answers are included to make the final call easy.
