As more travelers take photos and video with smartphones, amateur videographers may look for new ways to improve their media. Enter the Joby GripTight PRO Video Mount and the GripTight PRO Video GP Stand.

These products are designed to increase creative possibilities for any smartphone. The products work with phones of any model to help users take steady videos and motion shots. The Video Mount securely grips your phone and features a locking tilt functionality for hand-free use. There’s also a panning arm that allows the user to smoothly move the device. When not in use, the arm bends down for easy transport.

The stand, like other Joby products, is a flexible tripod that can stand on its own or grip a surface like a rock or tree trunk. The stand can hold up to 500 grams, so it won’t tip over while securing your smartphone.

Overall, this product is a must for smartphone users who want to create professional, seamless motion video, with the ability to smoothly pan through a scene, or even take a time-lapse video without unnecessary shaking or movement.
