There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
Tripods and monopods came with various trade-offs. I found this clamp and bought it on the basis of both the specifications and the reviews. It can be used for a range of things, and has a supplementary screw mount as well as the stud. But I only use the stud and for my camera equipment.
Not all things have degrees of goodness. They either completely work or they completely don't work. This is something that works 100%.
Italian made. A simple but high quality industrial standard of build and materials. A good instruction leaflet, in case you lose your intuitive powers.
It's a little chunky to fit in a pocket and, according to specs, weighs 1.2 pounds. So, if you pack it it in a camera case with lenses etc., make sure they are protected from it.
The jaws open to a max capacity of 1.25 inches. Without the wedge adaptor - but with care - I managed to secure it to a 2.6 inch board and again to a 3/8 inch thick flange. And, of course, it will accommodate a pipe, or similar shape, up to at least 2 inch diameter. When you tighten them, take care that you don't crush something.
The stud holds the camera about an inch above the clamp. For me, that was enough to clear any obstructions.
One end of the stud has a standard quarter-inch thread for your camera etc.. The other end is hexagonal to mate with the clamp. The clamp has a quick-release press-in knob and a well-sized thumbscrew to secure the stud completely.
So, you can remove the camera and stud to rotate them or stow them; that's a form of quick release, if you're happy with the length of the stud in the camera. However, I've used a ball head and quick-release plate - both Cullmann - for over 20 years, so I wanted to transfer them to this clamp. They did. The whole setup is as good as it gets. There are other adaptors and accessories that you could use to mount camera, flash, reflector, etc. simultaneously.
The thumbscrew also secures a removable wedge, which fits into one jaw of the clamp and turns it from something to use on a pipe to one on, e.g., a tabletop or plank.
I had a minor quibble with the thumbscrew. It can get in the way of your fingers when securing the clamp to an object. But it's not impossible to deal with; I soon adapted to it. A little more thought at the design stage would have avoided this.
You can use the clamp anywhere there's a lump of the right dimensions. I've used it on a table top, deck rail, car steering wheel, branch, chair leg, door, etc. This clamp is as reliable and immovable as the thing you secure it to. No duck tape required unless it gives you pleasure.
I wish I'd bought one sooner, and recommend it without hesitation.
I purchased 2 units of the Manfrotto super clamps, to attach several types of equipment to the Manfrotto AutoPole 2 that I own as well.
The clamps are made from a solid aluminum and offers a solid grip. According to the manufacturer, the max. weight limit for this clamp is 15 kg - So far, I hung with it mostly LED lights, and it held them firmly.
The clamp is padded from the inside, so when it surrounds the Manfrotto Autopole 2 that I attached it to, it doesn’t scratch the Autopole.
The jaw opening range of this clamp is 0.5” - 2.1” (1.3 cm - 5.3 cm) which is relatively big and makes it easy to fit this clamp with various setups.
I purchased the clamp along with a metal stud, that is useful and durable, but I was a bit surprised to learn that it shows marks from the screw of the items I attached to it. Since it’s a metal stud (and not a cheap one), I thought it will not show any scratches or marks. But so far, at least it didn’t bend inward, like a cheap aluminum stud. You probably will need the metal stud, so I recommend getting it as well, as the super clamp is sold either with or without it.
Overall, the setup of my equipment looks great and seems to be in its place thanks to the Manfrotto super clamps, so I’m comfortable with it and can sleep well at night and it won’t fall on my head, so it was worth spending the extra bucks on the more familiar brand and start working.
Please note I attached to this review screenshots + a video I made about my experience with the super clam.

I am planning to fix it on the anti roll bar of the open Gypsy jeep and with the Wimberly gimble head attached to my Nikkor 600 mm super tele lens,it should give an excellent shooting experience for the next Tiger Safari .
The standard stud is a must,otherwise how does one attach it to the ball head ?
