More impressive than I imagined it would be
I ordered this product to attach an audio recorder to my tripod during the upcoming launch of NASA's Artemis II. Installing the product to my tripod couldn't have been much easier, and the device is capable of holding more weight than I imagined it could. In my photo, you can see the magic arm holding one of my canon DSLRs (T3i) with a dual-battery grip – I'm not sure I'd trust it to hold my camera this way for long, because the adhesive rubber pad in the clamp was beginning to slide, but it was pretty amazing to see it was capable of it. I'm not deducting from my review for the slightly sliding adhesive, because I was testing it in a way that seems too far from the weight category this item is expected to hold - and I'm confident this issue isn't present when only using a phone, action camera, or other lightweight device.Included are a few attachments – one for an action camera, one for holding a cellphone, and a clamp that can be attached to a table or a bar (like handlebars or a tripod). The action camera part is the standard size used on Gopro, and the magic arm will be more than sufficient for holding a small camera like this. The cellphone one automatically grips your phone – you just pull the sides apart and it clamps onto your phone when you let it go. I gave it a good shake, and the phone didn't budge. The arm features a 1/4-20 thread on each end, which is the standard mount thread for cameras.Adjustments are easy, and you can get your camera in just about any position you'd want - but there is a bit of wobble where the clamp meets the arm if you don't really put some effort in torquing the arm into the threads. An allen key is provided, and there are little holes in the mount to allow you to use it as a lever, presumably for this purpose.At the time of writing, the list price is in the $45 range. Initially, I thought this was a bit steep – but the magic arm is a lot more robust than I imagined it would be... Almost the entire body, excluding the grips and rubber pads, is made of metal - and I certainly never imagined it would be capable of holding my heavy DSLR.Overall, a great and functional tool for anyone looking to attach a phone, action camera, or anything with a 1/4-20 thread to a table, tripod, or handlebars.
