I've been taking pictures and filming for years, and during this time, a silent truth has prevailed in my accessory case: The most inconspicuous equipment often determines whether a shoot works or not. Super Clamps, i.e. these universal clamp holders, are included. I've used models from other manufacturers so far — and have been using them here for a few days now, both in the home office and outside.

The set consists of two clips, each unit with a maximum opening width of 60 mm. That sounds like little at first, but in practice it covers an astonishing amount: tabletops, shelves, the stand of my floor lamp in the office, a branch during an outdoor shoot — no problem at all. According to the manufacturer, the clamp itself only weighs 125 grams, which I think well, it is very easy to hold anyway.

What really surprised me is the T-shaped latch handle. Sounds technically unspectacular at first, but it makes a noticeable difference when you open the clamp with one hand and position the microphone or the small monitor at the same time with the other. Anyone who films a lot solo knows what I mean — every move counts.

The Magic Arm itself has 1/4" threads in several positions, which allows a wide variety of devices to be attached. I attached a small on-camera monitor with it, and the connection was clean and wobble-free. Even a lightweight smartphone can be easily pinched thanks to the included mobile phone holder — handy when you want to keep an eye on a second camera perspective or an app at the same time.

The rubber or silicone pads on the clamping surface look simple at first glance, but they do their job: no scratching, no slipping. Once tightened, the whole thing lasts, even if the spaniel trudges into the office and waves his tail against the table.

But I have to mention two small restrictions: For really heavy devices such as a full-grown DSLR with a lens, I would not use these clamps — that is well below the reasonable load limit. And the build quality is good, but you just notice that you don't have any professional studio equipment in front of you. At 19.99 euros for two pieces — as of March 2026 — this is a completely fair expectation. The price is actually very attractive for this combination of clamp, magic arm and mobile phone holder, and the price-performance ratio is right.

This product was made available to me as part of the Amazon Vine program, but this does not affect my rating in any way.

My personal conclusion: 5 out of 5 stars. If you're looking for flexible clip holders for lightweight equipment — microphones, monitors, lights, smartphones — this is a solid set for a very reasonable price. For heavy loads, opt for more stable alternatives. Top quality - as is often the case with K&F - and therefore recommended.
