Versatile articulated arm with universal mounting bracket
This set consists of three neatly finished aluminum parts: a flexible articulated arm, a mounting bracket and a mobile phone holder. The Amazon product page shows other well-illustrated applications, such as the placement of microphones, LED or flash lights, and colored filters for lighting effects. The flexibly adjustable articulated arm with its 1/4 inch thread provides connection for additional equipment. Practical: The handy clamping screw not only locks the position of the arms, but also the alignment of both 1/4 inch ball heads with just one turn.
The load capacity is specified as 2 kg. This should be sufficient for mobile LED lights or microphones. However, whether you want to put this weight together with the leverage of an extended articulated arm on a camera's hot shoe seems only conditionally recommended.
The term “Super Clamp” was originally coined by Manfrotto for a heavy clamp used in professional studio use. K&F uses it for a significantly smaller clamp. The grip on pipes is very good, but less convincing on flat, thinner objects — such as a simple shelf board. There, only the narrow front edges of the clip grip, which also have no rubber coating and can therefore leave marks on sensitive surfaces. Due to the comparatively low depth, the clamp also does not hold on table tops with heavily rounded edges. On the other hand, two universal screw holes (1/4 and 3/8 inch) on the back, which allow the articulated arm to be connected and open up additional options for mounting the clamp, are positive.
I use the combination at the studio table for product photos to place small, lightweight effect lights. In this scenario, the clamp can also be used without restrictions. The articulated arm, for example, carries an LED flashlight in an additional holder, which can be easily aligned and fixed to the toggle screw with a handle.
