These are excellent mounts for your camera. I’ve purchased multiple mounts to film time-lapse videos of plants growing, and when tightened, they are very stable and can hold large equipment comfortably. The joints do not start slipping over time, which is important when you need the camera to stay in exactly the same position for a long period. These mounts are light enough to carry with you anywhere, but hefty enough to inspire confidence when holding expensive camera gear. Each joint also gives you excellent versatility in mounting your camera however you need, sideways, upside down, or at any angle; these mounts handle it. I will advise you to be mindful of what you attach the mount to. I tightened the clamp a little too much around the wooden shelf in the photo, and it left marks. It wasn’t a big deal for me since I’d rather have marks on a shelf than risk my camera moving or falling during shooting, but it’s worth keeping in mind when mounting these yourself. Overall, the pros far outweigh the cons, especially for the price. If you need a solid, versatile, do-anything mount, this is your product. BUY!

Easy set up, easy adjustment, holds both my Digital Camera or Camcorder firm!

In the end this was totally worth buying. I got it for my external monitor when filming, but there are so many more uses for this in my photography and video making (mic, lights, extra camera...). I can't believe I went so long without knowing this existed. It's quite heavy, but the clamp is firm and when it's all secure, it is happy to hold a DSLR or anything under 1 kilo firmly in place. I'm excited about using this for overhead shots as well as putting the camera on trees when I'm shooting in the wild. Lots of opportunities. That said, there were no instructions on how this worked. I spent three days trying to figure out how to get it to stay in place without being as floppy as a um, very floppy thing. Yes, I know I could have looked it up, but I didn't have internet where I was and not having instructions was a big disappointment. If you get this (and I totally think it's worth it), then look up the instructions BEFORE it arrives.

Suppose to support a 10 lbs 4.5kg loads it doesn't.... might on a static mount. Tried to use this morning on a mobility scooter 10km/hour on a smooth flat sidewalks, no matter how much the locking nut is tightened it keeps slipping and moving, the gimbal and phone weight is 0.7 kg yes only 700grams 1.6 lbs, 16% of maximum weight. Might work for a static mount but not if any vibration or movement of mount. Wanted to use in a car Really not good enough I am asking for a refund.
