ClampPod Pro equipment holders clamp onto almost anything, and are designed to support a wide variety of cameras and photographic accessories up to 2 pounds, at many different angles. Designed to hold compact 35mm SLRs, VHS-C, APS, 8mm and digital camcorders or lighting accessories, the ClampPod Pro is perfect for close-up photography, to take along on vacations, in the car, hiking or whenever a third hand is needed.Its flexible steel neck bends in all directions, and the neck assembly unscrews from the clamp base for compact storage. The ClampPod PRO's heavy-duty spring clamp has offset rubber pads for a secure grip and to protect surfaces, and a keyway opening on the clamp enables use on any vertical surface. A ballhead allows for quick, easy adjustments, and can be removed from its flexible neck for mounting directly onto the clamp. Twin mounting 1/4 x 20 studs allow the use of two flexible steel necks with ballheads for close-up copy lighting.For a complete compatibility list please refer to the original manufacturer's web site.

4 out of 5 stars CLAMP IS GOOD   November 12, 2008
Good clamp, especially since you cannot find this sort of thing anywhere else.

The construction is not that great, but it is still a good thing to have.



3 out of 5 stars It's pretty big   January 14, 2008

Over all I like the clamp it was quite a bit larger than I thought....I wanted to stick it in my small camera bag! I guess it probably did have the measurments on it...I was suprised!


5 out of 5 stars When You Don't Have That Flat Surface   December 17, 2007
This is the only small tripod I could find that uses a `clamp' for those times you cannot find a level surface. It can be clamped vertically to a post, door edge or even a tree, if necessary. The spring clamp is heavy duty, but has rubber pads to prevent any potential damage or scratching. You don't always have a flat surface to film or photograph from. This also holds up to two pounds of weight which will work with most any newer model of camera (not older video cameras). The flexible steel neck makes just about any angle work and it will unscrew for easy packing. Sunpak always seems to have the most `cutting edge' products; even simply ideas like this.



3 out of 5 stars Decent extension arm, poor clamp...fine for light duty   March 3, 2006
 6 out of 6 found this review helpful

Tried this out for in-car use, the spring in the clamp is really weak and slips easily. Arm has decent range of motion, but already has loosened up to the point that it only maintains a position inside a narrow range. Ball seat mount is best part. Overall, if you need a quick clamp to pretty much anything camera mount for static shots, or maybe an accessory mount, this should be fine.
