5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely Durable! 11/10
Fantaseal has done it again matching brilliant innovation with a high quality product. This mount is insanely durable for the price and what it is. I've had mounts that used these joints, but none came close to just how strong this one is. Past mounts couldn't handle sudden forces or bumps when secured at the ball joints. However this one took some serious elbow grease from me trying to force it to move when tightened! The meshed teeth design for the arms were out of the question in terms of budging. Once tightened down, I couldn't move it with all my force! 10/10 for strength of this mount.In regards to the accessories, I absolutely love the Super Clamp and the high torque screws! The clamp has no wiggle in it and has a nice rubber padding on the clamp side. There's a wide angle that it can reach that can fit most reasonable objects for clamping to. Fantaseal's torque screws are one of the many reasons I love them. The torque screws let you really....well...torque down the screw much easier than a regular gripped screw.Finally, the phone mount has another innovative design that makes it even more versatile! The rubber tab at the end makes it very easy to pull the bar up to slide in the phone. What makes the adapter so unique though, is that this one has an adjustment screw to make the adapter extend wider incase your phone is just a bit too large. A great idea that solves a common problem!This mount is another great product from Fantaseal. I am yet to be let down by their products and am always certain that it will be a quality piece of equipment for a great price. If you are commonly on the move recording or struggle finding a way to mount your camera around a rounded object, this is a great option that I would highly recommend. Definitely get your money's worth!
5.0 out of 5 stars Quite Impressive Until It Broke 5 Minutes After Unboxing...
Edit: I've since purchased additional arms and have had no problems with them, so I've updated my review below. First is my initial review (in quotes), then my update."I was quite impressed with the apparent quality of this arm right up to the moment that I tightened up the knob to lock everything down. Something popped and now the top is loose; I can literally pull the thing apart; a little steel bar inside the black tubing slides right out. Now I am a bit less than impressed..."Update:I've since purchased another one and had ZERO issues with it, so that first one was just a lemon. I liked the second one so much that I bought another... and then another... and then one more. I use two on my bike (one for a keyboard and one for my phone), one in the car, and one for my phone on the headboard in the bedroom.You can loosen the arm completely with the phone attached, hold the phone exactly where you want to place it, then tighten the arm and it will lock the phone in that position. Once tightened, the arm is rock solid and doesn't budge.The included phone clamp is kinda cheesy, but the arm itself is outstanding. There are plenty of inexpensive phone clamps that are compatible with the arm.
4.0 out of 5 stars Useful, but lacking
I am using this mount to hold a Panasonic GH3 m4/3 camera for recording video demonstrations of a work surface from above. The mount's rubber-grip claws are fastened around the edge of a shelf, which holds the whole kit securely. The arm articulation is agile enough to move around at all kinds of odd angles until the camera's view is oriented the way I need it, and once tightened, it generally stays put. All in all, it's a useful problem-solver to have in your toolbox.So that's the good. Here's the not-so-good:1) I'm not a photography expert, so maybe it's obvious to some of you what all these attachments do, but it's definitely not obvious to me. Even a simple diagram of how the various pieces fit together would be SO helpful. As it stands, I know one of them is for hooking on to the camera's flash mount. One of them looks like a claw for thicker flat surfaces (like a countertop, maybe?) The hinge pieces and the long screw? No idea what to do what that.2) The one attachment I really wish this came with is a quick-release mount for the 1/4" threaded end you would attach to your camera or LCD monitor. I got this thing in place, got the shot lined up the way I wanted it, then realized I needed to change SD cards. I had to undo ALL of it to get to the SD card slot, then put it all back in place. Unscrewing the camera from the 1/4" mount while the arm is in place is ten times more tedious than just setting up your articulation from scratch, though. Either way, it's a 5-minute job for what a quick-release could do in 1 second. Doing this once was enough to convince me I needed to pursue a better mounting solution.3) The entire thing is locked down with a single knob. This knob not only sets the arms, but also locks the ball mounts at the end. So, if you need to make an adjustment *anywhere*, you loosen that one knob, and the entire thing falls limp. You then have to get every moving part aligned JUST the way you want it, and tighten the one knob to lock it in place. Which never works out exactly, of course, so you have to tighten it MOST of the way, and strong-arm that last 5% adjustment. Not a great design. You will find yourself wanting to weak it just a little, and then thinking.. nah, not worth the effort. I'll just crop it in post.4) The ball mounts at the end don't actually lock completely. They don't *move*, but they can *rotate* in place. This means, if your camera exerts any uneven weight in a way that causes the ball mount to rotate in its grip, it will do just that. I ended up with a shot that inadvertently panned slowly across my work surface from left to right this way. Tightening more can reduce this, but it doesn't seem to completely eliminate it.After all, this mount is what it is. It's useful, but more than likely you will get so fed up with its faults that you will go buy a more expensive mount that is designed for people that need to get things done in the real world. It's cheap enough that I don't necessarily regret purchasing it, since I'm sure I'll need a quick fix band-aid solution for something, and I'll be willing to suffer the inconvenience to get the job done. But as a primary mount? No, just spend the money to get something better.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product!
I normally don't write reviews for anything, and I was skeptical that this product could actually support a DSLR. But it does. It's versatile, made of high-grade materials and can be positioned in a lot of different angles. Since no manual came with it, I had to play around with it for about 2 minutes before I figured it out, but after that it was a breeze. I would highly recommend this product.
3.0 out of 5 stars Okay But with a few exceptions
Finally putting this together. It's definitely strong and should do the job but: where are the instructions? I would have an easier time figuring out something from Ikea. I have no idea what all of these pieces are for and I'm not really vloger/video savvy.My other complaint was not having a cold shoe mount on the phone holder. So heads up if that's what you need. However, this will certainly work for now.
Great tool!
This is a totally adjustable grip. Love the application. I will say that it is a bit challenging to hold everything in place while trying to tighten it. The ball heads and the center all lock at the same time but not always easy to hold the ball joints in the right place. Overall it is excellent for extending my reach for projecting or taking shots.
Solid & adjustable
Great bit if kit, rock solid and so adjustable I could get it fixed exactly where I wanted.
Great product
Overhead camcorder
Worked well
At first I didn’t know what to think but used it today for a camcorder mounted on my boat. It was sturdier than I thought it would be. Seems durable and solid, I will be using this lots.
Clamp is great, arm is good (but not great)
The clamp part is a great design, more customisable (so to speak) than others in its class.... The magic arm itself is just as good / bad as others on the price bracket.5/5 for the clamp4/5 for the arm.
