CowboyStudio Photography Gorilla Clamp Studio Mount

Got it for securely attaching camera when taking time lapse photos. Well made. Could be a bit bigger, but works.

Although there's no single clamp mount for every job, these are great for adding lights to shafts, pipes, or lightstands. Beware that if you're mounting a heavier strobe to this then you might need to add some friction between the clamp and pole to prevent slipping. For speedlights/flashguns this clamp is fantastic, and the price is super cheap too. Highly recommended...

I use this clamp to hold my pocket wizard TT5 to my light stands for my alien bees. feels very secure and best cost option I have found. very happy with the purchase but haven't tried it with any significant weight as of yet, that wasn't really why I tried it. does feel strong and cant beat the price.

This is a great tool for hanging a light fixture from an overhead support. I lost my much more expensive Lowell clamp and bought one of these to use in a pinch. While it isn't as nicely made as the Lowell clamp, it's only 1/2 the price and works just as well.

Pretty good, but the little rubber cover that protects your furniture (or whatever you're clamping it to) falls off very easily. I got two of these and they both have the same problem. Otherwise, it holds my led lights nicely during production. I'll be ordering a few more. Thanks for reading! -Angel

I carry it on my travels, when carrying a tripod is simply an annoyance. Slip it in your pocket and clamp it to the ubiquitous rails. You may not get the perfect exposure, but it will be much better than hand held. I have one in my camera bag in a neoprene pouch all the time. You never know when you need a long exposure.

I bought this to crank my order up enough to receive Super Saver Shipping. I've used it once to hold an LCD monitor to a tripod leg, and it worked reasonably well. It really needs a tilt or swivel head, but I can't dock stars for something I knew when I purchased it. I'm sure this will save me one day when I attach a much needed fill to a chair.

I was planning on using these to hold a second crossbar down at the bottom of an existing light stand. The profile of the stem is different, it slants from the tip to the main stem, instead of having a straight/90 degree profile. As a result of this, the crossbar will not screw in properly, it torques off the slant and it pops off the mount. Not sure what is the "standard", but I have access to at least six other sets of stands and crossbars from other vendors, and they all seem to work with each other, and the stems have the straight profile. In addition, the rubber pads keep falling off, as others have noted. I'll probably keep these and try them with other accessories, but they were a bust for my application.
