FOMITO 11 inch Articulating Magic Arm + Super Clamp for DSLR Rig Camera to LCD Monito, LED Video Light

Well designed and seems to be well built. I have had a “small rig” branded version of this same item for over a year and really like it. I bought several of these both for my own use and as gifts. Who can’t sometime use a third hand to hold a light. Hold the camera still. Hold your phone. Whatever!Really impressed with how easy this is to adjust and how stable the rod is once it is set! This is a must own. At least one!

I gave this arm 5 stars for how well it fit my needs, not for if it can do what they claim it does. I have a Youtube hunting channel and I needed an arm that was built strong to mount a field monitor to. It needed to be able to handle harsh weather conditions, that included below -0 temps, and would still work. This arm handles that well. After doing a lot of research (which you should also be doing) I knew this would meet my needs. This arm will handle field monitors, lights, and action camera's like a champ ! Now if you are looking for a arm that can support a DSLR camera, like they claim. Forget about it, keep looking, this arm won't support any of mine. But if you are looking for a strong, high quality arm, that can handle all the harsh weather that you can throw at it, to put field monitor, lights, and action camera on. Then this will do you well. Have a nice day

El brazo es ideal para adaptar monitores y luces de poco peso, en caso de requerir poner algún elemento importante y costoso en este brazo, lo mejor será pensárselo dos veces pues la construcción no es tan solida. Una simple caída puede doblar el hot shoe o dañar las perillas de ajuste de las esquinas e incluso dañar el brazo.A pesar de que incluye una abrazadera, el brazo no soporta mucho peso, asi que tengan cuidado.Si por el contrario solo van a poner alli luces RGB o soportes de batería, el brazo funciona bastante bien.

It is made of metal which is nice except for I do joints by the screw part I don’t care for it because each joint is not individually adjusted the whole thing flops apart loosened by one knob that controls all angles it’s hard to hold onto three different sections to get it where are you want it

I got two of these arms for my live streaming set up. One holds a light panel, and the other holds a ring light and camera. Once you tighten it down, it's not going anywhere. I suggest these for people looking for a small boom arm. I was concerned that this would feel like a cheap knock off part, but it definitely surprised me. I will most likely end up getting more in the future.

This is an amazing tool for holding my phone or small lights in odd angles. Once you tighten every joint tightens together and it hold well. I've held my iPhone 10x with a super sturdy heavy case, and it held very well. I think it is the max amount it will hold before it will start to give. For my purposes though... it's perfect.

The quality of the components individually seems to be reasonable from a visual inspection. However the clamp is tapped for 6mm metric thread, and the arm is 1/4-20 SAE thread.If you aren't familiar with metric conversion 1/4" is about 6.35mm, which is close enough that you have to look closely at the threads to tell the difference. 6mm has about 25 threads per inch, and 1/4" has only 20.As such, you will get less than a turn in before the threads jam, then you have to use the thumb wheel to lock it in place, but it will never be "secure".For the two that I bought I will be tapping out the metric hole with a SAE tap instead of returning them, but I won't be buying any more.

I'm using it to hold a projector tray as a table for a beach chair. Holds firm.
