[Silver] Use it to attach an Aputure MC (including diffuser) onto a Canon body. Not cheap plastic. 5

[0.375 lb] I bought this little tripod to mount my Lume Cube 2.0 on for table top shooting. It works perfect, love it. 5

[Silver] This thing has been great! I actually own two and will probably buy a couple more. It's small, sturdy, and holds really well! 5

[0.375 lb] The heavy duty steel construction was a pleasant surprise. The thumbscrew for the camera mount is big and easy to use. I feel the locking screw for the ball and swivel was a little disappointing. It would benefit from being a little bigger. If you are mounting something heavy you will need to make sure you screw it in tight. It was able to hold my Nikon D3300 just fine. One thing to take into consideration with this is what you will mount it on and the angle the item will sit at. I'm using it on a boom mic stand. My gopro will work just fine but the camera is a bit heavier than the boom can handle. If you are going to use it for anything over a pound I would recommend only using it on a mic stand with a vertical pole, or an extra heavy duty boom mic stand. 5

[Silver] I used this product on my wedding videos. What i liked about the product is that it has very good illumination. 5

[Silver] Simple, does a good job of supporting small loads. I've used it as a monitor mount and to support a 12-inch tube light, and it held up without a hitch. Great value. 5
