Handy accessory2009-06-30
This is a sturdy, well designed accessory. I have limited mobility and shoot a lot of pictures from the car, this window mount will really help with long shots where stability is vital. It is also possible to mount a larger ballhead on the clamp.
Camera Clamp2009-04-02
Great product for those unusual needs for artsy photos. Connecting to different types of objects not a problem but suited to round or square shaped poles, size of at least a broom handle. Product is quite heavy; this gives it the sturdiness needed to ensure the camera equipment remains safe and secure.
Screw knob came off on first use2009-03-28
The idea behind this clamp is brilliant. Unfortunately, the design misses on a key point: the knob used to tighten and loosen the clamp may be subjected to a lot of force. I clamped mine down pretty tight on a railing to be sure my camera was secure. When I came back to unclamp it, the knob simply twisted off. Upon closer inspection, the knob has threads in the center that screw onto the same threaded piece that holds the clamping foot pad. With very little force, it simply unscrewed itself since the foot had enough pressure to stay stationary. It took quite a bit of effort to get the the clamp off in the end because the knob would simply not stay on for me to unscrew. Perhaps there was some kind of glue and I just got a bad one. Not sure, but it has definitely rendered it useless for the moment. Perhaps some SuperGlue might work...

It is also worth nothing that this retailer has marked this up over twice what the MSRP is. Check B&H Photo or REI for a more reasonable price.
Fantastic and one of a kind!2008-05-15
I used this clamp to suspend a microphone from the crossbars of a jeep. Its unique joints allow you to swivel 360 degrees in all three dimensions! What's more, the head of the screw is flat ended, intended for tables, but the curve on the top edge works really nicely for my purposes.

Because the mic stays mounted on a moving (bouncing) vehicle, one of the joints tended to keep getting loose. Not a problem if you're stationary. My previous one mysteriously locked up though - maybe the threads of the screw oxidized. After much searching (I couldn't remember the make or model) I'm thrilled I finally found it again - there's nothing else configured like it. Just remember to clean it once in a while!
Ultra Clamp - Does what its intended to do very well2007-06-09
I got the Ultraclamp to mount a small digital camcorder on the frame of my motorcycle to shoot some scenic ride videos. (NOT crazy tricks). The clamp is very sturdy and holds quite well to the frame. It has a multitude of mounting configurations and angle adjustments.
Overall I am very happy with it and it is built quite well.

Digital camera batteries
Batteries are vital for all photography and makiing sure that you have a spare set is essential if you intend to take alot of pictures. Print digital also recommend that when deciding upon a digital camera keep in mind what sort of batteries it takes. Does it take rechargeable batteries, are the batteries built and do you have to plug it into the mains, or does the camera only take standard batteries, if so then it can become exspensive if you are a keen photographer and use the camera alot. There are three types of rechargeable batteries: NiCD, NiMH and Lithium-Ion. Nickel Metal Hydride are the most popular rechargeable batteries at present. They hold more charge than their counter parts NiCD and don't suffer from memory effect. The one small down fall of these batteries is that they will loose a small amount of charge even if they are not being used, so be sure to check the batteries before using them. When you purchase a new digital camera make sure to ask what type of battery ...

Introduction Professional digital camcorders are better than your analog camcorder, or even your digital video camera. The advancements that have been made in the camcorder industry are amazing. Just like everything else they keep getting more and more advanced, and shrinking in size. Even though we have seen much advancement, the price keeps getting more and more affordable. Professionals are not the only ones who can now enjoy the wonderful benefits of a professional -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A professional digital camcorder allows creativity and quality to meet, and the cost is far lower than it was only a few years ago.
