Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud
The Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp is made of lightweight cast alloy. The Super Clamp is a very versatile tool and it holds just about anything: cameras, lights, umbrellas, hooks, shelves, plate glass, cross bars, even other Super Clamps.
The Super Clamp can be securely mounted on any tube from 0.5" to 2.1" and is supplied with a unique wedge insert for clamping onto flat surfaces. A built-in socket allows the use of over 30 attachments to hold anything from backgrounds to lighting fixtures.
The Standard Stud (2908/03614) is included. This item replaces old catalog #2900.

I have one of these and bought what I thought was the same thing but found found the one I had picked was made in China and clamp was a close match but the stud was not. I returned it and bought the Manfrotto model instead.
Buy this one the first time and save the money you have to pay to return the imitator!

It seems to be very sturdy and well-built. I wanted to attach a camera directly to this clamp but it doesn't have either a 1/4" or a 3/8" threaded stud. The brass fixture that comes with it is great for rigging a light tho. I bought a couple of them and I'm sure that at some point I'll find a use for them.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
There are cheaper options available, but the build quality isn't quite as dependable and durable as the Manfrotto.
The money you save getting the cheaper clamps is only a few dollars, so in my opinion it's worth paying the extra to get a solid product with a better stud.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
Not sure I need the stud, so be sure that you need it, otherwise you can get it w/o it. Otherwise works as advertised, although the jaw insert could be better.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
A single clamp can be used on any light stand, tripod leg, table edge, bookshelf, etc., to provide an anchor point for lights, cameras, or other gear. A pair of clamps allows a quick and easy mount (with a cross bar) for seamless backgrounds or background cloth. The entire family of attachments allows an endless variety of mouthing solutions. Foolproof and sturdy.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
This is a high-quality clamp that lives up to its name. Widely adapted to many uses, my implementation of these clamps range from mounting a mono-light from above to hanging a reflector panel. You may find any number of uses for this versatile clamp. No photographer should be without one (or more!). Quality craftsmanship is evident in this offering from Manfrotto. I highly recommend the Super Clamp!

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
Works wonderfully and holds everything I've ever attached to it. It weighs a ton so taking it in mu luggage requires some consideration. I do wish it came with a coupld of the different spigots/brass monkeys.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
There are many uses for this product...not just for photography. One suggestion for improvement would be to use a similar handle/locking system that they use on their tripod heads with this type of handle, whereas the user can tighten the clamp, but then pull up on the handle to rotate it to a different position, thus out of the way. The way it works, now, the user must leave the handle in whatever position it ends up in when tightened, which means that it may sometimes be in the way. But, that is a small price to pay for this excellent clamp.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
I use this in conjunction with a Manfrottto 498 RC2 head and my avenger c-stand. I mounted a D700 and put ti 9 feet in teh air for time-lapse photographry. I did buy the additional 3/8 stud to fit the Manfrotto head. This is a great product! Well worth the money

I used this to mount a time lapse camera and it worked great. The clamp stayed tight the entire time the camera was mounted (camera was upside down at an angle) and never came loose.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
This clamp has so many uses...I don't know where to start. I use it to hang a battery pack to a light stand, as a counterbalance for small speedlights on a boom. It works great with the Manfrotto flex arm to suspend a speedlight from a light stand....sideways no less.
It's a great product and a must have in any camera bag!! I have 2 and will be purchasing another pair.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
This thing is great. It has saved me several times, when nothing else would work. Everyone should have at least one of these on their person at all times. Very solid build, strong grip, versatile beyond belief, and it fits in you pocket...it can't be beat for the price.

Comments about Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud:
I use it to clamp my flash to a tree branch in the yard. This allows me to throw some light on a nestbox in my yard.
I can also clamp to a flat surface l such as a tabletop.
