Wimberley The Plamp II Reviews

Useful

I have found this Plamp useful for holding a small translucent reflector for shade during macro photography. I use a second one to hold the plant steady during focus bracketing shoots. I clamp it to a small light stand. Very flexible yet capable for light weight stabilizing applications. Very durable - should last a lifetime.

Solid piece of kit

Found out about these through Steve Perry at Backcountry Gallery and they are very useful to hold things in place for macro images, flowers, etc. They can also hold things out of the way! As well as holding reflectors and scrims. Probably a number of other uses I have yet to think of.

Some clamps are black and others grey. What's the difference and which one do we get here?
Asked by: Ivo
Direct from OEM: grey was the launch color, they then changed to black. Other than color, there is no diff between the two. I received black from B&H.

Asked by: Renee
It may hold a lightweight umbrella but if you are shooting outside, wind may take its toll.
