Manfrotto Micro Friction Arm Reviews

Small but mighty

Excellent build quality, compact and very handy. These Manfrotto arms are simply excellent. And they hold a lot of weight for their size. For my money these perform better than the Noga arms.

Not sturdy at all

This thing simply doesn't lock down tight. there is always wobble in the ball joints. I'm using this to support a lightweight Ninja V+ Pro monitor, and there is so much give in the joint.... Also, the plastic locking nob feels cheap and as if it might break, if any real pressure is applied to it. I own a Matthews infinity arm, which is AMAZING, but also costs three times the price. I wanted this for my smaller camera setup, but found it to be a waste.... I'm going to try out one of the Zacuto arms instead.

I own two of these Manfrotto friction arms, one on each camera. Love the size and the build quality. Payload is excellent for the size and they've been holding fairly heavy monitors with no issues. Also, great to have a tightening knob that's not round... it's easier to know how much to tighten. I used to have Noga Arms but they never seem to last... very happy with these ones!

This thing is strong. Holds my SmallHd external monitor to my Flowtech 75 no problem. The additional attachment is clutch. The tightening screw is easy to hold for good torque. A bit on the expensive side, but this will be my second attachment like this, I'm hoping it will be my last.

Very sturdy arm!

I use this arm for my Atomos. Mostly with my ronin and it performs flawlessly. Very easy to adjust and has a strong firm grip without having to tighten it down super tight.

question

the photo shows 1/4 -20 studs installed on both ends, plus a loose 3/8 -16 stud. But, the description says one 1/4 -20 stud and one 3/8 -16 stud. Which is correct?
Asked by: Anonymous
The arm comes with two 1/4 fittings on it. The extra part is the 3/8 adapter, which you screw onto one end and attach to the tripod. I have the arm holding a 7 monitor and its works great. You tighten the clamp and it stays.
