question
Currently building up our studio capabilities of shooting top down video from the ceiling, I am looking for a clamp that can support the weight of a Canon 5D with lens to a pole from above. Would this clamp and head work for this setup or what would you recommend?
The Manfrotto Super Clamp with 056 3-D Junior Head can support a total of 6.6 lbs. and I would not go over 5 lbs. And less would be safer. If your camera and lens combined is less than you should be fine. If you want other suggestions it is best you contact us direct in chat or over the phones to discuss this.

Can this clamp be used on a Manfrotto carbon fiber medium boom extension to clamp around the boom so as to provide a microphone mounting surface on the boom?
It will clamp to any pole or column under 1.75". Just be careful not to crush the carbon fiber as these clamps to have a good amount of clamping force.

Avenger C1575B vs. Manfrotto 035? Differences?
Avenger C1575B vs. Manfrotto 035? Differences?
Very similar products. I like Manfrotto as a company because they seam to be very meticulous with their products in general. The lever gives you great power and they do ship their 035 model with the stud. Does the Avenger model come with a stud? I did not get the impression I would have as much clamping power with the rounded knob from Avanger.
I hope this helps you in making a decision
Good luck

What diameter are the screw holes on the bottom ? Are they all the same diameter ?
There are five holes arranged in a quincunx. I find the central hole is UNC 1/4" 20. One pair of opposite holes appear to be M5. The other pair seem unthreaded. Perhaps alignment holes for an unknown accessory? I would like to find proper specs for these holes.

can a pair of the "quick action" super clamps be used to connect a crossbar to 2 autopoles for backdrops?
Two of the Manfrotto 635 Quick Action Super Clamps cannot be used alone to connect a crossbar to autopoles or stands. Two of the Manfrotto 038 Double Super Clamps (B&H # MA038) are a better choice.

Can it securely attach to a 2x6 beam?
The Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud can attach to a 2x6 beam, but one should use a safety cable like the Impact Safety Cable (18"), B&H # IMSC1.518 (https://bhpho.to/3Yg3t0L).

Can you attach this directly to a tripod head?
if you purchase the Impact Short Double Female Stud for Super Clamps with 1/4"-20 & 3/8"-16 Threads, B&H # IMSRP103, you should be able to connect the Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with Standard Stud to the 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 male thread on the top of your tripod head.
