While I'm anticipating the purchase of a Manfrotto tripod, I used it to grip the FLIR Scout Tk Thermal Monocular and at its other end, attach this assemblage to a set of plastic extensions mounted to my SLIK tripod (that is designed to support only 16 lbs. of photo equipment.) The plastic extensions are comparatively flimsy compared with this Clamp, but not useless. I expect it to be more functional after I obtain a more sturdy tripod.
This thing oozes quality. It's HEAVY though, so take consideration of your tripod's load capacity if you have a small one. My binocs barely fit though (Pentax Marine). I had to mount on a small angle, but a 3 way pan head made this a non issue. The coolest thing about it is that you can clamp whatever you want. Microphone, monoculars, etc. Anything that's clamp able. I also use it in my art studio to clamp one of those hook garage lights on a tripod. I can focus the lighting any way I want in a snap. It's very handy. Like it's made for it. Working in the dark and need a specific angle to work on an engine or something? Stick a flashlight on it. If I had to guess on the price without knowing, I would guess it's a 90-170 dollar item. Think Mil-Spec. And it doesn't wobble...AT ALL.
