What Customers Say About Sunpak ClampPod Pro Clamping Tripod:

I don't recommend using the "goose neck", it makes the clamp top heavy. First, this isn't a Manfrotto, but it is a reasonable clamp at over half the cost. If you don't want to drill a clamp (diy, I salute you), this isn't a bad alternative. The ball head works very well on all Nikon flashes up to the SB-900. That's the deal. Works great as a small flash clamp or for a small point and shoot camera.
Good clamp, especially since you cannot find this sort of thing anywhere else.The construction is not that great, but it is still a good thing to have.
I guess it probably did have the measurments on it.I was suprised. Over all I like the clamp it was quite a bit larger than I thought.I wanted to stick it in my small camera bag.
You don't always have a flat surface to film or photograph from. The flexible steel neck makes just about any angle work and it will unscrew for easy packing. This is the only small tripod I could find that uses a `clamp' for those times you cannot find a level surface. This also holds up to two pounds of weight which will work with most any newer model of camera (not older video cameras). Sunpak always seems to have the most `cutting edge' products; even simply ideas like this. It can be clamped vertically to a post, door edge or even a tree, if necessary. The spring clamp is heavy duty, but has rubber pads to prevent any potential damage or scratching.
Overall, if you need a quick clamp to pretty much anything camera mount for static shots, or maybe an accessory mount, this should be fine. Ball seat mount is best part. Tried this out for in-car use, the spring in the clamp is really weak and slips easily. Arm has decent range of motion, but already has loosened up to the point that it only maintains a position inside a narrow range.
