11" Adjustable Magic Arm DSLR Mirrorless Action Camera Camcorder Smartphone LCD Monitor Video Vlog Rig w/Clamp Holder Mounts fit for GoPro iPhone

I recently picked up the Fantaseal 11" Adjustable Magic Arm, and I have to say, I’m really impressed! This rig is sturdy and feels incredibly well-built. The clamps grip like a champ, ensuring that my camera isn’t going anywhere, even during intense drifting sessions.I used three of these magic arms for extra stability while capturing in-car shots, and they worked like a dream. My Sony camera stayed solid, and the footage turned out looking fantastic. The adjustable 360° ball head lets you easily tweak your angles, which is super helpful when you’re trying to get the perfect shot on the fly.Made from high-quality aluminum alloy and stainless steel, this arm can handle the elements—rain, snow, you name it. I love how it can be mounted on various surfaces, which makes it perfect for outdoor setups. At just $26.91, it’s a steal for anyone looking to step up their video game.If you're into vlogging, action sports, or just want a reliable way to secure your gear, this magic arm is definitely worth checking out! Highly recommend!

Fantaseal has done it again matching brilliant innovation with a high quality product. This mount is insanely durable for the price and what it is. I've had mounts that used these joints, but none came close to just how strong this one is. Past mounts couldn't handle sudden forces or bumps when secured at the ball joints. However this one took some serious elbow grease from me trying to force it to move when tightened! The meshed teeth design for the arms were out of the question in terms of budging. Once tightened down, I couldn't move it with all my force! 10/10 for strength of this mount.In regards to the accessories, I absolutely love the Super Clamp and the high torque screws! The clamp has no wiggle in it and has a nice rubber padding on the clamp side. There's a wide angle that it can reach that can fit most reasonable objects for clamping to. Fantaseal's torque screws are one of the many reasons I love them. The torque screws let you really....well...torque down the screw much easier than a regular gripped screw.Finally, the phone mount has another innovative design that makes it even more versatile! The rubber tab at the end makes it very easy to pull the bar up to slide in the phone. What makes the adapter so unique though, is that this one has an adjustment screw to make the adapter extend wider incase your phone is just a bit too large. A great idea that solves a common problem!This mount is another great product from Fantaseal. I am yet to be let down by their products and am always certain that it will be a quality piece of equipment for a great price. If you are commonly on the move recording or struggle finding a way to mount your camera around a rounded object, this is a great option that I would highly recommend. Definitely get your money's worth!

I am using this mount to hold a Panasonic GH3 m4/3 camera for recording video demonstrations of a work surface from above. The mount's rubber-grip claws are fastened around the edge of a shelf, which holds the whole kit securely. The arm articulation is agile enough to move around at all kinds of odd angles until the camera's view is oriented the way I need it, and once tightened, it generally stays put. All in all, it's a useful problem-solver to have in your toolbox.So that's the good. Here's the not-so-good:1) I'm not a photography expert, so maybe it's obvious to some of you what all these attachments do, but it's definitely not obvious to me. Even a simple diagram of how the various pieces fit together would be SO helpful. As it stands, I know one of them is for hooking on to the camera's flash mount. One of them looks like a claw for thicker flat surfaces (like a countertop, maybe?) The hinge pieces and the long screw? No idea what to do what that.2) The one attachment I really wish this came with is a quick-release mount for the 1/4" threaded end you would attach to your camera or LCD monitor. I got this thing in place, got the shot lined up the way I wanted it, then realized I needed to change SD cards. I had to undo ALL of it to get to the SD card slot, then put it all back in place. Unscrewing the camera from the 1/4" mount while the arm is in place is ten times more tedious than just setting up your articulation from scratch, though. Either way, it's a 5-minute job for what a quick-release could do in 1 second. Doing this once was enough to convince me I needed to pursue a better mounting solution.3) The entire thing is locked down with a single knob. This knob not only sets the arms, but also locks the ball mounts at the end. So, if you need to make an adjustment *anywhere*, you loosen that one knob, and the entire thing falls limp. You then have to get every moving part aligned JUST the way you want it, and tighten the one knob to lock it in place. Which never works out exactly, of course, so you have to tighten it MOST of the way, and strong-arm that last 5% adjustment. Not a great design. You will find yourself wanting to weak it just a little, and then thinking.. nah, not worth the effort. I'll just crop it in post.4) The ball mounts at the end don't actually lock completely. They don't *move*, but they can *rotate* in place. This means, if your camera exerts any uneven weight in a way that causes the ball mount to rotate in its grip, it will do just that. I ended up with a shot that inadvertently panned slowly across my work surface from left to right this way. Tightening more can reduce this, but it doesn't seem to completely eliminate it.After all, this mount is what it is. It's useful, but more than likely you will get so fed up with its faults that you will go buy a more expensive mount that is designed for people that need to get things done in the real world. It's cheap enough that I don't necessarily regret purchasing it, since I'm sure I'll need a quick fix band-aid solution for something, and I'll be willing to suffer the inconvenience to get the job done. But as a primary mount? No, just spend the money to get something better.

This little arm should have no business holding up a full DLSR with a lens attached, but that is exactly what it has done in a week of testing! Better-than-expected build quality means that, once you tighten this down, you get almost no wobbling of your camera whatsoever. The slight wobble I noticed might be user error, but it is only even noticeable because of the lens offsetting the center of balance, and it can be easily corrected-for in a few minutes.One thing to be aware of is that there is no manual included with the product. You'll need to sort through the available adapters (of which there are plenty to connect to whatever you like) and attach the ones you need. Operation is simple enough that this only took me a few minutes, but it is worth mentioning.The seller also went above and beyond in working with me after Amazon Fulfillment sent the wrong item originally. Would definitely recommend this if you're looking for a budget camera clamp that can support a DSLR. Performance with something like a GoPro is only going to be better!
