Review on ๐Ÿ“ท Manfrotto 035RL Super Clamp with 2908 Standard Stud - Replaces 2900 - Black: Ultimate Professional Camera Mount and Support Tool by Janelle Nelson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Is working! Are competitors better and cheaper?

Overall a great brand but there are a few things the competitor (Brand: Impact) does better. The pen looks very cheap. Which is odd, because it's also plastic compared to Impact, but does it feel better? In addition, the Impact grip features an "angle" adjustment; This means that the tightening/loosening button can be repositioned in tight spaces, while this version cannot. Assembly somehow not the same? Compared to the Impact I can clamp the C-pillar (main speaker) much easier, this seems to slide (in the same position) to where I need to keep clamping for some strange reason. No big deal just weird? Yes this thing will work fine, it's just weird that I MUCH prefer the Impact version even though it's almost the same design (and $8 or so cheaper!). They just weren't in stock and I needed a clamp ASAP. Overall yes, it works great, it's just odd that for something that's almost "copied" between companies, I MUCH prefer the Impact version.

Pros
  • Feels good
Cons
  • Reliability
