Review on 🔧 Black SLIK Clamp Head 38 (Model 618-020) by Ashley Ray

I bought this to mount a lightweight camcorder to a tripod leg and record live video on my computer which sits on a tray on top of the tripod. The clamp is fleshy. The screw you see farthest from the head is unscrewed all the way, allowing the clamp to open like pliers. I put the clamp on the tripod leg, tighten it, done. The head screw allows the head to rotate 360 degrees around the end of the clamp and rotate 180 degrees top to bottom under the clamp as shown. I would easily mount any consumer camcorder on it, as well as a non-telephoto DSLR. I'm currently filming a set video scene (baseball and pitch). If you need to pan, you need a real tilt and I don't think that would be a good choice. For shooting with a heavy camera/lens, I think you need to use something like a Manfrotto horizontal double-head rod, or mount the camera on a tripod and attach the computer to the tripod with super clamps/magic arm. . In any case, it is more than twice as expensive and you have to take more with you.
