Super Clamp Alternative – C Clamp Mount
These C clamps are a cheaper alternative to other more expensive super clamps. Any shooter knows the value in having a versatile tool that allows you to expand your set up. When shooting, often you need an audio recorder, a mic, a light.. this can quickly become a laundry list. These C clamps offer an inexpensive solution to securing your gear in just about any orientation you’d like and they’re cheap!
The inside of the C clamp is grooved so it can secure onto rounded surfaces (like a light stand) without slipping. There is a 1/4 inch male thread on this C clamp to attach your accessories to. You can find these Super Clamp C Brackets following the link (here).

Hey Olivia,
I’m just wondering what kind of ball head mounts you’re using? Could you possibly do a review between the standard ones that are readily available (like from zacuto) to cheap ones found on ebay?
I’ve been looking around for a sturdy reliable one without a ridiculous price tag.
I also love the opening. With the music it just feels so right!
Hi Tony, the mini ball head I’m using on the LED light is from Giotto. Here is a link to where you can purchase these.

Are you talking about doing a comparison review of high end mini ball heads vs. the cheaper alternatives?
