"Add this to your "Strobist" gear for off camera flash"
This is a great clamp for your off camera flash. It will hold an umbrella and can tilt forward and back, moving the umbrella and flash together. It comes with the connectors you'll need if you want to attach to a light stand or even an extra tripod you have sitting around. Versatile and reliable. The only suggestion I have is stick a piece of electrical (or other) tape on the bottom of the metal shoe (where you attach your flash) so the metal doesn't short the flash.

Happy shooting.

"umbrella clamp"
Good equipment. Does just what it is suppose to. Great for shooting with off camera flash and a umbrella.

"It works"
Its a umbrella clamp, with a shoe mount. It works. There's not much else to say. Sturdy construction, holds the umbrella and flash well no complaints.

"Good enough for my needs."
They're a little plasticky, but they work quite well. I am concerned about long-term use, but if I wanted big heavy duty cycle swivels I should have bought some. These are a good price, and very likable.

Don't know if other reviewers mentioned this: get some tape on the bottom of the shoe mounts. Your flash contacts will short out on them. Photoflex: 1 star gone for you! What were you thinking?

On the up side, they didn't damage my 580ex's. The short simply caused them to fire.

UPDATE 01/02/2009 - I am astounded at how good these have turned out to be, for cheapies. I tend to be careful with them, because they feel a little flimsy, but I have not yet been able to break them. I have dropped them, thrown them (that was a childish temper-tantrum moment for me...sigh), and popped them into the side pocket of my light bag (where they get bumped a lot) and flown with them. Still going strong.

Twice used as a simple swivel for a big heavy octabox and monolight, which is not recommended from what I hear, and the knuckle tightened right up without strain and held tight.

I also discovered clear packing tape works well to laminate the top of the show where the contacts go - that has held up well also.

I have recommended, and continue to recommend, these to other photographers. I will be buying a few more as my kit grows.

"Must have!"
Absolutly a must have!! Very easy to use, small and compact, and inexpensive. Combined with some TTL flash units and you'll have a studio set-up that will fit in a very small bag! A+!!

"Multiclamp", Every portrait photographer should have these. Great for mounting on lighting stands, easy to use, can holster any umbrella or lighting accessory. It stores pretty small in a bag, maybe a little awkwardly if you are tight on space, but all around a great item to have.

"simple, but it works", this comes with both a 1/4 inch and 5/8 inch tripod adapter but it's a scary thing to put it on a tripod from my expirience. on a light stand it is very solid however. I'm also not crazy about having an aluminum cold shoe and while I have not had problems with it, it scars me to no end that I'll short out my flash somehow. Also the coldshoe has a little screw that you tighen. I would have much rather had a standard cold shoe like the ones that come with the flash so I could use the flash's own tightening knob but I guess this gets the job done.

If you're reading this chances are you're on a budget so go ahead and get it. It's not fancy but it works.

"Strobist, on the cheap lighting.", Bought these along with my second stand. It differs from the first swivel i bought (Adorama Universal) in that this one has a hot shoe attachment. Build quality is also not the same as the Adorama Universal swivel. If you need the hot shoe attachment go for this one. Either way you wont be disappointed.

"Great Item", The Multi-Clamp can be one of the most versatile items in your kit. It's made strong and I'm always finding new uses for it. It's easy to adjust and comes with a shoe mount. I use it with a tripod, a reflecting umbrella and key light or flash.

"Works perfectly for me. Works as it should.", I use this unit to angle my softbox and sb-600 combination, and it does exactly what I need it to do securely! I never have to worry about my set up losing it's position, it is strong enough to hold every angle that I need it to.

I am VERY happy with this purchase.

"Shoe Mount Clamp", Well made. Gives you the option to position your strobe and umbrella exactly where you need them. Good fit and smooth action. A great improvement over the ball/clamp fitting I was previously using.

"Great Clamp!", Save yourself some money with these clamps by attaching them to extra camera tripods instead of spending extra on light stands. Great and easy to use clamp. Bought two for my optical slave sunpak 383's and two umbrellas and you cant beat the pics im getting.

"Cheap but does the job", Good clamp. Does what it is suppose to do. Only thing i don't like is the hotshoe screw. it is flimsy and doesn't feel like it holds the flash in place. It is also hard to tighten and loosen. Otherwise, it's a great bang for the buck.

"Attach a boom mic to a light stand", I shoot low budget documentary video and my crew usually consists of me and one other so I need to travel lightly and all of my equipment must be able to multi-task. I wanted to be able to utilize any one of my heavy-duty Amvona boom light stands as a boom mic stand with as little jerry-rigging as possible.

The inexpensive Photoflex Shoe Mount Multiclamp has been great so far. I use it to attach a Rode NT-3 hypercardioid mic in a Rode SM-3 shockmount to my boom light stands. The SM-3 has a shoe-mount so I can use it as a camera mic or use the multiclamp to attach it to an available light stand boom to get the mic closer to a stationary subject. So far it has worked just fine.

I do agree that the mount itself is a little underpowered and I always use a little gaffers tape on the light stand for added grip before I cinch down the multiclamp. And since I have no desire to see my beautiful Rode mic hit a cement floor, I always wrap some tape around the base of the clamp to secure it to the stand as well. I don't think it would let loose, but better safe...

That said, this a great product for the money, and it's one of the only clamps like this out there, but I'd gladly pay ten or even twenty dollars more for one that locked to the stand more securely. Even at twenty dollars more it would be hundreds of dollars less expensive than an additional shockmount and mic boom stand.

"must have!", I've ordered two of the shoe mount to use with my canon flashes mounted on a stand and umbrella, its a great item and I think everyone who wants to create a mini studio lights should get it.
