Been using the 035 clamp for about 40 years on all sorts of situations (with or without the wedge), as alternate to a tripod, when a railing is available. It’s a little heavy in a backpack but I carry it all Avery the place. Adapt a large screw as a platform and you can clamp to the screw, in the woods when using a telephoto lens

those other 4 holes are two for METRIC screw threads and the other two are either threaded as well or pure holes. allows you to do all kinds of constructions using the clamps that you can imagine. _I've done a few laptop/tool tables that I've attached to a railing when I've needed someplace to put down my laptops when working with a lift updating fixture firmwares etc.

just a steel plate with few holes, few screws to the super-clamps and clamp the super-clamp to the railing OUTSIDE of the basket where I am...

obviously no other personnel working close by... lets me put it down when i'm up at the ceiling.

All of your videos are explained much better than other utubers. I have learn't alot from you and I am very grateful. Thank you!😇

Just an add-on; you missed the really useful little triangular piece at the back, which comes off and goes inside the clamp, so you can clamp better on flat surfaces, like a table-top :)

Hi! I have a question: do you happen to know the shear strength of the 3/8" threaded end of the Reversible Short Stud? I've heard that the threaded portion on the brass stud (post) can break off at its base, in a setup where the force is exerted downward onto the sides of the stud (i.e., copy stand setup). Apparently, Manfrotto does not carry a Reversible Short Stud made of steel, nor does any other company out there.

I am planning to attach to the 3/8" thread in this order, extending horizontally outward: tripod ball head, SWEBO focus rail, Canon EOS 500D, Pentax-A 645 200mm telephoto lens, microscope objective. The total weight on the stud's threaded portion (including lens adapters and QR plate) should be about 6 pounds.

I'm concerned about the stud's strength, as my subjects for macro photography are inclusions in fossil amber, with some specimens valued at hundreds of dollars. It would be disastrous if the setup would fail due to a weak brass stud.

Could this clamp on to a square shaped object that is very close to 2.17 inches?
