This is a review of the NEEWER Flexible Articulating 'Magic Arm' with Dual Ball Heads. It arrives in a cardboard box together with an Allen key. It has 3/8 and 1/4 securing screws with each base having a spring loaded, retractable locating pin – see photos. The actual engineering is first class, the balls are finely machined and smooth in movement, which is aided by rubber rings to prevent slippage with a quoted weight capacity of 5.5 kilos, so its well 'up to the job' as they say. In use it’s very handy for so many accessories - in my case, a monitor unit for my camcorder. Its actual physical size means it does not take up any room in my camera bag, either ‘flat out’ or folded up. Considering the workmanship involved and the load capacity, its perhaps a very handy accessory that will last well.

There's an intrinsic value to adaptability in the realm of photography, and this magic arm embodies that fully. Toting my camera gear around different locations, I found the solid structure reassuring - it's clearly built to last, yet not a burden to carry. The manoeuvrability is remarkable, with the dual ball heads allowing me to fine-tune my shots with a full range of motion. The anti-twist feature is a smart touch, enhancing the stability of my attached devices. Those elusive perfect angles became much easier to achieve, making this arm an integral part of my gear.

Versatile gadget for camera rig attachmentsThis little Neewer gadget is designed primarily for use with camera cages, onto which can be attached a range of accessories such as lighting, microphone, screen monitor etc.It measures 13cm in length with a ball and socket at each end which are both tightened and locked simultaneously by a central lock screw. One end has a standard ¼ inch thread and the other a 3/8 inch thread. Everything is made from lightweight alloy and all the movements are smooth and lock tightly.It’s a great gadget for attaching extra accessories to the camera rig.

Very good quality articulating magic arm from Neewer made from good materials and is built to last.The magic arm is strong and durable and due to the small size, being lightweight it can easily fit into your camera bag or even your pocket.I am impressed with this magic arm it does it’s job and does it very well, very easy to install/setup connect your field monitor, light, microphone etc to one end and the other end attach to your camera cage or anything you can screw in a 3/8 or 1/4 to.Overall I am very happy with the articulating magic arm and I would recommend it.

It is very good.

Muy buen producto, tienen una excelente fuerza de fijación, en mi caso la he usado para fijar una camara de video compacta laterial a mi camara de fotografía principal, y se fija muy bien.El acabado superficial del metal es muy buena, cumple mis expectativas, muy buen producto.

I have several other adjustable arms but they always came loose. This one is rock solid.

I got this to attach heavy accessories (v mount batteries) to a monitor cage, using the nato rail. The build quality is great, all metal, no plastic whatsoever.As a small con, I wish the lever of the tightening mechanism was smaller, or at least you could offset it using a spring, like most other products in the industry. Sometimes it gets in the way.

The media could not be loaded. Lo compré de oferta y ahora me arrepiento de no haber comprado otro más. Lo uso en las jaulas smallrig de mis blackmagic pocket para poner visor electrónico o monitor externo y poder ponerlos y quitarlos de una manera rápida y cómoda. Aguanta bien el peso de estos aparatos y como digo, si lo veo otra vez de oferta compraré un segundo.
