Pros:
Attaches Firmly, Good Stability, Large Range of Motion, Strong Clamp
Best Uses:
Long Exposures, Photography, Reducing Noise (ISO Reduction), Stabilization
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Had to use locktite on the mounting screw because it wouldn't stay in the camera. Took a little getting used to because it is smaller than a regular tripod quick release, but the weight savings are worth it. It works very well, swivels to any position and locks there tightly with ease. Beats the heck out of just screwing your camera on top of a bare stick!
