We bought this clapper for our local film company. It's very well constructed and looks to be versatile. We expect to enjoy using this for many of our productions.

I got this for my husband for Christmas. Looking at it you will think that the iPad clicks in to the other side of the clap board because thats what it appears in the photos and that is why I purchased it. WRONG! When the box arrived there was the clapboard and a white elastic band. I then realized that the elastic band was to hold the iPad to the clap board. The iPad does not sit or click flush onto the clapboard, you have to hold it against it with one elastic band. The space on top is even too big for the iPad. Product is not how it seems, absolutely not made specially for an iPad. Also like above review the screws came out of ours. Pretty disappointed as I got this for my husband as a present and it was not what it seems. Look very very closely at the picture and you can make out the elastic band around the bottom of the iPad.

I thought the days of clapboard were over with the software synchronization of multiple cameras. When I faced a multitude of clips, some of them long and combining multiple scenes and all looking alike, I changed my mind. Because I am shooting video with chroma screen, everything looks the same. I had to spend lots of time looking for the right spot in my clips. I also wanted to be able to check the sound synchronization through other means, just in case. The clapboard is a great way to be able to get to identify the right scene in the video clip. It also enforces the discipline of breaking long clips into shorter scenes. This clapboard is solidly built, provides clear and sharp "clap" sound and can be used to check the color balance.

I really am very happy with this product, its durable, clean, very reasonably priced. It was a great investment, it saved me a lot of time in the editing room.

These things always seem to break. And I always need to buy another one. And I'm always shocked that it isn't $10. This thing gets the job done, but I give it a couple of months on set before it inevitably snaps (like its five predecessors).

This is a solid, well-built simple slate. No timecode or any bells and whistles, but it's easy to read and has a magnetic clapper that makes for a clean and clear slate mark.

Super Nice Slate. This is made of good-pro quality material! Everything is etched in, not a decal. I used it to sync a 3 cam, ISO recorded project with perfect results. The price is perfect for a small company, like mine.

It's a solid slate. Though one of the three screws/nuts at the hinges loosened and was lost. So I'm gonna now have figure out an alternative, so it doesn't do it again (lock nuts, glue, etc)
