I was wondering if anyone here uses the ULCS TriPOD Clamp? Not sure when it came out, but it seems recent.
The main question I had was that it seem that w/ the cutaway of the clamp around the ball joint, that structurally, it would be weaker so wouldn't withstand the same tightened pressure as the regular clamps from ULCS.
Any first hand experiences from anyone?
The pic included is of both the UCLS regular TriClamp as well as their TriPod Clamp.
-------------------
"Tripod Clamp (AC-TRI) - Use this unique clamp to create a tripod out of three arm segments. Cut away edges on the clamp allow the arms to stand up straight. The top of the clamp has a 1/4-20 thread to mount directly in a mounting hole, however most people like to install a 1/4-20 ball (base adapter) to this bolt. Install another ball to your camera and connect the two with a Standard Clamp to make a custom ball head."
