TARION Tabletop Light Stand Clip - 35-63cm Adjustable Metal Table Mount Lighting Monopod with 1/4 Screw and 1/4 to 3/8 Screw Adapters for Live Streaming Video Photography Shooting (S)

Great addition to my desk at work to hold my webcam just behind my screen. It’s easier to dust the top of my screens now. Someone else at work bought one too!

I use this to hold a camera just above monitor height, which I use as a webcam - the adjustable stand is very sturdy once clamped to the desk, so there's no wobble. I've also used it to hold an LED light panel with similar success.

When I started putting together my home video studio, I needed a light stand that wouldn't break the bank. That’s when I came across the TARION stand. It's budget-friendly and does its job for lightweight tasks, but I'd be hesitant to mount anything more valuable than a basic light on it. It feels like it’s made of metal, possibly aluminium, which sounds promising. But, when you mount something on top, it tends to shake a bit. It’s somewhat sturdier when you don’t fully extend it, but I wouldn’t say it’s rock-solid. A fixed top screw means no angle adjustments, which isn’t a problem for my setup. But it's something to consider if flexibility is what you're after. A nice touch, though, is the included screw adapters. They're super handy, allowing you to attach various bits of equipment, be it lights or cameras. To wrap it up, the stand is decent for basic tasks. If you're on a tight budget and just need something simple, it'll do. But if you've got pricier gear, you might want to invest in something a tad more robust.

I paid GBP 12.99 for this and it's very sturdy, does the job nicely. Mostly metal, not much plastic. Great value for this price, other brands would be at least double.

I've bought two of these now, one for a mirrorless camera and another for a keylight - clamed perfectly at the back of my desk. These stands are sturdy but lightweight - I may use one as an arm extender when vlogging out and about. The clamps securely hold the pole in place. The thread adapter for different size screws has come in handy too, though I've ended up using ball heads on top so I can adjust the light and cam properly. Ideal if like me you travel and need to take your desk setup with you.

Strong and sturdy and easily set up

Cheap, which is good does it's job. The only issue I found is that this such stand does not offer 1/4 adjustable 360 Degree Swivel Mini Ball Heads which would of been nice to have. Other than that, it serves it's purpose.

I use this to mount my polystyrene head to practice flash photography,,his name is Jed.
