SmallRig Camera Cable Clamp 3685

I use a cage on my Sony Alpha ZV-E10 and it uses a micro HDMI port. These are tiny ports and due to normal handling they get get a little glitchy. I use the camera for "studio" shooting only and wanted to connect the HDMI out to a 24" monitor as I shoot. By using these clamps, the cable jack never moves and puts no pressure on the port. Same thing with the USB output on the Sony. It looks like overkill maybe, but I don't want to worry about anything other than the picture when I'm shooting. Now the plastic isn't as strong as it could be, I've already broken once of these clamps, the thinned release part of it. Not great, but I'd rather spend the $5 per clamp then have an issue with the jacks on the camera. I also use one on the back of the monitor to hold the other end of the HDMI cable when shooting. Again, it's a little insurance and one less thing to worry about.

I originally talked at the price for these since they're plastic and twice as much as some other metal options. But after buying the metal ones, I wish I had purchased these in the first place. They're easier to use because, unlike most metal options, attaching these to your rig and clamping down the cables are two separate operations, which drastically simplifies installation. I got so sick of having to hold the cables *just right* while trying to use a hex key to screw down the metal clamps - especially when clamping down two cables at once. These plastic clips make it so much easier and less frustrating. I will say there is a bit of trial and error when trying to close the clamp on a thicker cable or multiple cables; you have to make sure the snap fully engages so it doesn't immediately pop open. But once I've gotten it to fully snap, I've never had an issue with it coming loose, even on all-day shoots. And the fact that you get four of these instead of one metal clamp does help mitigate the cost a lot. So overall, I highly recommend these over the simpler metal cheapo clamps. Happy shooting!

I got these to clean up my Universal Video Cage setup. A dedicated onboard hub’s cable needed it. It’s too bad the Video Cage designers forgot this product existed. They left out a lot of potential locations to mount these out of the way, like in the corners. Otherwise, they interfere with handle mounting. I almost feel cheated but I knew it going in. It’s still unfortunate, though… to have a cable solution and a problem needing to be solved, and yet they’re mostly incompatible.

I went back and forth about whether to get these or not. I have other restraining mechanisms for my wires, but these looked promising. I am very happy I got them - they are the easiest to use wire clamps I have. They screw in, so they have a good solid mount (no adhesives to come off). The clamping works great and they hold a range of cable sizes.

I love me some small rig but sometimes they miss the mark. The foam that's inside the clamp on both sides is very rigid and unforgiving which is good to keep the cables snug but the problem is using a small gage HDMI cable or USB cable is pushing it. You need them to be the micro-size gauge cables to even work properly. If you do manage to get the clamp shut, the little notch that keeps them shut will come undone or break. Now, with that said you can simply cut out some of the foam to better fit your cables and after doing so they fall right into the category that smallrig is known for, and that making nicknacks that are useful and make a difference for a good price. just wish they were a little more flexible and or the clip was stronger. but again a slight modification and these work fine. so no worries and I'll buy more or look for other versions that provide a little more size gauge cable.

Perfection! Lightweight and perfect design. Check them out for yourself, you will feel the same

I thought I’d be able to lock multiple cables - and I can, as long as the cables are thin. But lock them they do, and very firmly. Easy to snap open and closed.

Fits a USB cable, but is very tight for a microphone cable.

De esos accesorios que siempre debes tener.

These clean up the area around your camera rig very well and are inexpensive enough that they become essential. Easy to use and quick to charge cables and locations.

They do be clampin, but they’re kinda big and bulky

Too bulky cable ties tidier. Was charged postage for return. Not impressed.
