    Does anyone own one and know how much weight it will hold? ive been using a manfrotto 7" http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/produc...tic_Arm_7.html

    Looking to see how they compare. Id rather get the RED for 7 dollars more. Ive been using it for a zacuto evf, but would like it to hold a second monitor if needed. also does it come with 3/8 stud on one side or 1/4 20 on both sides?

    Thanks

    does that mean you would not recommend it? which 80 dollar one are you speaking of? the manfrotto 5 inch?

    the red one is good, a bit spendy to what i would expect to pay for such an item. the arm that smallhd makes, under dp6 accessories.

    I have a 9" red arm. Then ordered a 9" NOGA arm. Build quality and functionality exactly the same except the RED arm is much more compact even though same length. Wish I had ordered a second RED arm instead of the NOGA brand. Only reason I did is because I needed it ASAP and BH shipped same day. RED can take days to ship even overnight orders.
