Solid Arm Holding Arm with Padded Clamp - Auxiliary Mount for Cameras

In this review the Solid Arm is evaluated as a practical auxiliary mounting arm for creators who already use the Elgato modular rigging system. The bottom line: it is best for streamers, podcasters and small studio setups that need a tidy extra mounting point because the arm adds a secure, compact pole that clamps to a Master Mount and accepts any device with a 1/4-in thread. Installation is straightforward and the hardware feels durable, making it a useful add-on where a simple, well-made mounting solution is required.

Key Features

• Auxiliary Mounting: Adds an extra horizontal steel pole to your existing multi mount so you can position a camera, light or mic without altering the main setup.
• 1/4-in Ball Head: The included ball head with a 1/4-in screw gives a quick and versatile attachment point for common cameras and accessories.
• Durable Construction: Built from steel and hard composite materials to resist flex and provide a stable mounting point for light to moderate gear.
• Padded Clamp: The clamp that secures the arm to the Master Mount is padded to protect finishes while keeping the arm firmly in place.
• Premium Finish: A high-quality black powder coating helps the arm blend with studio rigs and resist surface wear over time.
• Modular Compatibility: Designed to work with the Elgato multi mount system so it integrates cleanly into an existing modular rigging workflow.

Who It's For

The Solid Arm is aimed at content creators who already own the Elgato multi mount modular rigging system and need an additional, compact mounting point for a camera, small light or microphone. It suits streamers, videoconferencing setups and small studios that prioritize tidy, repeatable positioning and a durable feel.

It is not intended for heavy cinema lenses, large studio lights or photographic rigs that exceed typical desk-mounted loads; customers requiring long reach or heavy-load support should look for a dedicated articulated arm or professional studio boom designed for heavier gear.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Well-made steel construction provides a solid-feeling auxiliary mount for additional gear.
• The included ball head with 1/4-in screw makes attaching cameras and lights quick and versatile.
• Padded clamp and powder coating protect finishes and provide a clean, professional look.
• Integrates neatly into the Elgato modular rig, keeping setups compact and repeatable.

Cons

• Some users report it struggles with heavier devices and may need readjustment when supporting more weight.
• Length is fixed and relatively short, so it is not a substitute for a long reach boom arm.
