TARION Camera Table Mount

I couldn’t be more pleased with the TARION Overhead Tripod Camera Desk Mount! I’ve gone through my fair share of mounts and tripods, but this one has truly exceeded my expectations. First off, the 360° flexible articulating arm is incredibly sturdy and offers precise control over positioning. Whether you’re using it for overhead shots or adjusting the angle for a close-up, it’s easy to find the perfect setup. The 3/8'' screw and included 3/8'' to 1/4'' screw adapter make it compatible with a wide range of equipment, from DSLR cameras to projectors and even ring lights. The build quality is top-notch, with a solid, heavy-duty design that gives me confidence that it will hold my camera or light securely. The arm is also surprisingly smooth to adjust, and I love how it locks in place without any slipping or wobbling. It’s perfect for my desk setup, and I can use it for everything from streaming and filming tutorials to setting up my projector for presentations. What I especially love is the space-saving design. It mounts easily to the desk without taking up too much room, and I can quickly reposition it when needed. Whether you’re a photographer, streamer, or someone who needs a reliable tripod mount for various devices, this product is an excellent choice. Highly recommend it!

Very solid construction, high quality arm. The joints don't just rely on friction which stops them slipping. The weakest point is the table clamp which is expected, but even without any reinforcement it is solid enough to hold my DSLR.

There's obviously quite a big market for camera, microphone and light supports. There are also light and heavy versions of all of this lot and people have different requirements and expectations. The mixed reviews reflect this. I've tried loads of these professionally, from the big manufacturers at different price points - Manfrotto, SmallRig, Neewer etc - and this is essentially a good bit of solid kit at the price point. Basically, once you have it set up it's rigid and well made. I wanted to attach mine to a Manfrotto light table set-up to hold an LED light panel, so had to do a bit of engineering to get a solid fix onto tubular alloy at the base. On a table top it would be very quick and easy. The other thing to know, as others have flagged, is that the geared inserts (4 per joint) fall out if you slacken the joints. Tiredome. Ideally they would be 'captive' but that would involve the manufacturer a load more work and expense to pass on to end users. Re-assembling the joints is doable but fiddly, so be warned! Assuming you want this for a specific task (voicing microphone above your desk say...), once set up this would be an excellent choice. Unlike some magic arm solutions, regular adjustments will be a bit grungy and confined to one plane per joint. Don't let this out you off if you have a known requirement and plan to leave it more or less set up, as unlike some other options I've tried this is genuinely solid without whippy wobble, and can be moved into loads of positions. Things like the Manfrotto Magic Arm are smoother and more fluid to adjust but 2-3x the money and leave you with adjustments handles sticking out. I am buying a second one, so reservations accepted this should be some sort of recommendation.

Finally a sturdy camera arm that feels reliable and well-built. It’s very customisable and straightforward to set up. It comes with Allen keys, but I didn’t even need to use them. I was hesitant after reading a negative review, but I’m glad I ignored it. This arm works exactly as expected.

I have this set up for video use and it's sturdy and easily adjustable. This was just what I was looking for.

It is good and sturdy, though the desk connection grip area is quite small, you might want to pad it if you are mounting a heavy camera. It doesn't adjust like a tripod smoothly, it instead clicks mechanically, you would not want to adjust while filming something or broadcasting on zoom. Main issue is cleanliness, although boxed as new as you can see in photo it was dirty as if used for several months. Having cleaned it, is ok, but I would suggest look for another make that delivers new items.

It was fine - held my camera steady, was reasonably easy to adjust if a little clunky, but it worked. Then the screw thread sheared off. Stub of the screw still in the base of my camera, front UV filter shattered - fortunately the lens itself looks OK. I don't know what materials are used in the construction but I wouldn't advocate going anywhere near their load claims - stick to a small mirrorless or a mobile.

For under £50, this product is exceptionally good! Fpor me, weight has always been an indicator of quality, for most things at least anyways, and this item has some weight. It is well put together and the components are very high quality. Due to how the pivot points work it can be a little fiddly to get set up but this is a small price to pay as once in place it is exceptionally sturdy. I only use it with an iPhone but I am sure it will easy handle the weight of some big cameras due to the sturdiness of the build. Can't fault this product one bit at this price!!

I bought two of these desk-mount camera holders before I bought this one. The thing is I have a very limited amount of space. I have 3 monitors that I use on my computer. two of which are 27" displays, and one is a 32" display. Back when I only had the two 27" displays, I was able to use a gorilla pod and i had it just sitting on the desk to the right of my monitor. But when I upgraded to the 32", the camera was overlapping a lot of my screen. I moved the other 27" monitor to a desk-mounted arm that essentially has it floating off the table. But there was no room for the camera without blocking my screen. I tried a few different mounts that advertised being sturdy and being able to hold more than the weight I needed. but they all failed in one way or another. Either they wouldn't actually hold the advertised weight, or they would just shake a lot from just typing on my computer. Or they wouldn't be able to adjust to the exact height, angle, and area that I wanted it to be. When I bought this one, I was skeptical because of the price. but after setting it up and seeing how it works, I am totally a fan! because of the design of the elbows, its able to rotate and tilt in almost any direction imaginable. I was able to bring it down low and turn it to fit into the super awkward gap between the two monitors that I have. In fact, now with this device, I can scoot the screens closer together and just leave the lens of my DSLR camera peaking through. The best part is, even if i purposely shake my desk, it doesn't move much, so it seems very sturdy. even tapping on it with a little pressure doesn't make it sag or move around or anything. which I think is perfect! The other ones i had would sag if bumped. This one, once tightened, doesn't sag at all! It did come with a small ball head that would work well. But I wanted more adjustments and the ability of using a quick release, so I used an old ball head from Neewer that I don't use. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase!

Easy to assemble and really sturdy. The joints lock in rock solid and it gives the impression of being able to handle much more weight than what I have connected to it.

Ho acquistato questo braccio articolato TARION per avere un supporto da tavolo versatile per fotocamera e accessori. La costruzione è solida e dà subito una sensazione di stabilità: il morsetto si aggancia bene al piano e non si muove, anche con attrezzatura non leggerissima. Il braccio offre una buona escursione e tiene la posizione senza cedimenti, caratteristica importante soprattutto per riprese top-down, webcam professionali e microfoni. Il sistema di regolazione è fluido e permette di trovare rapidamente l’angolo di lavoro. Il fatto che sia inclusa la filettatura da 3/8” a 1/4” lo rende compatibile con la maggior parte delle fotocamere, luci e accessori da content creation. Non è leggerissimo, ma questo contribuisce alla stabilità generale. Per set-up molto pesati serve comunque verificare bene il serraggio, ma per DSLR leggere, mirrorless, smartphone, luci o microfoni è più che sufficiente. Pro • Struttura solida e stabile • Morsetto da tavolo molto robusto • Buona regolazione e tenuta della posizione • Filettatura adattatore inclusa Contro • Non il più leggero (ma è un vantaggio per la stabilità) • Va serrato bene con setup pesanti In sintesi: supporto affidabile, ben costruito e versatile. Perfetto per chi crea contenuti da scrivania e vuole un sistema stabile che si regola velocemente.

Using this for an old DSLR to do a top down view of my workbench. Works pretty well and is very stable. Probably getting another one.

This is a strong desk mount with versatility. Good value for your cash. I bought 2 of this and mounted them for my preferred configuration. It functions excellentlyand mountable for sure.
