Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. The photo shows the arm with two heads but no heads come with the arm, what is the part number for the heads? Are the heads for attaching cameras have 1/4 20 threads screws?
A: This item has multiple mounts for camera/tripod heads. You can attach as many as 4 heads but it does not come with the heads. If you click on the following link, you will see all the compatible heads; https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?sortType=default&Ns=p_OVER_ALL_RATE%7c1&ci=140&fct=fct_head-type_1544%7cball-heads%2bfct_head-type_1544%7cgeared-heads%2bfct_head-type_1544%7cpan-tilt-heads%2bfct_head-type_1544%7cpistol-grip-heads&srtclk=sort&N=4075788769&
Q: 2. can this arm work with other tripods such as Sunpak tripod? i seem to be having trouble on screwing the arm on to my tripod.
A: The Manfrotto 131DBB is compatible with tripods that have 3/8 threads.
Q: 3. Is there an adapter that allows it to be attached to a light stand?
A: There may be some adapter out there that could be used but it would be a sloppy fit. I have mine mounted to a Manfrotto tripod that has a geared center post. This setup is ROCK SOLID when taking photos with studio lighting.
Q: 4. Could this fit safely on a manfrotto befree (weight limit around 8lbs)? Or is there a safe weight limit?
A: The befree supports 17lbs, so it should be ok.
Q: 5. which brand tripod will this fit on?
A: Any tripod with a 3/8"-16 mounting screw (almost all of them) or 1/4"-20 (using a bushing adapter) will work with this dual mount arm. Due to the increase in load/torque using this mounting arm, we recommend a heavier duty tripod for more stability.
Q: 6. Does it come with the two camera support platforms/clamps shown in the photo?
A: Yes the Manfrotto 131DDB Tripod Accessory Arm for Four Heads (Black) comes with the two camera supports on top and one on each side as shown in the photos.
Q: 7. There is a significant price difference between the black version of this arm ($123) and the silver version ($170). That is a big difference for a difference in color. Are the two versions the same in features? Is the silver version made of a higher grade metal?
A: Currently the price difference is not as broad as this. As to why there is a any difference in price, we would go with the explanation the chrome plating costs more. Also know that retail pricing is not linear. It is based on cost, supply and demand. Those factors are what determine price. A much cheaper price might reflect too much inventory and the product must be moved. A high price might reflect short supply and high demand as well as manufacturing cost.
Q: 8. What is the diameter of the pipe?
A: It's metric, 3.1 cm (a bit over 1 3/16 ).
Q: 9. Does this have standard 25mm ball mounts?
A: The Falcam F22 Dual-Head Quick Release Magic Arm Kit has industry standard ball mounts.
Q: 10. Will it work on Odyssey 7Q+ and Sony FS700? Or should I use another Magic Arm? Thanks.
A: The 244 Variable Friction Magic Arm with Camera Bracket is much heavier than you need for that application, in my opinion. Depends on your rig or setup. But a smaller extension device will likely be more acceptable.
