Camera clamp HAMA 00004566 for action cameras, plastic, black, 1/4 inch mounting

HAMA 00004566 is a lightweight plastic camera clamp for action cameras that provides a standard 1/4" mounting interface. Finished in black and weighing approximately 32 g, this clamp is intended to hold action cameras securely when attached to tripods, mounts or adapters. The simple design focuses on portability and basic mounting functionality for photo and video recording in travel and outdoor scenarios.

Advantages

The clamp is compact and lightweight, making it easy to carry and store. Its 1/4" threaded interface matches common camera tripods and adapters, offering wide compatibility with existing mounting systems. The plastic construction reduces weight while delivering adequate rigidity for most lightweight action cameras. The neutral black color provides unobtrusive appearance when mounted.

Suitable for

• Mounting lightweight action cameras to tripods and standard 1/4" mounts
• Travel and hiking where low weight and compact size are important
• Casual outdoor sports and simple photo/video setups
• Use with adapters or extension arms that accept 1/4" threads

When it may not be suitable

The plastic clamp is designed for lightweight action cameras and basic mounting tasks; it may not provide sufficient strength or durability for heavier camera bodies, large housings, or professional rigs. For demanding professional use, high-vibration environments, or mounting that requires locking hinges and metal construction, a more robust metal clamp or dedicated mounting system is recommended.

Key specifications

• Material: Plastic
• Colour: Black
• Mounting interface: 1/4" threaded mount
• Weight: approx. 0.032 kg

How to use

Attach the action camera or its adapter to the clamp’s 1/4" thread and tighten securely by hand or with a compatible tightening tool if needed. Then connect the clamp to a tripod, mount or adapter that accepts a 1/4" screw. Check the connection before use to ensure the camera is held firmly and that the clamp orientation suits the intended framing. When transporting, store the clamp in a protective pocket or small case to avoid scratches.

What to consider before purchase

• Compatibility with your camera or adapter's mounting thread (standard 1/4" thread)
• Weight of your camera and housing—suitable for lightweight action cameras
• Material preference—plastic construction is light but less robust than metal

Recommendations

Use this clamp for lightweight and low-risk mounting tasks such as travel, casual sports, or as a spare mounting accessory. Regularly inspect the clamp and mounting threads for wear, and avoid subjecting it to heavy loads or high-vibration situations.
