The Platypus Clamp is a compact grip clamp for creating a mounting point for compatible lighting and production accessories on suitable set structures and support points. It helps crews build controlled, space-conscious setups when a conventional floor stand is not the best option.
Consider it alongside a Mafer Clamp, Cardellini Clamp, or Mag Clamp with Baby Pin to match the mounting point to the job.
