✅ Pros & What Makes It Good
Solid build and materials make it durable for studio / on‑location use.
The 2″ jaw opening gives more versatility compared to the 1″ version: thicker materials, larger backdrops etc.
Silver finish might help in aesthetic integration with silver/metal setups; less of a heat absorption issue (depending on use).
Lifetime warranty is a plus.
Coated handles & tips help with grip and prevent scratching whatever you clamp onto.
⚠️ Drawbacks / Things to Check
The silver finish may reflect light; if you’re using it in lighting setups, that could cause unwanted reflections. The black version is non‑reflective. Design Info+1
Although strong (10 kg), for very heavy gear this may still be insufficient. Always check what you are clamping / the safety margin.
The spring‑clamp type means you’ll need enough force to open it; it may fatigue over very long use (but warranty and build materials mitigate that).
💡 Price & Availability in India / Bengaluru
Design Info lists it for ₹284 (incl. 18% GST), with 26 units in stock. Design Info
Many online stores carry other “Rock Solid A Clamp” clamps; the black one (2″) is listed around ₹293 at Design Info. Design Info
Availability seems good via online stores (Design Info etc.). Might need to check shipping time/cost to Bengaluru.
🔍 Local Search / Alternatives
I couldn't find exact retail store names in Bengaluru from the search I did. But what you could try:
Large camera gear / photo‑video stores in Bengaluru: check stores like Prasad’s, Raja & Damsons, or smaller camera shops in Chickpet / MG Road
Online marketplaces: Design Info, Tanotis, Amazon India, etc.
You might also consider the black version if aesthetics or reflection is concern; price difference seems small.
If you want, I can pull up a few live local listings in Bengaluru with photos, stock status, and delivery time, so you can decide quickly. Do you want me to do that?
