A good clamp
I have to say i am not a professional and i bought it in case i have to stabilize my camera and i have no space for a tripod.
It's not something i use everyday, but i did use it, it worked fine.
It's hard and heavy, with a really strong grip. Really strong actually. You have to be careful to not ruin the support. Maybe the only cons are the length of the handle that makes it difficult sometimes to rotate it and the fact that they are made of plastic (it's a high quality and hard plastic though)

Clamps to anything
These clamps are so useful! They really will clamp to just about anything. They're nice and secure on a 50mm lighting bar but will also happily clamp to a table top. When you combine a pair of them with a magic arm you end up with a really flexible, useful mounting system that will allow you to position whatever it is that you're using securely and in whatever position you need it in. The plastic insert that they're provided with to allow clamping to flat surfaces is easily lost and there's no way of retaining it on the clamp when not in use, but I've found that mine clamp to flat surfaces well without it anyway.

Superb clamps - clamp to anything - and fast connect!
I've used a couple of these for several years for clamping lights onto speaker stands. They have gigged exceedingly well and are absolutely solid. No failures - not surprising they are so solidly built.
They clamp onto pretty much anything. I am using these on my new truss because the speed at which you can get lights on and off using the quick release system bolts just makes set up and tear down a lot faster. I use these with Adam Hall SS018 bolts which works really well - and you do need to buy the bolts separately.
The only downside is they are a little weighty, but unless you are carrying a bag full of them this isn't a problem. Ive no found the need to use the insert - it works great without it.

The gold standard
You can't go wrong with this one. I've attached this to a Gravity Vari-pole and it - unsurprisingly - holds the magic arm that holds my 970gr DSLR without issues.
You should have at least a couple lying around, they can be used in numerous scenarios and the build quality is top-notch.

Typically Solid
Very handy things to have! Typical indestructible Manfrotto build quality built to last years. Can attache to poles and flat objects (tables etc). Great for photography / video grip as well as live music / stage applications.

Strong, Versatile & Top Quality
Originally bought to clamp my laser to an overhead bar. Now I use it in conjunction with a Manfrotto flexible arm to mount my DSLR on my overhead bar. Absolute faith in its ability and strength. Tons of potential uses in disco, photography, lighting and décor.

Stolid piece of gear
Everybody should have some of these in their kit, they're strong, durable, and will come in handy.

A must have for anyone working with lighting
A clamp that can be fixed to almost everything, takes hex-based studs in order to attach a flash, a mic, ball-head to whatever you can think of.
I am using this clamp to attach my camera to rails, poles when I am travelling instead of setting up a tripod every single time. I also use it to set up flashes on location. Everyone should have at least one of these.

The well known Superclamp, newer disapoints, i would recomend this clamp to all none moving fixtures, it offers great versatilety with the click n' fasten stud system, it saves clamps if you have alot of different fixtures, but only use some of them , great for fastening on many surfaces, other than truss!

Never enough superclamps
You can't have enough of these. I used to have the slightly less expensive ones by Stairville, but the nut was smaller and stripped easier. This one feels much better and tolearances seem thighter, and joining studs fit easier than on the stairville.
It is good for mounting to almost anything that's not too wide.
There is one problem, though: I never have enough!
