You can connect any payload to it, like a camera, strobes, flashes, ham antenna, lamps, lights, Christmas ornaments, anything imaginable so as long you get the right connectors and redneck engineer approved contraptions.
The main reason I got this was for getting lower reach and holding at different angles my 5D SR/MIV cameras and non super-telephoto lenses or my flashlights or strobes. Also my Alpha MagLoop Antenna and UHF/HF Antenna connect nicely to it, if I want to stick them out of my house while not being visible to my communist HOA and its patrolling comrades.
The stiffness, which is a boon for performing the acrobatic works this snake can do can be a bane, if you want a little more flexibility for maneuverability. But that is minor trouble, for the load this beast can carry.
Build quality is what you expect from Manfrotto - Spectacular. Price is reasonable around $30 to $35. I will probably end up getting a couple more, given it has broaden my imagination of what it can do after using it for the last few months.
I will give this a 4.8 out of 5. Don't worry about this snake, buy it, it will not bite you - Pinky Promise.
Suggestion - Sea Sucker makes great suction cup based camera mount (among other do-daddles) that can handle 210lb pull force (I have hung my 180 lb self from it a couple of times) and has 1/4 inch male threads. If you get a 1/4 inch female to female attachment, the Sea Sucker can suck this snake to do amazing things while being firmly planted to whatever surface it sucks on. Plus it is a Made in USA product from a local Florida Dude.
I've since used it for all sorts of odd jobs outside its intended studio use, including sometimes as a makeshift tripod for my 50D DSLR. I've had it over a year, in and out of the ocean, and it is still as strong and rugged as when it was new. For those of you wondering how well it will hold up in the studio, I have no doubt that it will outlive you.
It should be noted that it is big and heavy, and it is not easy to bend the flex arm. I assume this is what gives it its strength to hold up whatever it is that needs to be help up, be it lighting, a DSLR or whatever odd job you find for it.

First off this thing is STRONG ! Looking at it in pictures and videos makes it look kinda flimsy but be confident when I say this will hold my Nikon D750 with battery grip and Nikon 24-70mm lens with a transmitter in the hotshoe ! Wow
Fits great and works great with the Manfrotto super clamp.
So far so good with the durability. Only time will tell if this holds up and stays strong for the long haul but for now I have no complaints.
Also just to be clear even though this is super strong it is NOT heavy at all.
I don't know how Manfrotto did it but they did.
Since this happened to at least one other person, Manfrotto should check this issue before distributing these.
I still gave the product four stars because it is quite a useful tool. I am attaching it with a superclamp to a Manfrotto monopod and attaching a shotgun mic to it, as well as a Zoom H2. This setup makes me look like a professional news reporter. Pretty cool. :-) It will be great for recording bands, as the whole unit doesn't take up anymore room than my profile.
UPDATE 3/13/12: After using this item for a while longer in the field, I found that the hand tightening of the troublesome bolt has held.
