I am assuming you want to use this clamp to set up an off camera flash. If that's the case, you will need some type of flash shoe that can be attached to the stud of the super clamp (or light stand). Manfrotto sells such a piece, it's called a Double Ball Joint Head(part #155). It comes with a camera plate which you can attach a flash shoe. his unit will provide full adjustment of position, pitch, angle, and direction of your flash at the mere turn of a handle. If you try to rig it without such an accessory you risk damage to you flash unit and severely limit it's functions. Be a pro, get the right tools for the job.

It really depends on what are you trying to do? These clamps will hold your camera and place your flashes separate it will be on top of your camera. Normally you would not need an extra shoe for your flash

I use and recommend the Neewer S-Type Bracket Holder with Bowens Mount for Speedlite Flash (available on Amazon around $20). It's far easier to mount and operate than the other bowens speedlite adaptors.

Not as is. This product is designed to fit on a standard light stand. Even A cheaper light stand is much better than a tripod for flash mounting and is worth the investment if you plan to do off camera flash.

One mounts onto your hot shoe, the other goes to your strobe/flash. The strobe end has a 1/4" tripod thread on the bottom and it is also designed to slide onto a hot shoe type mount.

It used the hot shoe on the camera for support. It doe not get in the way of the built-in flash. If you can find another way to support the on-camera part, I assume you can then add an additional flash.

This is a very versitile rig, the extra rail makes it so you can attach more shoes. My light is fixed to the top shoe and ive attached a tascam to the side extention rail. It did come wih 1-2 additional shoes So as far as attaching 2-3 additional items other than the camera, i would say yes.

I use Nikon Speedlight Flash only and it works just fine. I like this mount, it is very solid

This is not required for your Yongnuo flash. Your flash will work directly mounted to the t4i hot shoe. The off shoe mount allows you to hold the flash to the side so you can get indirect lighting.

I use a piece of Velcro to attach it the side of the flash when the flash is mounted.

I don't know for certain as I have a Nikon speed light. It seems adjustable for probably will fit many flashes.

Yes, any mic that has a standard shoe can be added to the mounting bracket. A mini-shoe will need an adapter. (The mic that comes with the set is definitely not useful in any way so you definitely need to purchase a mic. The light that comes with the set is awesome and worth the buy.) The mounting bracket is strictly for holding the mic and does not connect to the camera.

It's not a flash just a lamp so if you just need an extra light sorce this will work. The shoe is not hot and can be mounted on the camera or tripod.

I have a d800 and it doesn't fit the shoe and I don't have a cable so I haven't used it yet

I have mounted Youngnuo and Nikon flashes on mine without any problems. Don't see any reason why a Pentax flash unit would be any different. The shoe on the bracket is adjustable to accommodate any variance in the width of the foot on the flash.

I would say yes you do, unless your flash has its own built-in threaded socket. Even if your flash has a threaded socket, the flash would then be stuck in one position, so having an adjustable mounting bracket should be more useful. I got some nice ball-and-socket brackets on-line, not at Amazon, for less than $7 each.

I don't have any nikon gear, but I think that it will support any flash with a hotshot attachment. The mount clamps down on the hotshoe to grip the flash.
