Here's what other sites are saying:

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"In a tight spot? Absolutely. With up to 30% less head width than any other micro cam, Black Diamond C3 Camalots fit in more places more securely. The C3’s broader middle lobe overlaps and interlocks with the opposing cams, maintaining its narrow width and maximizing contact area. Three compression springs independently drive each cam for increased holding force and contact in irregular placements. Their thin profile and unique stems are laterally stiff for slotting in tight placements, but flexible over edges for a more evenly dispersed load. Easy to grab, even with gloves on, their cable loops provide ample room for clipping in short or with a draw. Black Diamond Camalot C3 Features: Technical Information Averaging 30% narrower heads than any other 3- or 4-cam units on the market. Patent-pending interlocking cams allow for solid placements in narrow constrictions and pin scars. Patent-pending compression drive springs push each cam indepently with greater force so they hold better in tough placements. U-stem design provides a balanced combination of stiffness and flexibility. Ribbed trigger and thumb rest improve handling when you're really pumped. Color-coded units and slings for quick and easy ID."

From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Black Diamond Camalot C3 (Fall 2009) The Camalot C3 by Black Diamond will fit in far more places more securely. Compact interlocking and overlapping cams allow for solid placements that will not lever out. Compression drive springs push each cam with significantly greater force and because each cam is driven by a different spring, each cam is truly independent. Their unique stem design offers flexibility and strength-laterally stiff for tight placements but soft as a noodle over edges. This improved flexibility disperses a load more evenly, minimizes deformation and makes the units inherently stronger.Camalot C3 #000 Weight: 55 g (1.94 oz) Strength: 4 kN N (899 lbf) Range: 7.8 12.9 mm (0.30 0.50 in) Camalot C3 #00 Weight: 57 g (2.01 oz) Strength: 6 kN N (1349 lbf) Range: 9.0 13.7 mm (0.35 0.54 in) Camalot C3 #0 Weight: 59 g (2.08 oz) Strength: 7 kN N (1574 lbf) Range: 10.7 15.8 mm (0.42 0.62 in) Camalot C3 #1 Weight: 62 g (2.19 oz) Strength: 10 kN N (2248 lbf) Range: 12.0 18.8 mm (0.47 0.74 in) Camalot C3 #2 Weight: 66 g (2.33 oz) Strength: 10 kN N (2248 lbf) Range: 14.2 22.6 mm (0.56 0.89 in)"

From Backcountry.com:
"The Black Diamond Camalot C3 has an incredibly narrow head profile for fast, secure placements where other cams can't even think about going. Its head is 30% narrower than any three- or four-cam unit available-place gear in that tiny solution pocket your finger won't even fit in. The Camalot C3 uses interlocking lobes and an internal dual-stem design to achieve its slim profile and smooth action. Independent trigger springs allow each cam lobe to operate freely and to fit tiny irregularities in the crack. The large thumb loop makes this Black Diamond cam easy to place when you're pumped stupid and allows you to clip in short while aid climbing for that extra two inches of reach."
