How to use

Attach a microphone, LED light or wireless receiver into the cold shoe slot and, if needed, secure additional accessories using the 1/4-inch thread to connect to a tripod, extension arm or adapter. Verify that all attachments are stable before recording and keep cables routed to avoid obstructing camera controls or lenses.

Recommendations

For best results, use lightweight microphones and lights that match the mount’s low-profile design to maintain balance. When shooting dynamic action, check accessory tightness periodically and route cables to minimize snagging. Store the mount separately or leave it attached to the camera in a protective case to prevent scratches.
