NICEYRIG Cold Shoe Adapter 3-pack 🎧
Description:
This compact cold shoe mount adapter is designed to add a secure accessory point to cameras and rigs, making it easier to attach a microphone, flash or monitor while keeping components stable during shoots. It works as a small but effective solution for expanding mounting options and preventing accessories from sliding forward, ideal for run-and-gun setups or tabletop recordings.
Key Points
The adapter offers a low-profile way to extend a camera's mounting versatility. A small stop screw keeps mounted accessories from sliding out of position, so microphones and lights stay aligned when you move or adjust the rig. The pack contains three identical units, which is convenient for multi-camera shoots or for distributing mounts across a cage, top handle and monitor arm. 📷
Compatibility is broad, as the adapter fits any standard 1/4"-20 threaded hole used on cages, top handles, shoulder rigs and EVF mounts. This means you can use the mount on compact rigs as well as larger setups, offering flexibility without adding bulk. The inclusion of two M2.5 threads provides additional fixation points for small accessories or custom brackets. 🔩

Practical Tips
When fitting the adapter, tighten the small screw that locates accessories into the shoe to ensure they remain in the correct position. If you mount heavier flashes or larger monitors, check the connection periodically during long shoots, especially after moving the camera, to confirm screws remain secure. For lightweight accessories such as on-camera microphones or LED panels, the adapter provides a discreet and sturdy mounting point that keeps the setup compact and manageable. 🎛️
Usage Recommendations
Use one adapter on a camera cage near the top handle to add a microphone while leaving a second unit free for a small LED light on a monitor arm. The pack of three makes it simple to create a symmetric configuration or to reserve spares in your kit bag. Consider that the adapter relies on standard 1/4"-20 threads, so it will pair best with rigs and accessories that follow common camera industry sizing, according to the manufacturer.
