The aluminum-constructed 1241 Cold Shoe from SmallRig directly mounts to any camera accessory with 1/4"-20 or M2.5 threads so it can be used to mount your camera to rigs, brackets, and cages. You can adapt a microphone, video light, or other accessory to the mount, just follow the arrows at the top that show the direction to slide the accessory in. The bending bevels inside the mount prevent the accessory from sliding out or becoming accidentally removed.
