Comments about Rycote 037701 Hot Shoe Extension/Extender (20 cm):
I use this for my 7D. I have a H4n and a Rode shotgun mic on it. It works fantastic. It is light and durable. However, due to its length if you're using it on the camera without a shoulder rig, it becomes quite a handful. But put the camera on the tripod and it looks quite organized.

I mount a LED light and H4N zoom to my Canon T2i. It gets the job done but it becomes loose easily and there is no "safe" way to set your camera down. I'm still in search a more balanced, steadier, and secure option of attaching my additional devices for my Canon T2i

Using with Nikon D3s. Allows the use of both Sennheiser mic and Litepanels Micro light. Provides enough breathing room for both accessories.

I got this to mount an on camera light, shotgun mount, and I have plenty of room to spare. I could easily mount a Wireless Lav receiver as well or some other accessory. Feels sturdy. I can use this with confidence.

I bought this for use on a Sony FX-1, so I could mount a wireless receiver and a stereo mic on top (my set-up for weddings and the like). These in turn plug into an external mic mixer mounted underneath the camcorder. Previously, I only had room on the shoe for one item. I had to mount the microphone up top, and carry the receiver on my belt, or fasten it to the tripod with Velcro. These options didn't appeal to me, but I was resigned to them. Then I saw this device from Rycote that answered everything. It fastens to the cold shoe mount on the FX-1 at a 90 degree angle and adds 10 inches of holding capacity. It even has a little room left over for a small video light. It's quite well made. The downside, however, is twofold; 1. It's a bit pricey, and 2. I didn't think of it first.
Considering the problem it solved, I'd recommend it wholeheartedly.

A bit pricey but well made and very handy for when you need to mount more than one item on your camera's shoe.
