The item should have included a 1/4 20 stud so the shoe adapter could be installed at the tripod threaded hole on the bottom of my DSLR. Will have to construct a stud to allow microphone to be installed. I know this is not the norm, prior to I purchased the ring light which will be installed in the flash shoe mount. This is for HD video only....

I used this to connect a strobe to a light stand. It hold tight and does its job. My only issue with it is even though it is a "cold" hot shoe, my sb-800 wouldn't work in remote mode because of the metal contact. A quick strip of electrical tape on the shoe adapter, and I was in business though!

Comments about Pearstone Accessory Shoe Adapter with 1/4"-20 Socket Connection:
I used this with a nice monitor ball head from my iPhone when I want the best of both worlds. This this is built very well but the plastic feel makes me a bit nervous cause if this thing ever drops with my tripod it feels like its going to break. But I do like the locking pin from all others.

Comments about Pearstone Accessory Shoe Adapter with 1/4"-20 Socket Connection:
Worked as promised. Pretty well maid. When I really tightened it down so the light I was connecting wouldn't turn, the sticky plate on the bottom of the shoe came loose. Other than that I'm very pleased with it.

Great accessory to have in your camera bag. I could easily and quickly mount my flash on my tri or mono pod to get some great off camera flash effects.
