Comments about Zylight Hotshoe Ball Mount:
I recently dove into the "video with your dslr" world. Video is great, but audio not so much. So using a recorder - Zoom h4n, a good combination was made. But when the recorder is connected to the camera on the hotshoe, the screen it facing up. This makes it hard to see levels and changes things if needed if i need to view the video at the same time. In comes this handy device - The hotshoe mount. Now once this is connected to the hotshoe of the camera, I can angle the Zoom on the ball mount, allowing it to face me directly so I can view my levels and video at the same time.
I'm thinking of buying additional mounts, as it has many other uses other than just sitting on the hotshoe of a camera.

I bought this one because I had read reviews about the cheaper one at BnH not being very good. I'm glad I did, this one is very durable, strong and easy to use. highly recommend it.

Seeing as how it is so difficult to find a Camera that can be used as a WebCam as well as a CamCorder, Using the Hotshoe Ball Mount to mount a Samsung HMX-S10 CamCorder atop of a Canon XL1 (set as our WebCam). This allows us to aim the CamCorder and record exactly at what the WebCam is braodcasting.
